Topic: Premier League Fixtures 11th - 12th November

[Caligula?]

I reckon Everton will finish somewhere between 12th and 14th and won't even have to worry about relegation. There's simply too much dross below them.

[Garlicbread]

Roy hasn't beaten Everton in his last 13 matches...

Wife's a blue isn't she?

[elsewhere]

how the fuck can a team concede 3 at home against Everton?

By having a corpse in charge

[1892tillforever]

They always get more points than their performances deserve in the league though. The year Ole got sacked and Ragnick came in and was hopeless they were absolutely dreadful all season long but still finished 6th. The Moyes year they finished 6th. They're always stuffy in the PL.

They have the same number of league wins as us now. They're able to get jammy wins away from home while playing like crap.

Only hope is points deduction then administration

[1892tillforever]

At least one top 4 rival dropped points anyway. The Mancs and Arsenal were always winning today.

the Mancs, top 4 rival?

I think they might stay up with a 21 point deduction at this stage! They might only need a regular 40 point season at this rate.

I remember them breaking the record for consecutive away wins under Ole. They were outplayed in most of them.

[Dim Glas]

that free kick from OIise

[1892tillforever]

the Mancs, top 4 rival?

In theory. They are only 3 points behind us.

In practice, the fact they're a bad football team will see them a long way off I would imagine.

We need our away form to pick up substantially. Can't be dropping points to shit teams like Luton too often. It can't be understated how awful that result is.

both fair points

[Solomon Grundy]

Are people back to worrying about Man Utd?

[Wabaloolah]

Another impressive one goal win for the United version of Manchester, corner turned again

[1892tillforever]

Are people back to worrying about Man Utd?

Not me. Just pointing out the fact they are only 3 points behind us.

They will probably win only one of the 3 against Everton, Newcastle, and Chelsea. They will also get a slap at Anfield. I suspect they'll be 9-10 points off fourth by New Year's.

[Wabaloolah]

Are people back to worrying about Man Utd?

I doubt it, they were always winning today

[Fruity]

Are people back to worrying about Man Utd?

It's in my DNA.

What makes it worse is all my family support them and I only see them a few times a year - Christmas day being one of them and we have to play them on Christmas eve. Don't get me wrong I think and hope we will win but can't bear the thought of them getting a bit of form going.

[Baby Huey]

Only Red Mancs.

And what happens if we get a "bit of form" going?

[Stockholm Syndrome]

Are people back to worrying about Man Utd?

They are getting there

[decosabute]

Are people back to worrying about Man Utd?

What? They're shite. This was in their top 3 easiest fixtures of the season and they still only scraped a 1-0. They'll be back to making a show of themselves again as soon as they play anyone decent. And there's still a fair chance they finish bottom of their CL group. I'm fine with them beating the shite, cos otherwise the bald fraud is gone before we play them.

They've lost 3 of their last 5 matches, they are hardly on course for getting a bit of form going

[oojason]

In the 5.30pm kick off...


Bournemouth XI: Neto, Aarons, Zabarnyi, Senesi, Kelly; Tavernier, Cook; Semenyo, Christie, Kluivert; Solanke.
Saudi XI: Pope, Trippier, Lascelles, Schar, Hall, Longstaff, Miley, Willock, Almiron, Gordon, Joelinton.

I hear that, but I just want a nice happy christmas day. With us winning comfortably on Christmas eve. Why schedule a game like that for Christmas Eve. Think of the kids.

Idk friend to me it sounds like you'd be absolutely shit scared of that match no matter how United were playing.

Yes you are correct and no good will come from it.

I think the PL aka Sky tried it but got a ton of backlash.  I think the only game on Dec 24th now is the Chelsea-Wolves game

edit: that headline is extremely misleading, the article says we play on 17th.

now your Christmas mood with the family will depend on what happened a week earlier 

[Dench57]

Finally, a Newcastle game on telly!

[OkieRedman]

They have the same number of league wins as us now. They're able to get jammy wins away from home while playing like crap.

Last week was the perfect example of that. Did fuck all and got a goal at the death via defenders kicking it off each other's asses. It was a calamity of errors, which is the exact thing Luton did not do. They played as perfectly as they could ever hope of playing vs us. Not one glaring error at the back.

[Fruity]

emotions should have dropped by then. Hopefully I can be sitting there looking rather smug holding my turkey neck and stuffing balls.

[Hazell]

Should Eddie Howe holding a poppy wreath? I'm sure he'd say he doesn't know enough about what it symbolises?

not easy to do, that. 

[MonsLibpool]

Why are Newcastle always on TV? Who cares?
