Dr Who? Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 All the leagues are a little dull at the moment. I have a both teams to score bet on..... I need goals.
Saint Garrett Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 Listening to 5live, pretty much every commentator is moaning about how dull their game is!
SaintBobby Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 In other news, the skates are getting very close to being dragged into the relegation mire in League 2
trousers Posted 30 November, 2013 Author Posted 30 November, 2013 Newcastle leading West Brom 1-0 at half time and up to 5th as things stand. Saints down to 7th.

S-Clarke Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 Results seem us drop a fair bit over the last few weeks, bit of a shame. But the fixtures have played a part. It's a bit frustrating that we play the likes of Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal and Spurs all in close succession.
Jack Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 Results seem us drop a fair bit over the last few weeks, bit of a shame. But the fixtures have played a part. It's a bit frustrating that we play the likes of Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal and Spurs all in close succession. After already playing just about everyone in the bottom half in the first dozen games? Was always going to happen. Still, I think we'll beat Chelsea tomorrow to make the table look unreal rather than just amazing.
John Cool Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 IF we beat Chelsea we leapfrog them (and other teams). In today's Times "Fink Tank" predicts us most likely to finish 8th. Probably about right but we can dream of top 4
jampot Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 Seems strange to see us on a lowly 7th place....
Saint Garrett Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 That's probably where abouts we're at though tbf. We should hve beaten Sunderland and West Ham at home, and probably done better at Norwich and Stoke. Those results will hurt us now as we play the top teams. Was always going to happen the way the fixtures were. If we're still top 8 come Jan 2nd I'll be happy.
Dark Munster Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 Seems strange to see us on a lowly 7th place.... Certainly better than 7 places above bottom in League 2. How humiliating that must be, for certain team "owned" by the bestest™ fans in the world.

Was always going to happen the way the fixtures were. If we're still top 8 come Jan 2nd I'll be happy. I remember last season West ham, Stoke and Norwich all had runs of winnable fixtures, west ham got the season off to a great start and were sitting pretty after 10 games. Norwich too had a very good run about this time last year when they won a few and went on a good run. Stoke had the best defence in Europe when we played them just before Xmas and were high up th tbable. When they played a few of the better sides again naturally those runs came to an end and they dropped a few places. I recall the shouting from the rooftops that West Ham were only were they were early last season due to their easy fixtures and they were now showing their true form. Norwich and Stoke were ridiculed as being terrible, sliding down the table and serious relegation candidates. I presume if we drop down to midtable after our run of, let's call them more challenging fixtures, the same rational would be used with us?

Turkish Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 Shouting from the roof tops = One or 2 posters on a forum. It was a lot more than that pal.
VectisSaint Posted 30 November, 2013 Posted 30 November, 2013 Seems strange to see us on a lowly 7th place.... Unlikely set of results, not least us being the first team to win at the Bridge during Mourinho's reigns, could still see us 2nd after tomorrow. More likely we will be 8th. Just shows how close it is at the top apart from Arsenal. But a bit of a gap developing below 9th amd the team in 10th we play on Wednesday.
Bearsy Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 Watching the undercard games today, Spurs vs Man U is pretty good. Kyle Walker is having a storming game to silence the critics, goal and an assist so far. Can't see Clyne getting past him for England on this form.
Saint_clark Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 Honestly think there's no contact on Welbeck there, maybe a slight touch on the back of his leg but that's AFTER he's going down.
Batman Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 Honestly think there's no contact on Welbeck there, maybe a slight touch on the back of his leg but that's AFTER he's going down. thought that. BT were fawning over the decision saying what a great one it was. thought welbeck left his foot in to be fair saying that, hardly blame the ref for giving it in real time

The goal was awful... quality set up from Walker for Rooney's first goal though, to be fair to him.
Batman Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 simple, win at chelsea and go 2nd what can go wrong?

Whitey Grandad Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 Honestly think there's no contact on Welbeck there, maybe a slight touch on the back of his leg but that's AFTER he's going down. That's what I thought. Welbeck tripped over the keeper, he wasn't tripped by him. If you watch Welbeck's left leg he makes no attempt to take another stride, he just leaves it trailing enough to touch Lloris's hand. He's already turning to look at the ref before he hits the ground.

I was out driving + collymore said something interesting, he said it's only foul if the contact stops the player doing what he was trying to do. Wellbz at that moment was trying to go down + lloris didn't stop him from doing that. If anything he was helping.
syd_barrett_saint Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 I was out dogging + collymore said something interesting, he said it's only foul if the contact stops the player doing what he was trying to do. Wellbz at that moment was trying to go down + lloris didn't stop him from doing that. If anything he was helping. Fixed it for you.
Batman Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 one thing I really noticed today. How much Sterling lacks in quality on the ball. all pace and not much else
Saint_clark Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 Really impressed with Hull this season. Now if they want to move on to the next level, they need to sack Bruce and bring in someone from the continent who learnt from Marco Bielsa.
Batman Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 Really impressed with Hull this season. Now if they want to move on to the next level, they need to sack Bruce and bring in someone from the continent who learnt from Marco Bielsa. they currently sit 10th. where were we 12 months ago?
Saint_clark Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 they currently sit 10th. where were we 12 months ago? I kid of course, Bruce is doing a very good job.
Batman Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 the commentator saying that hull winning would be one of the shock results of the season? really???
Saint_clark Posted 1 December, 2013 Posted 1 December, 2013 Us winning at Anfield and Baggies at Old Trafford are the only two so far I think.
