Saturday football

[Coffee one sugar]

LEICESTER CITY vs CHELSEA (1230)
The Foxes may be in 15 spot, but they still face a challenge to maintain their place in the top flight. Chelsea, in third, have built on last season’s promise and will hope to add more points in their unlikely hunt for second. Away win.

BOURNEMOUTH vs BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION (1500)
There are six places but just four points between these two. And with home advantage, you’d expect the Cherries to start favourites. But Brighton won’t give in easily. Draw.

ARSENAL vs NOTTINGHAM FOREST (1500)
Incredibly, both these sides are level on points, thanks largely to the hosts’ propensity for generosity.
Arsenal can’t be happy with their early season form and this is exactly the type of fixture that they will look to for maximum points. Forest, though, aren’t the pushover they were a year ago. Home win.

ASTON VILLA vs CRYSTAL PALACE (1500)
Villa are ninth but just a single point from the top three. Palace, meanwhile, are in the bottom three and there’s between little and nowt to suggest they’ll improve things today. Home win.

EVERTON vs BRENTFORD (1500)
The Toffees have scratched their way out of the relegation zone, but still have a job to do to stay out of it. On the other hand, Brentford have messed up royally this season, having lost all their away games. Home win.

FULHAM vs WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS (1500)
If Fulham had held on to their lead over us a few weeks ago, they’d only have Liverpool and Man City above them. But ifs and buts don’t win football games. Just ask Gary O’Neil, whose side sit second from bottom and looking at a relegation battle. Things don’t look too rosy for them. Home win.

MANCHESTER CITY vs TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR (1730)
Clearly the game of the day. City have fouled up of late and Spurs, currently 10th, could end the day in 14th. Should be a good game, but is this the time that the hosts pull their socks up? Yep. Home win.


SUNDAY

SOUTHAMPTON vs LIVERPOOL (1400)
Bottom plays top. What else do you expect? Away win.

IPSWICH TOWN vs MANCHESTER UNITED (1630)
The hype around Man U’s new boss may soon prove to be justified and they’ll be pleased with what the fixture computer has calculated for them today. The Tractor Boys won’t. Away win.


MONDAY

NEWCASTLE UNITED vs WEST HAM UNITED (2000)
A cold, Monday night game in the far northeast. Not what we’d really want. Home win.

Delap is a promising player, but his attitude stinks. Maybe that's why he were let go from ManC?

is that a fact? Hadn't heard that. What's the basis?

[Mad Ferret]

Can see Moyes doing a similar job to what he did with us.

Wouldn’t at all surprise me to see Leicester survive this season, then challenge for top 6 next season.

If they were to go into the Conference League, they would be favourites to win it with Moyes in charge. 

Proper club.

[Massive Attack]

Cooper gone, Moyes in.

Leicester won’t be relegated.

Like Sunderland?

One of the biggest fucking myths in Football when people rush to imply a Team won't get relegated with Moyes in charge. A horrific relegation at that.

[Massive Attack]

On a side note, I've briefly mentioned her name before but will suggest it again, Kelly Dalgish would be a decent MotD host and the best on offer from all the birds with Gabby Yorath running her a close 2nd.

Still Mark Chapman though if had to choose best choice.

[Keep dreaming]

Cooper gone, Moyes in.

Leicester won’t be relegated.

If that means you are off to Leicester, I'm IN

[Keep dreaming]

Delap is a promising player, but his attitude stinks. Maybe that's why he were let go from ManC?

[Massive Attack]

Peter Dreary is a classic example of shit middle class punditry in the modern game. I'd almost prefer listening to a Doris but have opted for Lowlifes skewer in the end.

[lowlife]

1-1 - hopefully that’ll shut Drury up going on about how Manchester United ahead look comfortable under the new guy.

 They’ve been shit so far, apart from that first minute goal that was apparently ‘utopian’.

[goose]

1-1

absolute beauty.
MU are still shit.

[Massive Attack]

Can’t decide whether to put it on mute or stab my eardrums with a skewer.

Put it on mute and save the skewer to stab Carraghers skull instead. 

[lowlife]

Can’t decide whether to put it on mute or stab my eardrums with a skewer.

[onsideman]

Peter Drury really is an insufferable cսnt

[side effect]

The best news today is that the firestick expired so I don't have to listen to the creamfest. Sky should give out sick bags.

[lowlife]

Think he’s just jizzed all over his commentary notes. The absolute worst start for a neutral. These cunts are embarrassing to listen to.

[lowlife]

Hope Ipswich win this, can’t stand the fawning of Sky presenters over their latest wank fantasy.

[Sir Alf]

New manager bounce still going  when they face us. We look on course for bottom 3. By xmas

[goose]

Cooper gone, Moyes in.

Leicester won’t be relegated.

Like Sunderland?

[fraser]

I wouldn't wish Moyes on anyone.

Unless he wants to sign our shit.. 

[twoleftfeet]

Cooper gone, Moyes in.

Leicester won’t be relegated.

[Manuel]

Now on the horn to Moyes telling him he loves him long time

[Manuel]

Cooper GONE.

All his own doing, the way he set up like a coward yesterday was appalling in front of paying home fans, Thai owner tells him to do one. I like that.

[goose]

That deflects from his chest on to his arm!!

how is that a penalty?? LiVARpool getting away with it again.

[lowlife]

McCarthy rivalling Roberto with some of this calamitous keeping today. 

[goose]

How’s that not a penalty?

[lowlife]

2-1 Southampton. That Dibling looks pretty good. 18 years old and getting his chance in the PL.
