Couple of people have scored 16 apparently. Not him, obviously.

"...Blackburn Rovers in 1995 turned out to be an unsustainable blip..." So Leicester will continue? "...comparisons with Brian Clough’s achievement with Nottingham Forest in the late 70s slightly miss the point..." What? Was anyone awake when this happened? I was there. "...Liverpool in the late 70s were not unpopular." Yes, they were. "...it was hard to begrudge them success on that basis." It really wasn't. "...Robin Hood took on the Sheriff of Nottingham..." and that is fucking mythical. Wullie, you're brilliant and I love you, but that article is fucking shit. Some paid-by-the-word shithead grinding stuff out. No malo, have a rest, man.

This isn't really fair. Of course you get a larger proportion of dickheads in those positions than driving buses but some of the warmest people I know own/run very, very successful business. Agree with the rest. We can disagree if you like, I was only saying the same thing really. Trampling on other people and not giving a hoot is what gets these hateful people a lot of money. It's not nice, it's not fair, and it's not right. But that's life. Fucking , but here we are.

Fuck. Memories coming back.

That's what that lass at work says too, she was there last week and there are a couple of season ticket holders in her family, they are out of their minds with it all. Shit, man, that should have been us in 96.

I'm astonished to find I really don't give a fuck any more. How has it come to this? I'll watch the match, but it's all "ah, whatever" when we capitulate. Fucking Ashley, man. The fat fucker has broken my heart. What a monster, seriously. He's a fucking sociopath. To be expected from a successful businessman, I suppose, but still disappointing.

No way like Really? Take Mahrez and Kante out of that team and you are left with a relegation-battling side. They have players playing far above their potential because of the situation they are in, similarly to when we were 5th. We didn't have the 5th best team in the league that year, we had one or two class players and a load of average ones playing above their stations. The overrating of their players is unbelievable, they're really not very good Fair play to how they are playing etc. but nobody can tell me that their squad is any better than someone like Stoke or Everton. Aye take their two best players off them because that's just a totally fair and reasonable thing to do Innit. Like taking the two best players off any club wouldn't have an impact. I don't really have any feelings one way or the other for Leicester but what they've done in the last twelve months is absolutely remarkable and if they win will constitute one of the most Gobsmacking things in the English game for decades. Since Forest I reckon. There's a Lesta lass at work and every week she's like wtf? We're going to win the league.

Can't imagine Norwich getting much, maybe a point against Watford Possibly only 3 points for Sunderland (Norwich A) We need to win 3 at least. Can't see 3 wins from that fixture list. It may be my Sunday morning negativity but I can see Norwich getting a win v Watford and draws v Sunderland, Man U & Everton. I can see Sunderland scraping a win today and against Watford with draws v Norwich, Chelsea & Everton. That would therefore mean we would need to win 4 and draw 1 of our remaining games. Never happening. There's no way that both are picking up that sort of form, mind. As crap as we are, lets not forget why they are both still fighting relegation too. Agreed, I can understand the negativity surrounding us for our form but just because we're so bad that doesn't make other teams suddenly start to get better. The mackems will be resoundly beaten today. That's not helping my Sunday morning headache, man. SORRY!!! I actually meant resoundingly tbh Yeah, I finally worked that out. Don't apologise so loudly next time pls.

Well, that's a sentence I never expected to see anywhere, ever.

This. Very much this. We're a stepping stone, and it has now turned out we're a cowpat. Did that once as a kid and regretted it, I learned. http://cdn.makeagif.com/media/5-12-2014/hKpXJt.gif Wish there was one with a cowpat. That shit was disguised and as stinky as you want. All over my leg, dammit. The analogy continues...these players aren't doing themselves any favours.

Sadly The voting choices.

Terry Cooper was doing that in the 60s, man. When Owen's dad was playing. He's such a fucking tool.

Do you own a house? Might be interested in this bet...

Actually that was my biggest gripe last time, being a radio wanker. Having to trust someone else's interpretation of the game and seeing 10 secs of highlights. Come on, Rafa!

Chin up, man, it's only football. Loads of worse things, etc. I've got a worse relegation story, and we're not down yet anyway. 9

Like being found or pleading guilty to any of those things is somehow OK. Need to change your mates iyam.
-
Oh, you didn't. Joeyt will be twisting in his bed that he wasn't there for that open goal.
-
Shearer was a machine, so driven. That was all in his mind.

More likely is we go down, he decides he wants to stay and the muppets in charge manage to cock it up. I think they have a clause to boot him if the first two things happen. £££.
