Think that’s the year Leicester won the league... And Spurs dropping points means the title is back in our own hands ... 😂

adrian lord Posted 15 December, 2020 Posted 15 December, 2020 Wolves equalise. Our title aspirations assisted.

Are we allowed to claim that this game is 2 of our European chasing rivals currently taking points off each other? Or is that getting a bit ahead of ourselves? 1
Sheaf Saint Posted 15 December, 2020 Posted 15 December, 2020 Can someone please explain to me how Podence deserved a booking for that? Chilwell was timewasting, wouldn't give him the ball, and appeared to put his hand to his throat from the replay. That's ridiculous.
Sheaf Saint Posted 15 December, 2020 Posted 15 December, 2020 (edited) And then then he doesn't book Neto for simulation, after reversing the penalty decision because VAR showed it was a blatant dive. Bizarre. Edited 15 December, 2020 by Sheaf Saint
nta786 Posted 15 December, 2020 Posted 15 December, 2020 Wow please Saints win tomorrow night this season continues to surprise. Chelsea lose in the final moments

Sheaf Saint Posted 15 December, 2020 Posted 15 December, 2020 West Brom must be well and truly dreadful if they are resorting to bringing on Charlie Austin as an outlet when they're under the cosh. He was a spent force at PL level 3 years ago, and he's so immobile he can't even get out of his own half when his team are attacking!
whelk Posted 15 December, 2020 Posted 15 December, 2020 Love the way the BBC is at pains to promote women’s football and lists European scores ahead of the Championship. Even they can’t be arsed to show the score which must disappoint so many
Avenue_Saint Posted 15 December, 2020 Posted 15 December, 2020 Fair play West Brom. Got a diamond of a keeper there.

Lighthouse Posted 15 December, 2020 Posted 15 December, 2020 West Brom playing the last 20 mins with 10 men too. Well, Austin was on the pitch.

31cc Posted 15 December, 2020 Posted 15 December, 2020 Lots of rumours on Twitter and TalkSh*te (yes I know...) that Bilic is getting sacked this week despite the result tonight. Mark Hughes or Fat Sam being tipped ...😄

Sheaf Saint Posted 16 December, 2020 Posted 16 December, 2020 So it looks like WBA have panicked and pressed the Big Sam button.

saintwbu Posted 16 December, 2020 Posted 16 December, 2020 WBA will take a lot more points off teams if they do go with Big Sam. So i’m glad we’ve already played them once and got the win. They may come in handy for us throughout the season though.

Agree, but not sure he will take it this time. Been out the PL for a while now, limited trading options in January for players in. Would have to be an ever bigger turnaround than Ralph post Pellegrino, Hughes and Reed. At least SFC had some PL calibre players which eventually came good under a better manager. Most of WBA’s budget has gone on signing up last season’s loan stars. Hughes would probably take it, doubt if Howe would. Nigel Pearson most likely IMO.

Not really, they’re only 3 points adrift and just took a point off City, having nearly taken points off United and Spurs and were also 3-0 up against Chelsea earlier in the season before blowing it. Gallagher, Diangana, Pereira and Grant are all good players and they have a very good goalkeeper in Johnstone. I really don’t think it’s that big of a job, I think Bilic would’ve still had a decent chance of keeping them up too - we’re only 12/13 games in!

I’ve criticised Gao before but can’t remember him pulling the trigger like that remotely when people inside the club felt it was a poor idea. Pulled the trigger on Reed but frankly that was long overdue. We’ll find if Big Sam can keep them up as John Percy reporting in DT that expected to start in next 48 hours after COVID test and result. They have had Pulis and Megson, who are even bigger dinosaurs 🦕 so the football won’t be a total shock

AlexLaw76 Posted 16 December, 2020 Posted 16 December, 2020 WBA appear to agree with you ref Allardyce not being a long term option, given the length of contract. Would you have wanted to keep Hughes on, given he did well to keep us up with a side that needed shipping out? 4 hours ago, Sheaf Saint said: Because Billic wasn't actually doing too bad a job with what is arguably the weakest squad in the PL this season (a creditable draw at City last night), and Allardyce is never a good long-term option.

Although my view is certainly clouded by the parody Twitter account from a few years ago (Notthebigsam??) - was brilliant. Will be interesting to see if he can keep them up, and I'll bet Charlie will enjoy the hoofball.

East Kent Saint Posted 16 December, 2020 Posted 16 December, 2020 Fat Sam is past his sell by date ,surely WBA could have come up with a better idea ?

Jimmy_D Posted 16 December, 2020 Posted 16 December, 2020 Bloody hell, what a goal for West Ham there! Glad the Liverpool - Spurs match wouldn't load up for me now!
trousers Posted 16 December, 2020 Posted 16 December, 2020 Bugger. Can't go top when we beat Man City now
S-Clarke Posted 16 December, 2020 Posted 16 December, 2020 Brighton, once again, not winning after having most of the ball. They just have no cutting edge what so ever.
trousers Posted 16 December, 2020 Posted 16 December, 2020 When we play Leeds, I can't work out if it's going to end 7-7 or if we'll cancel each other out in a 0-0.

whelk Posted 17 December, 2020 Posted 17 December, 2020 Can anyone recall Burnley being in a good game?
OttawaSaint Posted 17 December, 2020 Posted 17 December, 2020 Clanger by Henderson, MgGoaldrought scores.
Lord Duckhunter Posted 17 December, 2020 Posted 17 December, 2020 They need to get that sweaty Mccoist off, he’s worse than Andy Townsend.
S-Clarke Posted 17 December, 2020 Posted 17 December, 2020 I hope Burnley get relegated, they are just pointless and offer nothing. They are just out to kill whatever game they play in and hope for a set piece to bundle something in off Woods head. What a load of crap. I can't see Sheff U ever moving off the bottom, they are there to stay. It will be a long way back for them I think, after a shocking season like this it often takes clubs a few years to regroup and go again in the Championship.
skintsaint Posted 18 December, 2020 Posted 18 December, 2020 Amusing the shit Ole gets for their PL form....if Utd win their game in hand they could go 2nd looking at the table.

Would you have him at Southampton. Would any club in the premier league swap their manager for the Manchester Utd manager. That’s why he gets shit, he’s a shit manager. In a season where there’s been 5 or 6 times hitting top spot so far, is it some sort of achievement that after somehow failing to progress from a strong position in the champions league, they may go second.
