'Even allowing for inflation, this thread is not worth 198 Terry Francises' - EPL 2017-18

tad ambitious maybe but i wouldn't be surprised if he gets the chop when they're at or near the bottom in mid-Feb

the promoted sides this season are good enough that at least 2 "established" names are gone. Swansea will be one. West Ham will be the other if they stick with Moyes till the end of the season

what will survive of us is love <3

West ham's next manager should be called tad ambitious imo

losing at home to gary megson: zero posts

tbf there's no shame in it [LOL!]

Ffs

I'm out drinking fyi

finally

Whoo! Crystal Palace have won a winnable game!

My 6-fold acc was killed by Spurs ffs, it was the most odds-on of my selections at 2/9 as well.

yeah spurs let my goals galore xtra bet go too

fuckers

Megson's still out I hear

chelsea v liverpool is lively. chelsea looking more likely to score

I obviously haven't paid enough attention

What a goal. No way he meant it but A+.

shades of Hoddle v Watford, intent notwithstanding

Also good because I had Chelsea and Liverpool as a draw along with Man United, Wolves and Fulham to win in my fourfold today, which I am sure will come as a consolation to any of ye who had money on Spurs.

party at shari's country pad

Unsworth looks so disappointed. It’s heartbreaking.

Everton, Swans and Hammers to go down? That would be something, if Palace could leap over them.

something horrific

No feelings lost w/ Hammers and Swans tbh. I don't understand what Swans have been even trying to do or build the last couple of PL years. They seem clueless within the luxury of PL.

So keep Unsworth till the end of the season?

that was a truly dismal performance from Everton. Ashley Williams looks like a drowning man

just want to post my monthly reminder that Danny Mills is a fucking cock

no need to remind me

get in! what a fun half that was

great performance from Huddersfield

gonna be tough to hold out though

It's only fair they beat City too, after Manu. Loving this.

I'm going to enjoy this until the second half annihilation!

oh ffs

Only good reason for Palace's continued existence is to torture imago by surviving in the premier league.

Any seaweeds in the house? Wd like to get my congrats in early for what is sure to be a cathartic thrashing by the home team on tuesday

What are seaweeds?

He means Brighton fans

thanks

I don't think a deep rearguard action with zero shots on target will look too good for Town on MOTD tbh. But with the blue + white tinted specs on that was mostly good entertainment. Wagner learned pragmatism in that disastrous first half against Spurs, can't blame him against Man City tbh - it was like the Wehrmacht vs the Belgium army in mismatched-ness.

we have two brighton fans, except one is actually a utd fan and the other is actually a liverpool fan (and i bullied him off ilx like a year ago, still ;_; about that tbh, come back pls)

Yeah tbf I am surprised he never came back. Miss him. No point really having Bundesliga/La Liga threads without him.

Watching Valencia-Barca rn. Valencia one up, and Barca p clueless. Suarez perpetually offside, Messi trying to dribble through brick walls. It's total pointless fitba tbh.

Never count him out. Amazing Messi assist 1-1

ha!

"Huddersfield fans singing "where were you when you were shit" at Man City fans. Huddersfield's average home attendance in 15/16 Championship season was 12,631 (third from bottom). Capacity of the stadium is 24,169."

Can't fucking argue with that rank hypocrisy.

getting "called out"!

we have two brighton fans, except one is actually a utd fan and the other is actually a liverpool fan (and i bullied him off ilx like a year ago, still ;_; about that tbh, come back pls)

Iirc the joke about man city fans when they were shit wasn't lol fairweather fans, but lol look at all these mugs still paying thru the nose to watch their shitty team and clogging up radio phone-ins insisting what a massive, massive club they were

the false memory syndrome of post-Prem football, where clubs that have achieved big dog status rewrite their history as monolithic and eternal: Chelsea, Man City etc

Man City were still very well supported in their league one season, whereas our support has more than doubled since them days. Literally half of our stadium didn't give a fuck when we were shit. Some of these selfie taking fucks with their tribal tattoos were far too busy being in the gym or going to centrist dad classes or something when we were shit!

man city only got out of league one because gillingham couldn't protect a 2-0 lead going into injury time
