  1. I thought Fonte was absolutely brilliant. He got my MoM vote. I would say "flawless", but I missed his yellow card somehow.
  2. Epic trolling, made it to page 2. Impressive. Truly impressive.
  3. Surely time for Shane????
  4. Niggly game. Sort of match Shane Long could change to our advantage...
  5. Six pointer :-)
  6. Amazed by the feedback on here. I watched it on Sky and thought we were quite good. Not great. But quite good. 6.5/10 ish.
  7. Not sure about that. I can see a scenario in which we challenge regularly for the top 6 (although as dark horses, most likely). This season, however, represents a very rare opportunity to snatch a place in the top 4 because so many of the big clubs seem to be struggling/rebuilding/in transition. You might expect this to be the case for one or two of the top clubs each year, but to have all of Man Utd, Arsenal, Spurs and Liverpool appearing well below par - along with Everton and Man City looking less than their best, is very unusual indeed.
  8. CB Fry is right, of course, that doing marginally better than the 5th placed team has done is not a recipe for coming 4th. It's a recipe for coming 5th and edging the 5th placed team down to 6th. That said, predictions made on his erroneous basis might end up being right for the wrong reasons. With the exception of Chelsea, the "usual suspects"(i.e. the rest of he "big 7") really look desperately poor this season. One aside - doesn't the 4th place (and maybe from next season even the 3rd place) club go into a one-off knockout? Our reward for finishing 4th could end up being no more than losing a two-legged contest to Seville or Galatasaray or Ajax....
  9. We have secured 16 points from our six home games so far. (2.67 points per game) If your prediction is right, we'd get 20 pts from out next 13 home games. (1.54 per game). If we are to finish in the top four, we will need to (continue to) be near perfect home IMHO
  10. I'm cheering on Man City and Chelsea in every match - we have no chance in finishing above either of them. So, I want them to beat United, Liverpool, Spurs, Everton etc. I think we do have a slim chance of 3rd or 4th - but think 7th is most likely outcome.
  11. Most bookies now have us at 4/7 to be in the top six and about 5/2 to be in the top four. We're around 1/50 to finish in the top ten.
  12. Cup win. All day long.

    Adkins

    He did just fine for us. Love him to bits. We probably parted at the right time, though.
  14. Who is on this panel?
  15. Hmm....sight exaggeration there...League2 "at best".....really???
  16. Awful what has happened to Rovers. I dragged myself there to watch our utterly feeble 1-0 loss in the FA Cup. Ironically, I think Rickie scored the goal. Afterwards, the Rovers fans were utter tossers. One guy came up to me (just me and the girlfriend) and shouted in my face (presumably because I was wearing a Saints scarf)..."F***you...f*ck our crap team....admit it, we deserved to win that!" I replied..."Yep..you were utterly sh1te, but we were even worse." He then threatened to get his mates to murder me and gangrape my girlfriend. So...good...I am glad those "people" are suffering. WTFILN
  17. Pease keep calling thee threads up. Its joyously funny. Does anyone have the ability to find the great one where we were 1-0 to Sunderland, then Puncheon equalised? That was a classic.
  18. If it's free, can I have six. Thanks.
  19. hahahha....awesome....any more predictions? WTFILN
  20. Sensational winner. Boy oh boy...QPR are awful. We played at 6/10 and won with space to spare. Eat it up,Harry.....
  21. I'm still relieved that it doesn't look like we will struggle against relegation. I have a nosebleed rom how fantastically well we are doing. Sensational start to the season. Pinch me.
  22. I'm still reeling t just from Cylne's wonder-goal but from TwoPints ability to make a "simple" journey that involves taking the Northern line from Oxford Circus. Given the Northern line doesn't run from Oxford Circus, this is a magnificent feat of engineering or just plain, old fashioned magic. It ain't "simples" that's for sure.
  23. I have no idea if it was right or wrong to applaud or boo Chambers. But I feel very strongly that the phrases "Fair play to..." and "To be fair.." need to be completely exorcised from any and all football discussions.
  24. It goes to pens if it's a draw, right? (although I guess Wenger won't want extra time)
