Leeds beating Palace could be interesting.

On a side note, two rubbish games on TV on Saturday, Brentford v Newcastle, Spuds v Us, Leicester v Bournemouth all much more intriguing.

(Yes. You did it. Now go and have a shower).
You did well my friend.

Personally I think nsc should crowd fund for some sort of decontamination chamber for rhe aftermath of such painful necessities.

Hold that thought on Villa. Their remaining fixtures after Forest look horrible.

Newcastle home
Brentford away
Fulham home
Man U away
Wolves away
Spuds home
Liverpool away
Us home

SATURDAY 8TH APRIL
Manchester United v Everton - Come on Everton, you can do it.
Villa v Forest - Come of Forest, and rough 'em up whilst you're at it.
Brentford v Newcastle - Erm draw with loads of bookings and niggly injures?
Fulham v West Ham - Come on you Irons.
Leicester v Bournemouth - Dunno, don't really care either.
Wolves v Chelsea - All the best Wolves.
Saints v Citeh - What's the point?
SUNDAY 9TH APRIL
Leeds v Palace - What a time to have a restaurant booking. Ghastly fixture but on the pus side, whatever the result, there will be a positive. Hopefully Palace get smacked on and off the pitch.
Liverpool v Arsenal - I'm right up The Arse on Sunday and no mistake.

Southampton- man city very uninspiring too. Why do they bother picking these games - so dull when City are 3 up by 30 mins as is likely 😴

Everton, Forest, West Ham, Bournemouth, Wolves and Leeds wins (only a million to one the lot) would drop Palace to 16th, ahead of Forest and Bournemouth on goal difference.

Newcastle, Man U and Villa to drop points and pick up a few suspensions and knocks.

Caicedo is two yellows away from a suspension, need him for the next three fixtures but would encourage a tactical 10th yellow in the FA cup to miss the Forrest game.

I’ve absolutely no data to back this up, which means I’m almost certainly just making it up in my own head, but it feels like our matches have been televised relatively rarely this season. We seem to have had a huge amount of Saturday 3 p.m. kick offs for a team pushing for Europe.

That’s not even a complaint. Saturday 3 p.m. rocks!

Suspensions arising from accumulated bookings in a competition apply only to that competition, so a booking in the FA Cup will have no impact on his card count in the PL.

Villa are starting to annoy me. Potential for last game of season to be a European spot decider at their place. And we all know how that will go.

Villa are a concern, 5 wins out of 6. Unbelievable stuff.
They've got some tough games ahead. But then so have we I guess, we've got to play every team who's above us.
