just looked on Skybet Fulham are 150-1 to win with just minutes to go

Not the most enticing odds I've ever seen! Haha!

City win now confirmed, so not a bad days results from our point of view. What do we want in the late game? Another draw probably but if we weren't in the bottom half I'd want Sunderland to win to really tighten the league up, it would leave the bottom 10 separated by just 5 points!

A draw all day for me! Like you say very tight at the bottom.

will have a better indication of who is going to struggle after the games on wednesday, everyone down the bottom is playing eachother near enough. Our fate still depends on who is brought in obviously.

thank you lord, sunderland snatch a last second equaliser! 2-2, denys cardiff a draw and keeps them both down there. they play villa next, could you imagine, if we won, and sunderland villa was a draw, dream new years day

All of the results have gone our way today, I wasn't expecting Hull to thrash Fulham 6-0. Palace played very well at Man City today only just lost. Well I think Sunderland's injury time goal just about sums up the last week at Cardiff. Cardiff play Arsenal on news years day followed by West Ham. I'm looking forward to Newcastle v Arsenal and Chelsea v Liverpool tomorrow should be too good games. I hope Spurs beat Stoke.

Liverpool got the Albion treatment at the Bridge today. Awful refereeing.

Webb isn't one for the underdog is he. But it's strange to think of Liverpool as an underdog. They bossed things for long enough.

A real dogged and gritty win for Arsenal Yesterday far from fluent but a big win towards winning the title. I was very pleased to see Spurs beat Stoke 3-0. With those back to back defeats for Liverpool I think their title challenge may be over.

Hardly, they've just played their two most difficult games and are only 6 points off the top.

I think Liverpool won't make the top 4, it will be City, Chelsea, Arsenal and United. Also City to win the league by at least 8-10 points

TheJacko2000 · « **Reply #1686 on:** December 30, 2013, 06:10:47 PM »

Can't see United finishing in the top 5. They're having a mini revival but that's all it is.

I know Liverpool aren't far off, but they have now lost at Arsenal, Man City and Chelsea. If you going to win the title then you have to pick up points in those types of games.

Spurs beat Utd 2-1. Januzaj booked for diving again. Becoming a bit of a problem with this lad. Going to get a simular reputation to Ashley Young.

I hope the glory hunting hordes enjoyed their long journeys home after another loss at the "theatre of dreams".

A massive win for Fulham today against West Ham, Big Sam must be really starting to feel the pressure. I'm really pleased that Tottenham won at United, despite a good run, they were really poor today. Also pleased to see Everton score in the last minute at Stoke and Arsenal winning again.

Jack Russell · « **Reply #1693 on:** January 06, 2014, 12:46:57 PM »

The demise of Man Ure might kill off a few annoying glory hunters in pubs

WBASPE77 · « **Reply #1694 on:** January 11, 2014, 11:41:46 AM »

Too big six pointers today, Fulham v Sunderland and Cardiff v West Ham. I'm also hoping for Spurs to beat Crystal Palace, Swansea to get a result at Man Utd. Liverpool and Man City to win tomorrow and Arsenal to beat Villa on Monday night.

WBASPE77 · « **Reply #1695 on:** January 11, 2014, 07:12:05 PM »

Some results went our way today, Norwich and Crystal Palace losing. Looking forward to seeing one of the worst penalty misses ever later tonight. I really think Gus Poyet will keep Sunderland up he has done a really good job so far after looking dead and buired, Adam Johnson is playing much better now and scoring goals.

Really weird that we didn't even move down one place yesterday despite how tragic it seemed at the time. I believe we could have actually moved up a place had Man United got a couple more goals.
Excellent and crucial away wins for the two teams at the bottom yesterday.

Awful penalty but I did think Brunt's at villa was worse, what do you think?

Re the penalty. Definitely not. That was far worse than the Brunt one.

Stoke 3 Liverpool 5. A great game today end to end. Charlie Adams goal was really good, however Liverpool getting a very iffy penalty to make it 3-2.

crazedwbafan18 · « **Reply #1699 on:** January 13, 2014, 10:43:43 AM »

Very iffy indeed. The refs are so corrupt and biased towards the bigger teams it is untrue. Clear as day handball and no penalty.
