[Albion] Premier League 29/4 - 2/5/23

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Just the drum and clackers I really hope Leicester f*** off

 

[jimhigham]

We’re well past the point where draws have much value for Everton. They really need to be winning matches, which is just dandy because we really don’t need them coming to the Amex with notions of bus parking and a solid point.

Everton and Leeds going down would just be funnier

No beef with Leicester or Everton. Hate Leeds though.

I personally feel Everton have been shit for ages without punishment. I felt the same when Villa were just lingering around for what felt like eons being gash under Lambert and others, until they finally got relegated. I think Everton deserve it, Leicester at least try and do something productive.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Our defeat at Forest could have a ‘silver lining’ if they survive at the expense of Leeds. Table bottom end is looking good as things currently stand (2-1 Leicester)

 

[Guinness Boy]

So far this is like watching a pair of pensioners fighting over the last Werthers.

To be fair this is now like watching two gangs of toddlers throwing several bags of sweets at one another

 

[brighton_tom]

How has DCL missed that?! & then Vardy also really should be scoring, he turned the defender again unnecessarily.

Coleman now with a nasty injury.

 

[Motogull]

Even Mopes would have got the one that DCL just fluffed.

This game is not a jobbie. It is a proper cracker.

I hope Mopes comes on for his customary late yellow.

Strangely compelling

Martin Tyler on Vardy's goal: "The only VAR involvement in that were the first 3 letters of his surname"

 

[Sheebo]

Nor do we want them fighting for their lives like Forest.

May as well just give them the points then

Martin Tyler on Vardy's goal: "The only VAR involvement in that were the first 3 letters of his surname"

I noticed that too. He had that planned.

 

[Sheebo]

This

They’ll be fighting for their lives regardless of tonight’s result. All the teams at the bottom will. I’d rather face a team with fragile / little confidence so won’t mind if Everton lose…

Weirdly intriguing

Shoot him. Shoot him now.

 

[Acker79]

"Ref, how can that be a handball? It hit me on the inside crook of my elbow, right down here in the middle of my arm?!"

I understand what you’re saying, but momentum is so important in my view. Look at how we reacted on NSC collectively to two losses on the bounce. The players feel it too, it’s human nature.

Fight and effort is the minimum, confidence to take that shot believing you’ll score, or try that cross instead of recycling to the fullback, is the real match winner a lot of the time.

Great game for all the wrong reasons

 

[East Staffs Gull]

Iwobi seems to have a habit of giving the ball away in dangerous situations.

 

[brighton_tom]

Michael Keane gives away a penalty for hand ball. Runs up to the ref to protest his innocence while pointing to where the ball hit him, but is pointing to his arm below the shirt line. Well yes Michael, that is a handball then!

Great game for all the wrong reasons

Desperate, isn’t it?!
