Maybe don't yank so hard, next time... HEY-O! I'll be here all night. Don't forget to tip your servers.

• Hicks and Gillett have dropped their restraining order, thus paving the way for Liverpool to be sold. It has yet to be resolved who, exactly, will be buying the club, however. It seemed that John Henry's NESV had it wrapped up, but then... MY GAWD, THAT'S MILL FINANCIAL'S MUSIC! [BBC Sport]
• Hey, on the bright(?) side, the Reds have re-signed Jamie Carragher through the 2012-2013 season. No word on if the deal included a Scouse-English translator for the defender. [F365]
  
• Shocking headline of the day: "United rule out Hargreaves" [Sky Sports]
• In defending Nigel De Jong's tackle on Hatem Ben Arfa (which broke the Newcastle player's leg in two places), Roberto Mancini states "It was a normal tackle," but forgets to tack on the qualifier "for Nigel De Jong". [Guardian]

The weekend preview will return next Friday.
