Whats your point, mine was that neither side went for the win for fear of losing, yours is?

My point - shared by most of the newspapers and the comments from players from both sides -

is that it was that it was Utd who were looked to be pushing for the win in the second half,

with City much the happier to take a point. I'm certainly not saying Utd went gung ho for it

as Berbatov would have stayed on the pitch when Hernandez came on.


I think Utd were there for the taking, shame not to see City go for jugular.

Either way it was a crap match and I'm more inclined to agree with Emerson on this one but you're right they were there for the taking.


Aston Villa 2 Man Utd 2

Man City 2 Birmingham 1

Newcastle 3 Fulham 2

Tottenham 3 Blackburn 1

West Ham 1 Blackpool 1

Wigan 2 West Brom 2

Wolverhampton 2 Bolton 1

Stoke 1 Liverpool 2

Everton 2 Arsenal 3

Chelsea 3 Sunderland 0

Hardy har har - I hope you don't actually bet!!

Given Man U have been decidedly average this season for the most part and are still in the race only improves their chances I think. I don't think they can get any worse. If they hit form the others will have to too. I have a suspicion that Chelsea may have just gone over the hill though Man U may not have quite enough to be worthy champions either. Pretty average all around really.

No, but nor do I post sectarian poison on here either. While my predictions may be amusing to some, your sectarian rubbish isn't.

I was at White Hart Lane on Saturday and once again Gareth Bale immense. We played some great football and could have won it seven-nil but then we let in two stupid goals at the end.

Watched Sunderland batter Chelsea yesterday and they thoroughly deserved their win. Makes the Spurs result last Tuesday look quite respectable now.

Tell me about it, Danny was superb, but then again the whole Sunderland team were superb, performance of the season so far.

I don't think Hernandez is a starting player at the mo, that's twice I've seen him start a match and not have much impact. Although he's not much helped by the return of Berbatov'z flailing hands in the air histrionics. The stage is set for the Rooster to save the day and all will be forgiven.

Looks like the League is up for grabs again this season, I think the 'top' teams are weaker, but credit has to go for the so called lesser teams, on their day they are more than capable of giving them a bloody nose.

This season has been refreshing with the so called lesser lights putting in some great performances. Lets hope it goes all the way to the 38th game of the season, rather rather fizzle out after 30 or 32 games. I've watched Sunderland live a few times this season, and to be honest yesterdays result was not a huge shock, they've played well enough to suggest they can turn over a team in that manner.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls.
