    Guessing everyone got bored of you mate; (and i've not even looked back in the pages)

    On a serious note, you look tidy and tight right now unlike those below. Exciting? no but not boring. Liverpool threw away 6 points in recent games but the game against your (1st or 2nd team?? 2nd that night I imagine) was Liverpool back to what they can do. Missing someone solid in front of the back 4 though.

    Jose is getting his swagger back, still not been great but a result or two helps. has closed up 2 -6 place. I'll worry about the league once January has started though. Look at spurs last season

    Early in the new year is the traditional time for a few teams seasons to crash and burn. You lot could be in with a shout if you didnt leak so many goals. Lets see what happens as youre playing City and Manure in the next month.

    Could crash on Monday if Everton decide to use us as a launch pad to buck their form. They've not lost at home either this season.

    You'll have a blip at some point it is just a question of who has the biggest blip. I'd bet on a loss v United but could take 3 points from City

    You know it's the hope that kills you!!! - after beating Arsenal at the weekend I'm sure the fans will be up for it, just not sure the team will be as they seem incapable of stringing together a performance for a full game let alone a run of games. If nothing else I hope we kick the sh** out of you and render your forward line redundant for the Xmas period. :twisted:

    Nothing like a bit of friendly Merseyside rivalry :D

    C'mon Everton :wink:

    Its hard to be bitter when you're top of the league :)

    Just hopeful that Everton can 'do a Bournemouth' and help us get that points gap up to 9 :wink:

    Costa & Kante out of the match vs Cherries.
    Just keeping my fingers crossed that Harry Arter doesn't get his 5th booking on Sunday against the Saints.
    And for all those concerned it is not a south coast derby as there has been very little history between the clubs. Where as Saints v Pompey is as bad as Celtic v Rangers. This something to do with dockyard strikes and blacklegging.
    Always be yourself, unless you can be Aaron Rodgers....Then always be Aaron Rodgers.

    See you at The Bridge...

    Arsenal 9 points behind and City 10 points behind. So no pressure whatsoever on either team to win tomorrow :wink: Can Arsenal take advantage of a weakened City, or will City bounce back?

    That'd be the best result for both of us (with a few red cards chucked in for good measure). I'm just waiting for Timbo to wade in with something about 'JCLs' :)

    Not quite true, there's a fair few wools' and most of North Wales for us. Wish I knew how to post photo's of the many FKW Scandies who attend RS games, they are a credit to your fine club :roll:

    City were sh1te in the first half and the @rse were even more sh1te in the 2nd.
    Statistically, 6 out of 7 dwarves are not happy.

    The banter in here isn't quite the same as when Chelsea play....

    I saw Timmeh lurking around as well, guess he was too distraught to post anything :P

    And just for the avoidance of doubt...no, we are definitely NOT 'envious' of Chelsea. Far from it 8)

    Sorry to disappoint Stevo. another team in Blue managed to lose, and you are still not top of the table that matters (the Fantasy league one)
