I presume you're more educated than me and you're continuing the geysir pun to an ignoramus of geysir's life story.
EDIT; yeah, you are, well done! Sorry for my lameness. Apparently there's only one Geysir, but many geysers! Quote from wiki; Geysir can hurl boiling water up to 60 metres in the air.Watch out lads!
On the bench for Blackburn today.
'And Crouch must score'
He came on with a couple of mins to go
San Marino are going to be a handful as the group goes on." - Steve Staunton reacts to performance against San Marino.
His first start in almost 16 months today.

Heskey was taken off with an injury alright
where do we go from here?
Glad to see him make it through 90 minutes unscathed.
He looked a little rusty and made a few errant passes, but that's to be expected.
By the second half he'd settled down a bit, and he played a part in one of Blackburn's goals by forcing the goalie to make a save by running into the box to head the ball, and that led to Santa Cruz banging in the goal (I think the second?).
He's got an engine in him as we all know, and he'll be a welcome addition to the squad in our quest for World Cup Qualification.
He was slide tackled from behind twice and I was happy to see him get up promptly each time.
Not a thunderous return, but a steady one, hopefully he'll get better with each game back.
Where was Steven reid today... Is he injured???
rested as there was a few games in a few days and he is only coming back from an injury, pretty basic really
In Trap we trust
Looks like he picked up a minor knock, could be back today against Sunderland: http://www.football365.com/story/0,1...014469,00.html
The former Wales boss made four changes and rested Steven Reid as the Republic of Ireland midfielder is carrying a slight calf injury.
Reid could return against Sunderland but Hughes is wary of rushing him back and has a host of midfield options including Robbie Savage, who failed to make the bench at Derby and has been linked with a move to the Black Cats.
"We freshened things up at the weekend because we've got a few little niggles," said Hughes.
"Steven Reid missed out so we'll have to check on him. He had a little tightness in his calf so with the injuries he's had and the time he's been out, I decided to lean on the side of caution.
"Hopefully he'll be out there but if there's any doubt he'll miss out again and we'll look to involve him at the weekend."
where do we go from here?
That match is on tomorrow (Wednesday) and the ever informative Sky Sports News alleges a very late fitness test before owt is confirmed on whether Reid plays a part or not.
On the way into the stadium, an elderly San Marino Steward waved us in and said "Tonight, may the best team win"
And they nearly did.
I'm not watching todays match but he's part of a very attacking lineup.
Pederson--Reid--Dunn--Bentley
----SantaCruz---McCarthy----
I assume he's playing quite deep. Anyone watching?
Delighted Reid played 90 minutes and Blackburn won. If they can win and dominate possession with that team away from home there's no reason we can't play the 2 Reid's in central midfield with 2 wide players imo.
watched the game today. Neat and tidy describes Reids performance in a very deep lying role. Chose his moments to join the attack very well and had a good shot on target from a free.
Andy O'Brien was fantastic for Bolton, in my opinion, and Joey O'Brien also played fairly well. Anyone seen him play midfield by the way? Cos he doesnt look a better option than Finnan.
Peach of a goal from Kevin Nolan.
I'm so livid with you turkeys. You're like a couple of... cool-looking idiots!
I saw the 2nd half only. Reid did well enough, though he seemed to be playing within himself & made a couple of careless errors. I was really impressed by Andy O'Brien, I thought he had a fine game and he's clearly the man to partner Dunne in my opinion. Joey did well enough, nothing too good but nothing bad.
Where was Joey O'Brien playing??... I like to hear that about Andy O'Brien, IMO he was second only to shay given in the campaig before last..
O'Brien was right full. Set up Bolton's goal with a good cross from the right.
Cheers...
Passing stats from yesterdays game.
Reid

Pedersen

Bentley

Success Rate - 63%
His overall pass success rate so far this season is 84% which is a huge percentage. He's certainly won me over for a central midfield slot with Carsley on the bench. It's a very good sign if Steven Reid was to be our least creative player in the team.
