It makes me think back to the reminders we had on here about Puel doing so well and we shouldn’t have let him go.
One round later, and it now reads: Newcastle 46 Brighton 44 Burnley 44 Palace 42 Saints 38 Cardiff 38
Tonight is almost as important as tomorrow night. Cardiff v Everton Leicester v Brighton Newcastle v Burnley and Huddersfield v Wolves (arguably just as irrelevant to us now as results at the top of the league). The last 5 games form league looks like this: 13th Cardiff 6pts GD -5 LLWWL 14th Saints 5pts GD -2 WDDLL 15th West Ham 5pts GD -3 LLDDW 16th Everton 3pts GD -5 LWLLL 17th Fuham 3pts GD -6 LWLLL 18th Brighton 1pt GD -6 LDLLL 19th Leicester 1pt GD -7 LLLDL 20th Huddersfield 0pts GD -12 LLLLL So annoyingly the two teams that we could really do with losing this evening are playing teams with equally bad or worse form. Leicester is a bit of an unknown tonight being their first game without Puel. Everton is a bit of a flip a coin to whether they'll turn up or not.
