New England Patriots v Philadelphia Eagles - Live

Super Bowl XXXIX live: Follow all the action as it happens with Sean Ingle NOW.
Pre-amble: Good evening everybody, and welcome to Super Bowl XXXIX from Jacksonville, Florida (writes play-by-play reporter from his London bunker). New England should win this, but Super Bowl history is full of shocks and surprises. Will this be another one?

Gossip from NFL party in London: Most of my colleagues are at the Hippodrome, Leicester Square, where Britain's finest C-list celebrities are enjoying free cocktails and listening to Girls Aloud mime their latest single. Arsenal footballer/soccerball player Ashley Cole is also there, although there's no sign of Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho. Erm, I'm guessing that means nothing to anyone reading this. Oh well..

Pre-match music: Here are three words to strike fear into right-thinking individuals everywhere: country music medley. Meanwhile the first email of the night is in. "Sean, is it really wise to announce that you're in a bunker?" writes Michael Hills. "Before you know it, George W's F-16s will be overhead trying to smoke you out." Bring them on, Michael.

It gets worse dept: The Black Eye peas are now dancing around on stage, asking the crowd "Where's the love". Not in this bloody office, that's for sure.
