So much for my wish of us merely competing

Just shows how tight it is. One win and we're well up the league table. Not time to panic though. The games in March will decide our season.

Newcastle winning!

Correct team lineup, twice in a week now from MP. Is he OK? No Lovren and Lallana, what a shame. Looks like Klopp has decided neither has the bottle for it.

Howe doesn't like it outside of his comfort zone, he knows he'll never be sacked at Bournemouth. Not sure if he could deal with the extra pressure at another club.

Lovren clearance, rebounds off VVD's face straight into the back of the net.

King

Huddersfield only above us because they've played more games. That one I am 100% sure about, we will be above them after 38 matches. Bournemouth less sure about, depends on us beating them at home in April.

We won the last game! Is that not showing fight? Relax everyone.

Huddersfield will finish below us in the table, as will Bournemouth.

The clackers are back

Blew it? Really? I thought a draw was a fair result in that match really.

We didn’t really put up much of a fight up at Anfield, so the performance can’t really get any worse than that. I just hope we actually compete this time.

Disagree that it is more honest. Rugby players regularly cheat i.e. eye gouging and blood capsules. No worse than footballers who dive.

It's OK. Prefer watching cricket and cycling though.

I reckon mack may make an appearance soon...

Missed it!

Losing 1-0 to MK Dons. But it's OK, they'll be able to circle jerk each other over their amazing and massive fanbase. Presumably the referee is too intimidated by the unusual big atmosphere, or other such nonsense.

Hammers 1-0 up

Completely agree. The sooner they all bugger off, the better.

Every game at 3pm massive for us Everton v Palace Stoke v Brighton Swansea v Burnley West Ham v Watford Huddersfield v Bournemouth and Newcastle v Man Utd tomorrow. Chelsea v West Brom on Monday It'll be interesting to see where we end up by tomorrow.

Swearing in the family section definitely should be stamped down. But that mother's pipe dream of clearing out the entire Northam Stand... :lol:

I remember my dad trying to cover my ears as the whole stadium was shouting "the referee's a w****r" v Sunderland at home. Mike Riley was the ref in question. The fact of the matter is, you're never going to eradicate bad language from football stadiums, ever.

Unless they have conclusive evidence, I really fail to see how Rodriguez can be found guilty. Also, given Gaetan Bong's first language isn't English, it's very easy to see how he could have misheard. As someone who speaks a second language, it's very easy to get mixed up between words that sound very similar. Regional accents only enhance that problem (and J Rod does have quite a pronounced Burnley accent).

They haven't had a lot to sing about - they didn't even score against us last season. And we finished above them in the league the season before that.
