I reckon whoever is reffing us will be nervous as fuck and shy away from any big decisions.

Ah the exuberance of youth. I remember those days.

That would be fucking aces, but no, it'll likely be a close affair.

They're still in 6th, but yeah their form's not great. Fortunately for them Fulham and Leeds are having an identical wobble. All with 2 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses in their last 6 Shef Wed look like a bit of a flat track bully to be honest, in the last 10 games they've only taken points from teams in the bottom half and only 14pts from the 30 available. (Except of course everybody's free hit against Norwich). Wins coming against Blackburn, Nottingham Forest, Norwich and Rotherham. Draws with Barnsley and Burton. Shef Wed have 4 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses vs teams in the top 3rd (Only Preston have performed worse against that group). And two of those counted as "Top 3rd" are Villa and Norwich. Fwiw; They've kept 14 clean sheets this season and have only failed to score on 7 occasions 60% of their games have ended with under 2.5 goals

1-1 I reckon

Booooooooooooo You were angered that Benitez didn't field players that were injured. You think we play too negatively despite the fact we've more wins and more goals than anyone else in the league. Who's befuddled now Noelie? Have a beer and it'll all become clear.

Yeah I'm sure footballers spend a lot of time in the Sloany Pony and the Ship...

Delac Hector Christensen Kalas Rahman Cuadrado Pasalic van Ginkel baker B.Traore Remy Where would that side finish? Could there be some kind of punishment for teams that buy young players and then farm them out? Maybe you're not allowed to loan out a player within a year of signing him? That might deter some young stars from joining Chelsea or City, can they afford to stall their career for a year? It's still fine for 16yr olds, but the 20yr olds breaking into Middlesbrough's first team might think twice?

fwiw I think it would benefit the Premier League if they relegate 6 or 7 teams this season.

Also, their fans were mostly bellends.

Hope Swansea go down like.

They couldn't afford him. -
Well, I've made the bet now, so we'll see. Because my tuber chomping chum, it's just a hypothetical. Maybe Lloris develops a love of a barm cake? Or he can't stand the arseholes in London anymore, and want to move to Manchester to see what Northern arseholes are like instead?
-
all this talk of beer's got my wheels turning. Think it was on here someone talked about Left Luggage at Monkseaton, looks right up my street. And next time I'm up I'm definitely going there before or after a match to try a few of theirs
-
Meant that Spurs would go off and sign a top 'keeper and whomever they buy from will need a replacement. I know what you're saying and frankly if the market wasn't fucking bonkers I'd agree that a fairly raw 'keeper shouldn't command a big fee. But honestly, this is the Premier League we're talking about; Hull paid £13m for Ryan Mason, John Stones went for £47.25m, Palace paid £10m for James fucking Tomkins ffs! Is Jordan Pickford likely to command a higher fee than 27 year old shitheap James Tomkins?
-
If he's sold he'll go for >£10m. £5 to the SBR AND NOT A FUCKING PLANE
-
They also knew that Sissoko wanted to go and we wanted to sell. Oh, and the world knew that Sissoko was horse shit.
-
You're right, but Mourinho might go for Lloris, or Butland, and that'll have Spurs or Stoke looking around for a top 'keeper and so on.
-
He's good enough, young enough and English enough to command a big fee though. And we can't very well dismiss the likelihood of a club spending over the odds on someone who's been mostly average apart from a few highlight reels, can we? He won't go for the £30m some are expecting, but he'll be the one player that demands a high fee.
-
No knead.

Yeah I'd just wait for HF's take on it if I were you. -
Liverpool are after a 'keeper. De Gea moving to Spain might shuffle the pack too. I'd not be surprised if they got a big fee for Pickford. English, highly rated, young. Plus if teams like Crystal palace can spend £75.5m you needn't restrict big spenders to the "big" clubs.

You drink Guiness quickly? You're a monster. (I've no idea how quickly you should drink Guiness as years at Leeds Uni watching Guiness-centred faux-Irish forced fun on Paddy's Day put me off it forever)
-
Lager drinkers seem to drink quicker than me, I've convinced myself it's because most Lager is pretty shit if it's not ice cold and fizzy.

I've been on the other end of something similar. Was going to the funeral of a friend's dad on the Saturday, so stayed with a mate of theirs on the Friday. He's a massive Yorkshire builder, basically a viking in a flatcap. I've met him a couple of times before so I thought it'd be fine, but things started to go awry as me, him and his wife sat down for dinner. 3 bottles between us, then he says we're off to the pub for a few. He drinks much faster than me so I was throwing back the last 3rd to try and not be rude, then we go to a craft ale bar and I he insisted I drink a pint of 12% lager, then back to his for a whisky and a port. People at the funeral were dead sympathetic, under the assumption that my miserable face, occasional disappearances & near total silence was because I was devastated about the deceased.
