The crazy thing is, despite playing crap it could happen, it's been that sort of season. I've no idea how we ended up top in November...

Worth a mention:

As a result of the ongoing troubles engulfing Bolton, the club announced earlier in this week that it could not pay this month?s wages as they wait for permission to buy an extra piece of land in order to push through the sale.


However, it has now emerged the side?s manager and his staff have dipped into their own pockets in a desperate attempt to come to the rescue of employees, thought to be around 300, who have been given empty pay packets.

Every cloud has a silver lining, that's one game closer to LVG's P45.

I watched the West ham game, I thought they were great, Payet is a little genius.

Looking forward to seeing Alli's goal on MOTD tonight Jah, supposed to be a world class finish. If you don't mind I'll save my man crush for the Euros only...

I think West Ham are genuinely a top 6 team this year - i'd only actually put Arsenal, City, begrudgingly Spuds and you have to say Leicster actually ahead of us, but it's not often that you can say you think you are genuinely a better team than Liverpool or United. Thought we were absolutely excellent today and we've still key players out, If Payet isn't in the french squad then they must have some players I don't know about! the bloke is moving into Di canio territory for me in terms of his genius AND he plays for the whole team too. Careful what we wish for eh :)

Interesting.

I remember Celtic losing 4-0 to St Mirren and hoping Mowbrey would be sacked. Same with John Barnes and supercaleyarefantasticcelticareatrocious


No spellchecker. But edited for spelling.

Five points this weekend.


1. Payet is what makes West Ham tick and top six certainties, without him they are mid-table mediocrities. Still, they are making good progress under Slavin Bilac. I take them to finish 5th. In the French squad Payet probably has Pogba ahead of him but I'm sure they can accommodate him as Pogba can play several positions.


2. How many people still calling Spurs a one-man team? We have quality all over the pitch. Very pleased with the progress we are making under Mauricio Pochettino.


3. Is it just me but does anyone else find Jurgen Klopp's antics on the touchline undignified and unbecoming of a manager. Especially when he celebrates Liverpool scoring a goal.


4. Jose Mourinho's begging letter to Man Utd is pathetic. How the mighty have fallen. If he wants to prove himself as a top manager he should join a club like Swansea, Norwich or Bournemouth where there isn't endless pots of money to dip into in the transfer market.


5. I keep thinking Leicester City will start to fall away from the top of the table but there they are still. I hate to say it but I think Arsenal will win the title and I think it will be Spurs and Leicester to run them close. Man City as much as you admire them going forward their defence is very shaky without Vincent Kompany.


End of season prediction

Top four


Arsenal

Spurs

Leicester

Man City


Relegated


Villa

Sunderland

Norwich.

How very English of you.


I have issues with the way Liverpool defend. I couldn't care less if the manager acts like an excited child when they score, I just want them to work on defending bloody set pieces.


Still, cracking match.




Spurs second? Hmmm.

Didn't he already do this winning the UEFA Cup and then Champions League with Porto. The EPL is not the only benchmark.

I certainly hope so if it means avoiding Europa. Basically if you're not in the top 4 then you may as well be in 17th, it makes absolutely no difference (look at Leicester).

And the supposed letter has been denied by his agent.

If you've taken the point what's the point of saying there not short of a few bob. It's the Portuguese league. They may be big there but their few bob is a mere pittance compared to several European leagues.

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
