Compete in the Book Bruno Guimares Challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)
The ref has gotta have a bet on no cards to be shown at this point.
Player of the season between the two Norwegians?
Being given the captain's armband has been the making of Odegaard.
Just seen a video of Shearer crying about not getting that penalty. Good stuff. Good stuff.
We've just got into touching distance of the two above, but United have a piss easy run in after this one.
Newcastle also relatively easy now too. But if Brighton beat them you never know.
I'm not treating it as a guarantee. Would be class to see us in third but it's real tight.
De Gea needs putting down.
For anyone that missed it:
A shame it's not on Sky Sports, as we'd have Roy Keane telling De Gea to get a taxi back to Manchester.
He's gone for that shot like it's his first time in goal.
Man United looking like they're the ones who've been blowing bubbles before the game.

We're properly shit.
Aye, it's just a dose of our own medicine.
Arsenal put a couple of wins together and we're back to 2010 and nobody is allowed to get about them.
Remember when I said Liverpool might come 3rd and everyone lolled.
When Liverpool have to play Leicester and Southampton in their last 3 games, it's a huge possibility.Quote:

Bournemouth will be on the beach then surely. Liverpool's problem is they have 9 maximum points left to take against three teams that will be scrapping like mad. United really are playing 4 teams who are going to be mid table. Newcastle have the trickiest run in but are also the best team of the three so I expect they will win their two home games and smash Frank to take 9 from a possible 12.
Brighton could also make it up there, but have to still play Newcastle, Arsenal and City themselves.
I think Liverpool just started the winning run a couple of games too late. Even if they win all 3 remaining, which I don't think they will, you're still needing United to drop points twice and I don't see them doing that in any of their home games.
If Newcastle get Big Sam'd at Leeds then maybe there's a chance, but I can't see it.
The problem with Man Utd is their squad depth. Once they have their strongest XI playing like the likes of Phil Jones and Lee Grant they should have enough to cling on to top 4.
We'll stroll to EL glory tbf but if a minimum CL semi is worth more coefficient points, maybe we should just get put forward as the CL side for the benefit of English football (as well as mid-table shite like Utd who may need a 5th place in future).
We really need 30 minute halves and the clock being stopped every time the whistle is blown.Quote:

No we didn't.

Decent last day for the Championship today.
Middlesborough at home to Coventry, with Boro having nothing to play for and a point being good enough for Coventry I reckon they play out a draw.
Millwall are at home to Blackburn which should be good because both have to win, though Blackburn need big favours from elsewhere.
Sunderland are away at Preston and West Brom are away to Swansea. Could well be some final day madness about.
I haven't watched Millwall for years, glad to see their midfield of Billy Mitchell and George Saville has the exact names that a Millwall midfield pairing should always have. Hint of east end gangster combined with general oi oi credentials.
We've not won at Boro for almost exactly 30 years, so ideally absolutely nothing happens in the game at all and everyone sleepwalks their way home.
Millwall Blackburn is 1-1 now (was nearly 2-0 but for the latest flag in history ruling out a Millwall second, pure guesswork I think). Good game.
Dare to dream.Quote:

Luton, Boro, Coventry and Blackburn would be a great set of play offs to have, as a guy who hates seeing the same old teams constantly coming back up.
Pickering has just gifted Millwall a goal.
If all the results stay the same but West Brom win 2-1. How is it decided who goes up? Yellow cards?
Goals scored.Quote:

That's Millwall into the playoffs then.
I take full responsibility for cursing Blackburn there.
Millwall in the Prem would be outstanding. They'd get about 2 points away from home and about 35 at the Den.
Blackburn should have had a playoff spot wrapped up a long time ago, what a horrible run of form they've had.
To be fair my Dad has spent the last 3 weeks saying how he didn't want to be in the playoffs anyway because 'We're so shit, I'd just watch us get battered for 7 months'
I've got that one ready in the holster in case the next hour or so goes downhill.
I play football with a Huddersfield Town fan and he gets gloomy whenever they hit a run of form that might see them actually get promoted again.
How did they hire Ten Hag?Quote:

Leicester have been banter here. In possession they can look quality but out of possession, it's comical. I wondered what was going on and then I saw Gammon King John Terry on their bench.
It'd be a nice problem to have, but from this game alone I don't think I'd have the nerves to handle a playoff final.
This Millwall v Blackburn game has been incredible.
Or 'John Dale Tomasson' as everyone seems to have convinced themselves he is called.Quote:

Fuck me, Blackburn taking the lead could be the goal that saves our skin here
Holy shit, we're in the playoffs in a season where I wanted us to not be evicted and have to play at Burton Albion and just wanted to not be 24th going into the World cup.
You need to do an ms Paint for the moment.
