Football

And David O'Leary.

just as we start our run of 36 games in 31 days we lose our most influencial midfielder for a month or 6 weeks

heal up quick fabinho

While everyone sheds their failing big name managers, Dean Smith signs a new 4 year contract. Hopefully he can arrange for Ole to get the bin this weekend with a second win at Old Trafford since football began™. (What a wretched stat.)

Those of us who are committed to seeing a game in a pub with real people, do we have a pub picked yet?

Lol. Ex-player too. He’d be perfect to reunite the fans behind the board.

Rafa.

No - not yet. Any thoughts?

South Pub somewhere showing football?

City drawing 2-2 with newcastle!
Ooof!

2 cracking goals also

Alli is reborn. I don’t like Spurs or Mourinho but weirdly I’m kind of hoping he makes good things happen there.

Perhaps it’s because I never want Man United to get into the top four again.

Both goals have come from long balls over the top. Mourinho’s tactical insight is to go more route one!
Not currently complaining as we’re two nil up. But it is interesting, how we’re not as obsessed with possession for possessions sake...

Well blow me down with a feather 😲

Edit: Meh, still pretty damn content

well in newcastle and west ham
come on everton for a nigh on perfect weekend

The outpouring of love and respect for David Martin is making me emotional:

@lions_1885

I hope David Martin falls down a well, the ginger cunt.

Really quite an unlikely scenario - how often do you encounter a well these days? When wishing a specific ill on someone, at least make it a plausible one.

Must hurt for a Millwall fan seeing a player who was on their books for 2 years accomplish so much more in his first appearance for West Ham.

So glad he was called up today, Roberto has been worse than woeful. Antonino coming back and leading the line instead of Haller was a welcome change too. Looking forward to seeing the highlights after being at work all day.

Antonio was great for West ham yesterday if he can stay fit he will be a huge plus fir West ham.

Chelsea just lacked a spark yesterday lots of the ball but very few chances was going to be tough once West ham went 1 up and sat deep. I was surprised Giroud got the nod ahead of Batshuayi.
Never good to loose to West ham :(.
one positive was Rese James looking more and more settled. He is some player.

Quique fails to bloom a 2nd time.

Ljungberg has his work cut out to fix Arsenal defence.. Radio 5 Live

no shit sherlock..

With all the draws by the teams beneath us, keep hold of fifth.
Big game against utd midweek.

rodgers is squirming.

Might have to put a few quid on Wolves vs Leeds in the next draw for the FA Cup.

Right - next week. Wednesday 11th. I'm way out west now so not going to venture too far north. Somewhere south of central and not east. Anyone got a good suggestion for venue?

1 - Ru (either date)
2- cliveo (11th only)
3 - chalfie (either -both will take a monumental amount of planning. Thursdays are easier)
4 - jonny (either date at this point)
5 - andyp (either date)
6 - sheriff Blackfoot (would prefer 10th as spurs may have a do or die game vs Bayern on the 11th)
7 - ramsaye (please send vconf details)
8 - dst (might come, might not)
9 - Clever Pun (love a list)
10 - middleofnowhere (would prefer Wednesday in a pub with no WiFi)

Watching Premier League football legally in my own home. What a time to be alive
