He definitely could. People made out like a narrow, undeserved win against what is still a bottom half of the table Newcastle without many of the best players was some kind of turning point for their season. Crystal Palace have just shown everyone how to beat Everton. Their wide men had all the time and space they wanted and their central midfield is combative, but aimlessly so. They've got West Ham next, then Burnley. Two organised, combative sides who could easily undo the Everton defence. Then 5 games where it's hard to see them picking up a point, let alone the wins they'll need to really get themselves out of danger. Honestly? I think this could go down to the last day. Say we're 13th, mathematically safe. Would you rather Burnley win and we finish 14th, if it meant Everton went down regardless of their result at Arsenal?

Gemmill 44878 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 The write up in the Guardian btw of Lampard's comments after the Palace game. Blaming the players, saying they "don't have the bollocks", blaming his predecessors and saying it's been like this for a while, I don't have a magic wand, etc. I think he's had 9 games there (7 in the league, 2 in the Cup), and he's already decided that, whatever happens, it's not his fault. Contrast that with how Howe behaved here. Read the below. I really hope he takes them down. He fucking deserves a relegation on his CV for this patter alone.

Tom 14011 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 The Guardian view on geopolitics and the Premier League: time for a divorce Zero mention of the current league champions who are basically identikit to the Saudis. How many times have Abu Dhabi Group played Roman Abramovic’s Chelsea and how many times has it hysterically been called THE FIXTURE OF SHAAAAME 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35080 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) Agreed, they can fuck right off. The Guardian, for all its right on, moral affections, is particularly guilty of the kind of regional prejudice HMHM mentioned recently. Trendy Man City are sound (as were Chelsea) but it’s a different matter if the Geordies want nice things too. I’ve already gone over the reasons why the relationships between Russia and the UK and our country and the Saudis are not remotely analogous but how I still don’t condone the atrocities of the latter in any way. Did I mention the Guardian can fuck right off? Edited March 21, 2022 by Alex 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14011 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 I detest the Saudis behaviour & will never exalt them. Nor will I justify their capital punishment or war. However if my club have to be associated with them I may as well reap the benefits. 🤷🏻♂️ 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) Oh that game was the moral nadir of the sport, not things like awarding a World Cup to Qatar who the proceeded to build all the stadiums using basically slaves in appalling conditions? Or countless other examples. Alex is spot on btw, they can scream hypocrisy about the Saudi relationship v Russian one, it is to a degree of course but that’s how foreign policy works. Countries align with certain other countries and have rivalries (for want of a better word) with others that’s ambitions encroach on theirs. Putin regularly calls out things the West does but is more than fine with the shit places like China and India do, hypocritical? Yes, but things just work like that and there won’t just suddenly be some moralistic impartiality taken for the sake of football. Do they not stop to think of the fucking embarrassment and insult SA would take to effectively being told by a bureaucratic body in the UK that they’re scum and their money is no good, while at the same time the UK government is openly encouraging them to do the exact thing they’re trying to do? Of course people can say they don’t give a fuck but the UK government, and general UK foreign policy would. They’ll sit on this moral high horse until we are up there with Manchester City tbh, maybe the regional point HMHM brings up will keep us as a lightening rod for it but it’ll slow down.
