The Fish

Thing is, his stock wouldn't rise any higher by winning trebles in the Scottish league. Celtic are just a well supported club in a shitty league, like Anderlecht or Olympiacos. Winning something, anything with Leicester is a better point on his CV than winning a treble treble at Celtic. Hell, not even winning something, just getting them competing for Cups and finishing top half consistently.

Aye, Riviere is up there with Xisco for me.

It's funny though, I don't hate Joselu like I've hated Andreas Andersson, Xisco or the like. I thin they thought they were better than they are, Joselu seems to know he's shit.

We're safe man, dry your sheets. We're closer to 10th than we are to the relegation spots. Cardiff need 7pts to catch our current total, and I wouldn't be shocked if they failed to even get those when they've got 4 of the top 6 left to play. If you write off those fixtures and West Ham, they've got to get 7pts from Brighton, Burnley, Fulham and Crystal Palace. And we'd need to fail to get another point. Southampton face a few midtable sides with no pressure on them, plus games against sides who're difficult to break down in Brighton, Burnley, and ourselves. They're not out of the woods at all, neither are Burnley because of the fixture list.

fucking hell man. Beaten by the better side yesterday. They defended well, (9 blocks!), and we couldn't get a grip on the midfield. They were both diving shits and dirty cunts, but the penalty was the correct call, as was the freekick that lead to it. So it's not like we were cheated of points or owt. Defensively really poor and especially Manquillo and Schar on the right hand side. That right flank is definitely being targeted by opposition managers, which is surprising when we've got a right winger who's a bit of a madhead playing left wing back. Meh, we're safe, got a fairly soft run in and an away day to Craven Cottage to enjoy on the final day.

Southampton aren't out of it yet. But they've a gentler run in than Cardiff so it'd be a surprise if these three aren't the bottom three come the end of the season.

Why don't refs seem to give a shit about encroachment any more?

Got Spurs-Arsenal finishing as a draw as part of a daft 10 match accumulator. So I'm happy they're drawing, but that shouldn't have been a penalty.

And he's still waiting for his turn.

Fair play to him, to be honest. He's not in the West Ham squad, so getting game time and trying to play his way back into contention is much better than having a strop.

Nope, he was a Jet, I was a shark. It was a forbidden love.

Burnley have a stinking run in and they weren’t up to much against us. Still have Liverpool, Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal to come and for all Arsenal and Chelsea have looked vulnerable, I’d not expect Burnley to get more than a couple of points from those four fixtures at best. Plus games against Everton who’re decent if unpredictable, Wolves, Rodger’s Leicester and Crystal Palace too. I’d enjoy Burnley going down because of their shit football and the over the top praise they get for being plucky cloggers. Probably be Cardiff mind

I’ll take option C thanks Mr Tarrant

I’ve hung up my quizmaster cowl.

Up to 13th, 31pts, Crystal Palace host Man Utd next. Nice.

Rafa thinks you're a fool, brings on Diame for Longstaff instead.

You take that back. Spiteful, nasty little hobbit.

I'm the voice of reason, my arse is peppered with fence splinters and you fucking know it sunshine.

can see Burnley getting a goal from a dead ball situation and the crowd will get nervy as fuck.

Not going to relax until we're 3 or 4-0 up

He's one of our own, y'know.

Schar, what's he like eh?

Went to school with him.

Aye, if they managed to get promoted to the Championship (will never stop being funny btw), they're miles behind the teams who're aiming for play-offs, let alone automatic promotion. Is next summer the last Parachute payment? What will their owner do when the the crowds stay away? He's not got the money to keep such a large entity ticking over himself. How long will it take for them to get into the top flight again? 5yrs, 10?
