    Would have predicted a draw for tonight's game but seen that Cliftonville have got a small defensive crisis at the moment so I'll go with a 2-0 home win

    Pitch hasn't recoved form the Northern Ireland v Denmark game and given the weather we have had recently the groundsman did superbly well to get it to that standard.

    That was the original idea... dunno why it never happened... maybe something to do with the PSNI.

    Their was a good crowd at the match 1000 or so Cliftonville and around 3000 Bluemen.

    Cliftonville may have brought more, hard to tell in the North Stand, we don't normally get crowds in their

    Steve i would have estimated 1400 cv and 4000 blues considering from where i was seated in the kop stand the south stand seemed full to capacity.

    Now Jeebus, that is a scurrilous use of a camera and obviously does not reflect the reality of the situation which is that they're simply drying it off.

    Oh because 2 or 3 tw@ts do that, the rest of us are the same.

    I've no love for the Republics flag at all, but I do not condone the sectarian statement of burning it. 99% of Linfield fans would be against Sectarian chanting/symbols/symbolic gestures.

    I'm sure it made a lot of your days seeing that. Some sad people.

    Well according to the Linfield fans favourite Redsman Mr Parker over on the ILS there were 1000 tickets sold by Cliftonville for this match! Probably would have had a few more going if it wasn't for the strict ticketing arrangements!

    Hmmm I think they may get in trouble for that with Belfast city council as burning flags outside of the summer flag burning season is strictly prohibited!

    Ha, it's a bit ironic that the little fire starter is wearing a green jacket whilst being surrounded by plenty of fans in blue

    Enough on the flag burning lads.

    It's the first time I've seen Cliftonville in action and I was a little disappointing. I've read a lot about them being a footballing side but they didn't seem to have a great game. I suppose that's down to them playing Linfield who are a very robust side and a better quality compared to what Cliftonville would normally face. Cliftonville looked very slight by comparison to Linfield's eleven.

    Peter Thompson looked industrious and skillful up front but Ferguson seems to be waning in influence. Is he verging on past it?

    Both sides didn't do themselves justice last night,cliftonville are a better footballing side than what they looked last night,and linfields last couple of five nil wins have the exeption rather than the rule.Although we are sitting top we haven't started to play anything like bluemen have come to expect this past few seasons,if the blues don't get their act together the title is in real danger of going east or north belfast.
