Watford penalty

Newcastle go one up v Watford. Puts us back down to 13th

Does anyone know how the DMWSL 612 Ltd company fits into the ownership jigsaw these days? (2019 Accounts just filed for this company too) I always thought that acted as the parent company for Southampton Football Club, but how does that fit in with Lander Sports (UK) Ltd...? https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/06951749/filing-history

At the beginning of the season I reckoned we had a squad capable of finishing in the top 10. With 4 games to go that's still achievable. Sticking with that prediction at the moment. #madness

2-1 Saints

Agreed. I was merely (and calmly) highlighting a fact that we've been better than Leicester and Chelsea (for example) over the last two thirds of the season.

I know I'm sounding like a scratched record on this point, but why is a penalty shot that misses the target by an inch or two invariably deemed to be "hopeless", yet a penalty shot that goes into the corner by an inch or two is invariably deemed to be "perfect"? If JWP had skied it into row Z then, yes, I'd agree: woeful penalty. Could it not be argued that his penalty last night was "not far off perfect"....?

We're currently a better team than Leicester and Chelsea, based on the most recent two thirds of the season. (yes, I know..... "a team is judged over a whole season, not on recent form...blah blah blah".... but I would venture that the most recent two thirds of a season are probably more indicative of how good a team currently is rather than using the most distant third as a barometer....) p.s. the above said, I wouldn't personally describe us as a "top top team". That is indeed stretching credibility somewhat

Joint 4th on points; 5th on goal difference....

Indeed. There are certainly more questions than answers....

Please someone ITK tell me that we've got a guaranteed option to buy rather than the ball of decision being in Tottenham's court...?

Two inches lower and we'd be raving what a cracking penalty it was... #finemargins

Just the 13 penalties for Man Utd this season then...

Oh well. Puts to bed any slim hopes of finishing in Europa slot.

Incoming inevitable Everton winner in 3...2....

Smallbone coming on. Not exactly a game changer

Everton winner inevitable here

Would happily take the draw now

Come on Ralph... Freshen things up a bit

Hang on... What was VAR checking for there? If it's a foul then it's a red, if it's not a foul then it's not a free kick....

Clearly gets the ball...?

Two high energy games in quick succession starting to catch up with us now. Time to freshen things up me thinks

This game has got such a strong feeling of inevitability about it
