Football Weekly: Stoke suffer Trotters shocker and other battles at the bottom

It was another cracking weekend in the Premier League, and on today's Football Weekly, like all good proctologists, James Richardson and friends are focusing on the bottom.

Jacob Steinberg kicks things off by telling us about Bolton's barnstorming display against Stoke, as well as Wolves' victory over a doomed-looking Wigan, and Spurs' swashbuckling performance against Fulham. Check out the video highlights here.

Next, Gregg Roughley tells us why Kenny Dalglish's honeymoon period could be coming to an end after Liverpool's lacklustre draw at Anfield with Swansea.

Finally, best-selling author Barney Ronay tells us why Sir Alex Ferguson isn't all that, and Sid Lowe reports on Barcelona's battling draw at Bilbao and - here's a surprise - another right royal spanking dished out by Real Madrid.

Mr Blizzard Jonathan Wilson's in the pod on Thursday, when we'll be looking forward to the international break (or not). So in the meantime, leave your feedback on the blog below.
