    Well done The Cherries, but that is a bit of a low bar :)
    Seems a bit high for some teams :)
  • such joy at the Manure result .....

    Ssnchez: £500k a week plus bonuses and he's on the bench. pogba substituted. wonderful.

    In hipster news, Fort William FC added 50% to their season's goals for tally today, scoring 3 at home vs 2nd from bottom Lossiemouth. Bad news, Lossiemouth scored 4. An improvement though, average goals against this season now down to only 7.7 per game. Points tally still remains at -8.

    I think we should all sign the 'keep Mourinho' petition.
    Just to maintain dignity, sense of fair play, justice and employment rights.

    Just following and enjoying the Manure vs Newcastle match. The post match interview will be good if it stays like this :)

    Always that premature? :lol:
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Still 5th nearly one month on from my post.
    2017/18 - 16 points from 16 games
    2018/19 - 16 points from 8 games

    Whilst some might say we've only played one of the big 6, it's still a very tough league.

    On a down note. Doesn't look like the new stadium or training centre are going to happen. This might be the catalyst for team Howe/Tyndall to depart for a big club...... Man Utd ?
    Always be yourself, unless you can be Aaron Rodgers....Then always be Aaron Rodgers.

    Fair play to Bournemouth, there's some decent gravity defying going on there. Wolves are the other team that are exceeding expectations so far.

    You can add Newcastle to that list. Especially after yesterday - talk about being on a downer.

    Quite an easy game against the Scummers. Next today it's the PL trophy dodgers vs the CL trophy dodgers - a scrappy draw with some red cards would be good :)

    The Football Ramble podcast has a 'Ramble Meets...Howard Webb' episode which is a good listen. Comes across as an entirely sensible guy.

    Arsenal were lovely to watch last night. I wouldn't want to be next up for them in the league. Gotta chuckle at who is though.

    Like I said a while back, the Arsenal renaissance is complete as they are back in 4th spot :)

    The fantasy that is Fort William FC turned in a remarkable peformance this weekend - this after gaining a point midweek in their 2nd draw of the season to take them to the giddy heights of -7 - by recording a 13-0 defeat away to Fraserburgh. Back on form.

    With 18 games played this season, goals against now total 131, an average of 7.3 per game. If this form continues, projected goals against total for the season (34 games) will reach a magnificent 247. Look on their works ye mighty and despair.

    Sarri is doing well for his first season in the PL. Apparently the 12 games unbeaten in the PL is a record for managers in their first season.

    agree completely - he's come in without the normal broo ha-ha and done a fantastic job all under the radar without annoying anyone. Great job is what I say.

    same as Arse dude - doing really well.

    Pep, Sarri, Arse man - shows that you don't need to be bitter Mourino or twaaatt Alardyce.

    Interesting. No contribution from the self-proclaimed Fort Bill (sic) native Fishybot. Perhaps the Russian media don't bother with the 5th level of Scottish football.

    Best spurs result at Wembley since we beat Real Madrid last season. Really should have scored a few more, looked threatening every time we were on the attack.

    Never thought I’d say it, but Sissoko has finally had a few good performances.
