The conclusion I draw from your post is you are not happy with Leicester drawing, and the previous post that this is good for us.


Haha I am getting old and confused .

Don’t worry about it, I am no spring chicken myself, as my name would indicate.

personally id rather see Leicester (anyone) push the dippers to the very end. memories of slippy g would haunt them. finishing 3rd instead of 2nd would make no difference for us.

The way it has been rigged this year dippers will win league, so best we can hope for is second.

While its not officially done at this point it's hard to see Liverpool not winning it at a canter

I resigned myself to them winning it after our ambush at their place the other week. I just hope they don’t beat any of our records along the way, but I rather suspect they will

They won't, there is no way they won't have a dip, I strongly believe they will have a bad run, unfortunately neither us or Leicester are good enough to capitalise, the title is theirs

They will.
We seem to still not understand how fucking poor this league actually is beside the "big clubs". They lost one game in a year in a half of league games and are unbeaten at home since 2017.

In the run they had along us last season, since losing points at Everton, they had maybe a difficult game vs Spuds, scoring in the last minute. The rest were a travesty, including the so called "big game" with Newcastle.
The run of easy games continued this season, with teams not even having the decency of parking a decent bus in front of them or, as fucked as it sounds, hurting their players.

There is no doubt in my mind they will reach and beat the centurion record, not because they are better than that team, but because of how fucking pathetic this league has become.

I've just seen the Liverpool game on MoTD. How did Delofeu get flagged for offside when he hit the post with a corner. He took the corner, it rattled the post then he got the ball back and the ref blew for offside. How is that possible when he touched the ball last. Maybe the refs aren't bent they really are just shite.

You just can't get those decisions wrong. The ref made a specific call, why, only he will know. The only thing I could add was that Watford were looking threatening.

Maybe this. If he took the corner then he can't be the next person to touch the ball. It is like hitting the post with a penalty and the putting in the rebound - you can't do it. Peter Reid did once at Leeds. It annoyed the shit out of me. It is not offside, it is an indirect free kick.

That said, I have not seen the incident in question so the above could be complete bollocks.
Your right leg I like; I've got nothing against your right leg. The trouble is neither have you.

Their current run is one defeat in 56 league games. Their last defeat before we beat them last season was their final away game of the 17 /18 season at Chelsea. They may have a dip but they have room to get away with a couple of draws or even defeats. They won't screw this up now. As much as I hate them i have to admire such consistency.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

Your spot on Tokyo. I knew the penalty taker couldn't touch the ball before anyone else but didn't know it was also true at a corner. The ref did look as if he signalled for offside though.

Rags losing, but they haven’t had their weekly penalty yet, so toffees need to score again.
