sheffield_dave Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 1 hour ago, Ever the pessimist said: I agree that City will win the league, but think 4th is 50/50 and Leeds still might weasel their way out if it. Although that final one is possibly my pessimism talking. Arsenal are in the driving seat, but I'd take Spurs' last 2 fixtures against Burnley and Norwich. Arsenal going to Newcastle on a Monday night needing something is almost vintage Arsenal banana skin. Can't see Leeds winning either of the last 2 either.

Guest Mcguigan Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Out with brother in law last night, home and away Leeds for years. His take on was that obviously he wants PL survival but he’s really not bothered about a return to the Championship, in fact he’d look forward to it. At least it’s competitive. When Liverpool, Man City and Chelsea have players that can’t even make match day squads yet would walk into your first team, what’s the point. You’re just cannon fodder in the race for a top four spot. Short of a NUFC style takeover, what’s the point in your main objective being getting to 40 points every season. They are down though.

I know a Norwich fan who says similar. He genuinely doesn't care when they get relegated, as he can look forward to winning more than a handful games next season, at least. It's sad that's what football has become, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much. For most, the name of the game is survival and that's about it. Hey, if you are lucky, you might have a "great" season and finish 7th to 9th. It's proper sh*t really.

That's the reality most miss in their lust to get to the PL. Best thing to do is ensure PL survival and go all out in the cups - unless a bit better placed then aim to get into and do well in Europe Not much else can be done really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 (edited) Horrible feeling Leeds will win today and be out the bottom 3. Edited May 15, 2022 by WalthamOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridportOwl Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Leeds losing. Good old Brighton. Leicester winning as Vardy scores again, they are different animal when he is fit and playing. He is going to be impossible to replace when he finally comes back to S6 to finish his playing career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BridportOwl Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 West Ham are looking really good this afternoon. Full of running, closing down De Bruyne as soon he gets on the ball. Very impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southie_Owl Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Terrific, just what we needed Liverpool winning every trophy and being the greatest team in football history. That should make the scousers less insufferable? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Even if City lose this game (they probably won’t) I still can’t see Liverpool winning the title. GD could well be the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been at saints for the 0-9 Leicester and the 0-6 Chelsea game this season, sometimes the saints just don’t bother trying and that could easily happen on Tuesday . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
