3rd to 11th

That's ridiculous!

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Footballs back.

 

[GT49er]

3rd to 11th

That's ridiculous!

Although to get to 11th. would take a fairly major bad day to turn round the goal difference between us and Brentford - and Spurs would have to win away at Man. City too.
Win though and we're guaranteed fifth!

Still, after all the thrills of the internationals, it's good that another Premier League break has come round again!

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Whilst the Wales and England games were fun, there's nothing like the real thing!!

There's a cracker of a game in the midlands on Saturday afternoon.

Yes, Villa are playing football in Europe this season, but what a test for them up against one of next season's European powerhouses. The best news for us is that our GD will end up much better over Villa after the humiliation they are going to get handed to them. Palace done them 5-0 last time out in the league and them smashed them with a weakened team in the cup more recently.

Whilst a free hit for Villa, their fans will hope for nothing worse than a 4-0 but deep down, they know that is unlikely.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Villa are actually on a pretty crap run of form themselves, despite having similar European ambitions as Palace, so a home win feels like far from a foregone conclusion.

Annoyingly, Palace are the only one of the bottom four I could see getting something this weekend.

Getting ahead of myself here but with next Friday in mind... https://www.southamptonfc.com/en/news/article/ramsdale-and-bednarek-set-for-spell-on-sidelines

Leicester clinging on, so far.....

Edit: Spoke too soon.

 

[GoldstoneVintage]

Just found out that Wilfred Ndidi has a brother called Yes.

(sorry)

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Shocking tackle by Ndidi in Palmer. VAR once again not fit for purpose. Not that I care about that with that horrible club.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Farcical failure to make it 2-0. Palmer and Madueke getting in each other's way when a goal looked nailed-on. So bad that they both had a good laugh about it

 

[birthofanorange]

Sneaky goal against the run of play from Leicester, and 3rd spot is still on.
(Assuming that we win and Arse and Forest draw....which is entirely feasible)

Pooh!

 

[BBassic]

Stonewall penalty not given there. Shambolic officiating

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

At first I thought the Chelsea defender just stood his ground but I think he knew what he was doing to lean his leg in to block the Leicester player. Penalty for me.

 

[Bold Seagull]

Leicester remind me of us 2018/19

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Pity sub appearance for Dewsbury Hall.

 

[Weststander]

I’ve got a bet somewhere on nsc (can’t remember with whom) with someone who said Chelsea were going to have a rubbish PL season.
