Ignore me, I'm being a silly arse, still on a high from yesterday - Dycheball ought to cure me.

Thought it was quite punchy for a bean counter

Behind a paywall. Can you give a summary of what it says

Two weeks ago, a thoroughly unflattering statistic was doing the rounds. Both Roy Hodgson’s anaemic dirge of a Crystal Palace side and Roberto De Zerbi’s supposedly brilliant Brighton had won four of their past 17 Premier League games. One lost his job shortly after, while the other has been linked with the vacant Liverpool and Barcelona jobs…

Within seconds of each other.
I'll take that as an omen for a 2-0 win this afternoon.
