1205: Now we've all heard the rumours linking Dean Ashton to Manchester United this week, so it promises to be an interesting afternoon for him at Old Trafford. I'm a big Ashton fan, if he stays injury-free I think he'd be my first choice England striker, with Wayne Rooney as his support. But will he bag against his potential suitors?
1201: Some early team news and it appears Manchester United have named the same side which beat Barcelona in midweek, with Wayne Rooney not fit enough for a place on the bench.
1159: "I am sitting here wondering if my beloved Derby will get the points necessary to avoid being the worst team in Premier League history and it makes me very sad. But then I remember that my rivals Leicester are about to be relegated from the Championship and my other rivals Forest are 83 leagues below us... and the sun comes out and the birds sing and everything is better again."

Oh you'll keep, sunshine. Good luck with those four points you need, by the way. At the rate you're going since Paul Jewell took over, you'd need another three seasons in the Premier League to get them! (Derby fans, it's just banter, calm down)
1155: Shall we get Stevo's predictions out of the way nice and early today? Here we go...
Man Utd 2-1 West Ham
Aston Villa 2-0 Wigan
Blackburn 4-1 Derby
Fulham 2-2 Birmingham
Middlesbrough 0-1 Portsmouth
Reading 1-1 Tottenham
Bolton 2-1 Sunderland
Lawro's predictions
1151: "I can't remember a season with so much riding on the last two weeks. Come on you Villa boys!"

Neither can I pal, neither can I.
1147: Yeah yeah yeah I've got a vested interest, I'm a Forest fan, you all know that. But Donny and Carlisle, I still want to hear from you, so get involved. Text me on 81111 or join the debate on 606. Premier League, League One - it's all the same, really.

1143: But although it says 'Live - Premier League', this isn't Ronseal and these updates are not going to do exactly what it says on the tin. You see, with the Championship's stunning finale not until Sunday and League Two all wrapped up, there are quite a few eyes on League One today. At the top, Doncaster, Nottingham Forest and Carlisle can all finish second and win promotion, while at the bottom, Gillingham, Bournemouth, Cheltenham and Crewe are all hoping to avoid relegation. I'll be bringing you all the major goals.
1140: Back to the football and I don't even know where to begin. OK, let's start at the top. In 65 minutes, Manchester United aim to take a giant stride towards winning the Premier League by beating West Ham. At three o'clock, Villa play Wigan, Blackburn host Derby, Fulham entertain Birmingham in the classic 12-pointer, Boro face Portsmouth and Reading welcome Spurs to the Madejski Stadium. As if that's not enough, at a quarter past five of your English hours, Bolton take on Sunderland. Phew!
1136: The most remarkable man has just fixed my television screen. He was wearing a Rod Stewart on tour t-shirt. It's already a day that will live long in my memory.
1130: Nervous? You bet I am.
