First topic message reminder :

I'm shocked!

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Thu May 05, 2016 9:37 pm

Ahhh, see thats an absolute joke but I imagine it'll be widely supported

by **Hero** Thu May 05, 2016 9:42 pm

Yeah could be worse, could be basically given a stadium for nothing every year.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Fri May 06, 2016 3:13 pm

Dembele six game ban

by Duty281 Sat May 07, 2016 2:10 pm

The thought that Wayne Rooney will be starting for England this summer is astonishing.

He's so visibly short of match fitness, and is struggling to keep the pace in a stop-start encounter against Norwich.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Sat May 07, 2016 2:42 pm

He's been playing very well in midfield, and it would seem he should make that position his own. He's certainly a better option than any Woy will pick

by **Hero** Sat May 07, 2016 2:42 pm

When your club is still in with a chance of getting 4th you rest two really in form players in Martial and Rashford and stick Rooney up front with Memphis who's badly out of form supplying him.

by GSC Sat May 07, 2016 3:16 pm

And there go Norwich.

Martial got hurt in the warm up didn't he?

by Born Slippy Sat May 07, 2016 3:38 pm

Yeah, Martial was going to start as striker with Rooney in midfield.

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 3:42 pm

Part 1 of today's mission complete with Norwich losing

by GSC Sat May 07, 2016 3:46 pm

Norwich all but gone now. Have to win both their remaining games to have a shout of staying up.

United control their top 4 destiny if City fail to beat Arsenal.

Sunderland 0-1 Chelsea

Costa.

B'mouth 0-1 WBA - Rondon

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 4:19 pm

Chelsea haven't quite got their old tempo back but they are beginning to play with swagger like the champions they were. Maybe Chelsea's well deserved draw with Tottenham reminded them that they are still good players.

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 4:20 pm

As expected, struggling to do anything at Villa Park

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Sat May 07, 2016 4:33 pm

Well now this is the West Ham I know

by Holymiky Sat May 07, 2016 4:42 pm

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 4:49 pm

Terrible, lethargic first half. Embarrassing stuff against Villa. Had a dodgy feeling & it looks like it's unfolding to be a very difficult day at the worst club in the PL. Tiote & Colback is great sitting deep against better sides.....not Villa. Get Shelvey & Mitrovic on ASAP.

Sunderland 1-2 Chelsea Yahoo

by Holymiky Sat May 07, 2016 4:49 pm

Matic with a lovely finish.

Besides that goal from Sunderland the biggest threat has been Defoe, been offside a few times trying to get in behind.

Very dull first half John.

by **Dolphin Ziggler** Sat May 07, 2016 4:49 pm

Arguably the worst performance of the season. Fitting that the announcer has chosen "Start Me Up" for the first song at half time

by **Hero** Sat May 07, 2016 5:12 pm

The bubble has burst.

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 5:23 pm

We're god awful, can't finish anything. We deserve to go down, struggling to two draws against Villa this season. We need something special & soon.

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 5:27 pm

Sunderland have equalised. Newcastle will go down, if you can't beat Villa.

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 5:28 pm

We're relegated. Goodbye

by Holymiky Sat May 07, 2016 5:29 pm

Sunderland are winning.

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 5:29 pm

Bye, bye Newcastle.

by Y I Man Sat May 07, 2016 5:31 pm

Might still go down to last game. Need Everton to beat the mackems on Wednesday though

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 5:32 pm

How things can change over the space of minutes. Jermaine defoe a natural scorer. The advantage Sunderland have is that they score goals and have a natural goal scorer. They have also tightened up at the back. But Chelsea are still in this match.

Newcastle have to focus on getting that goal at Aston Villa. Seems to be a big problem at Aston Villa with Villa supporters disrupting play by throwing beach balls on to the pitch. Aston Villa are trying to avoid a record 12 defeats in a row.

by GSC Sat May 07, 2016 5:41 pm

Cant accuse Sunderland of lacking bottle this time of year then?

by Holymiky Sat May 07, 2016 5:42 pm

The thing is, we haven't played badly this game either, Costa has looked sharp again too but fair play to Sunderland.

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 5:45 pm

Villa relegated us in 2009, they've done in 2016 too

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 5:54 pm

Terry off and will miss his last game for Chelsea.

by Y I Man Sat May 07, 2016 5:56 pm

Does Rafa have a clause in contract that he can leave if toon relegated?

by Holymiky Sat May 07, 2016 5:56 pm

I think he said he has yeah.

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 5:56 pm

Decisive set of results. Newcastle have to beat Tottenham and Sunderland have to get no more than one point out of their two remaining games for Newcastle to remain in the Premiership.

What a terrible terrible job Steve McClaren did at Newcastle. His fall from grace has been precipitous.

It's over, mate.

At least toon can have another crack at villa park next year Rolling Eyes

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 6:08 pm

At the start of the season Mike Ashley decided to invest in Newcastle - but he had the wrong person at the helm Steve McClaren and took too long to recognise it. He knew that there were problems at the club last season with the second half of the season being played at a relegation form ... and so should have been paying close attention at what was happening in the dressing room.

Difficult to know what will happen to Newcastle in the Championship but one imagines Benitez will leave. Key is getting in a strong manager with recent form.

by Y I Man Sat May 07, 2016 6:12 pm

Ashley needs to tell Benitez "stay, get us promoted and I give u 75m for new players"

Nope, I will! It's his second sending off so it should be two games!

Suicide pact it is then! Hug

I thought I heard Jeff Stelling suggest that he won't play for them again.

Not in to opera music personally, but must have been amazing that at Leicester. Being a Liverpool fan I never expect to see the Premier League trophy at Anfield never mind an opera star :'(

by Guest Sat May 07, 2016 6:20 pm

I love me some Opera music. Chills.

If/When Liverpool win the league we're more likely to allow John Bishop to sing before the game to be honest mate.

Shame Oshea is a blue. I'd give him 10 minutes of mic time!
