It’s the old mans birthday on May 4th so might try to get him tickets which he’ll turn down because going would jinx it. The problem with being a 65 year old football fan is that you end up with so many superstitions, doing literally anything makes you an emotional mess.
Lol.
Yeah, how the fuck.
Probably want to ask him, does it really fucking matter even if that were remotely possible?
Frank Lampard’s Derby are definitely going to beat Leeds now.
the only superstition i have is to not bad mouth other team's results before my team's match has been played or to be happy about someone else's match going poorly because it'll literally always turn around if i do
Sheff to go up as champions. Pulis to sneak 6th.
How many of these 'superstitions' result in him not spending time with you?
That year Kieron Richardson and Bryan Robson kept them up was the last time he hugged me. Football is serious business apparently.
Kanté can actually do a passable impression of Lampard these days, he's such a boss.
And yet if Lampard did an impression of Kante he'd probably lose his job. PC bullshit.
Alright, that was a pretty good one.
Leeds not making it would be lol but they've still a pretty decent chance of going up automatically. Just more media GREAT or DISASTER with no in between.
City should chuck whatever Chelsea want for Kanté.
They'd never lose a game again.
Imagine Kante and Hazard both leaving this summer. Would be amazing
He'll end up at PSG.
Kerry Dixon.
I'm more than prepared for us never to win anything again, I never thought I'd see us win anything bar the odd cup every 20 years.
I would rather not see Abramovich run it into the ground from exile limbo though.
"Don't call it a come back"
Is Abramovich just not interested any more or what?
He's not got a residential visa anymore and has put Marina in to run the club, which it turns out she is not very good at doing.
He is allowed in the country, but not permanently.
With Everton giving them a bumming, Arsenal losing and now Chelsea dropping points, United must be fired up on Wednesday to get that important 4th spot.
C’mon Ole you manc bastard.
I'm a twit
I just spotted Alastair Campbell giving it large in the Burnley fans, how to make it even more galling.
Kovacic is our worst player this season, he doesn't do anything. Doesn't even foul people.
Tight doesn't even describe it.
Man Utd
Arsenal
Chelsea
Spurs
I thought Chelsea we're about 9th.
We've got to play Man U away, probably a shit draw which will let in norf London.
Us and Arsenal should have a pact whereby if one makes it we let the other win the final.
United will beat city then lose against Chelsea and I'll stop all forms of communication.
I'll happily take 6th if it means Liverpool not winning the title at this stage.
Nah they just had such a head start that bumbling along has been enough. They could lose 5 games in a row and 7th would still be 5 points behind. If more of the bottom don't buck their ideas up, the entire league is fucked.
City could score 198 points over the course of two seasons at this rate. For context, that means they've dropped as many points over two seasons as Cardiff have gained this one. Games gone.
While it's bad that Utd need a win vs City, there seems to be the assumption that they just will because they need to now. But at least the hope is there that Man Utd aren't very good and City are.
Aye, but that was also true last season and City borked a 2-0 lead in that one somehow.
I have absolutely no faith in United not to get a seeing to on Wednesday, but events have perhaps conspired to inspire them somewhat. The silver-lining is that being out of the Champions League and having 'Ole at the wheel' is proper Souness-esque end of days stuff for United.
Where has 'Ole at the wheel' meme come from? Everyone is going in on it.
I feel like we, as fans of the sport, deserve one season of Bielsa seething in the Premier League before he dies.
Ruptured Achilles for Hudson-Odoi, the type of injury that can kill a pacy, tricky teenage winger. Shame.
Sarri's probably happy with that the weirdo.
Can't wait for Torreira to get a double leg break
Robbie Fowler has been named as the new coach of Brisbane FC...
