Saturday football

[Coffee]

"WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS vs TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR (1230) Wolves now have the unenviable record of being the first side to have lost to hopeless Sheffield Utd this season. Spurs are not likely to be the team they’d want to play after that. But if Gary O’Neil can summon the best of his man management skills, he might be able to instill a sense of getting back on track in his players. Might. Away win. ARSENAL vs BURNLEY (1500) Burnley are one of a pack of four that finds itself increasingly adrift at the foot of the table. Arsenal are one of a pack of four at the top of the table. Home win. CRYSTAL PALACE vs EVERTON (1500) Palace have become spoilers par excellence and Everton won’t fancy their chances at a cold and miserable Selhurst Park. Still, they’re gaining ground and confidence. Draw. MANCHESTER UNITED vs LUTON TOWN (1500) Things aren’t too rosy at Old Trafford these days. Luton expect little from this season, so the pressure’s all on this hosts. A surprise in store? Possibly but not probably. Home win. BOURNEMOUTH vs NEWCASTLE UNITED (1730) Media eyes will be on Eddie Howe. They’ll watch his current side go to his former employers and return with all points easily in the bag. Away win. *SUNDAY* ASTON VILLA vs FULHAM (1400) It was a close shave for Villa in Europe this last week. Has their discipline and confidence taken a knock? No. Home win. BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION vs SHEFFIELD UNITED (1400) Both these sides recorded magnificent and unexpected victories in their last games. Expect the Seagulls to continue their exceptional form. Home win. LIVERPOOL vs BRENTFORD (1400) Never underestimate Brentford, but Liverpool should still be too good for today’s visitors. Home win. WEST HAM UNITED vs NOTTINGHAM FOREST (1400) Hmm. Home win. CHELSEA vs MANCHESTER CITY (1630) City have returned to their accustomed league position. Chelsea, despite that extraordinary win over Spurs last week, haven’t. Away win. *CHAMPIONSHIP* Ipswich missed a great opportunity to go to the top, but messed up and remain three points behind leaders Leicester. The chasing pack are starting to show signs of separation, while the bottom three – Sheff Wed, QPR and Rotherham – remain unchanged. Millwall, who visit Sheff Wed this afternoon, are slipping and the Owls may fancy something today. The picks of today’s fixtures sees Middlesboro host Leicester and Birmingham visiting Sunderland. Southampton’s game with West Brom could also be interesting."

"Hahaha, well that's fucking hilarious, cunts have to stew on that for 2 weeks now. Wasn't the best of games but Wolves deserved at least a draw but were awful in front of goal until the end. I think O'Neil might be the real deal and a top coach."

[pdbis]

It makes tomorrow a must win.

[Willtell]

Well done Gary O’Neil. He’s got Wolves playing like Moyes never could. Wolves played out of their skins the whole game competing for every ball but no finish. Two excellent goals near the end to shatter Spurs so well deserved and I think they now go above us. Bournemouth owners must be wondering why they sacked O’Neil now.

[Too Much Too Young]

The essence of Spursy..

[El Scorchio]

It’s pretty hard not to like him. Especially after Bournemouth wrongly ditched him.

[kylay]

"Sir Alf, I was just about to say it's hard not to like him as a manager. How many others would have defended the point? Even if it was only 6 minutes"

[lowlife]

Hope the Bournemouth owner is watching. O’Neill strikes me as a decent and considered manager.

[Sir Alf]

You gotta laugh :-) This Gary O’Neill ( O’Wall ;-) ) fella seems to have something about him as a manager after all ?

[lowlife]

The media won’t be able to suck ‘Big Ange’ off after that.

[Coffee]

Would you believe it!

[lowlife]

That is hilarious.

[El Scorchio]

Wolves 2-1! Fully deserved. Have that you fat Aussie cսnt.

[El Scorchio]

Ref has lost control of this and has totally fallen for spurs gamesmanship.

[Coffee]

If only our Pablo would do something like that.

[El Scorchio]

That is a superb goal and Wolves really deserved that. They’ve been the better side.

[fraser]

"Gary O'Neil has them playing well, their finishing is abysmal though."

[El Scorchio]

They’ve really ridden their luck today.

[El Scorchio]

They’ve really ridden their luck today.

[Sir Alf]

"Stavros over at Spurs has instilled the same system of high line , pass and move , high press etc. Hard to accept it ( sticks in the throat ) but they are good to watch even with their best players out. The polar opposite of Moyesball"

[El Scorchio]

"So the ref has just watched hojbjerg blatantly dive near the Wolves area and roll around like he’s injured, and correctly identified it as such. WHY THE FUCK NOT BOOK HIM? Start doing that and it’ll fucking stop."

[fraser]

"Wolves all over them since they scored, pressing really well from the front."

[RM10]

Spurs 1 up Goose ?üòÇ

[El Scorchio]

Just flicked onto BBC and football focus was on. Feature on Eddie Nketiah and they were asking if he can be compared to Ian Wright or Thierry Henry? ?ü§£

[goose]

Spurs will struggle with injuries and suspensions. I fancy Brentford to get something at Liverpool.

[Mex Martillo]

"I agree with all except, I think Palace will win. I would like too say the Hmm for us isn't needed, but it's about right."
