I’m watching the Toon game on Amazon. The jerky picture is still gash on this channel, absolute turd compared to SKY HD.

A half decent game so far though.
 
My favourite Hammer as what he lacks in skill he makes up for with his effort, love a player who puts everything on the pitch.

We had him on loan back in our first league one season, cracking little player and we were all gutted that we didn't sign him.

Norwich gone......again.

They practically planned to go back down from the day they were promoted. A club with a total lack of ambition. Good riddance.
 
I’ll be more than happy to see the back of Bournemouth. Stupid ****ing club and their “Breath Of Fresh Air” Manager.

I'll be sad to see them go tbh, at least they've mainly tried to play good football and add more to the league than say Burnley and Palace. Always inevitable at some point mind, miracle they spent 5 years in it really.

Shame to see Norwich go too.

hoping we might make a move for Nathan Ake if they go down.
 
Jose.

"How long it took for Jurgen [Klopp] and Liverpool?" said Mourinho.

"Four years, four seasons. Buying one of the best goalkeepers in the world, buying one of the best centre-backs in the world and so on and so on and so on."

2.5 seasons to win the CL with 3 other cup finals along the way. So next season should be a cracker for Spurs.
 
Norwich may lack ambition, but whats worse? Struggling to survive and plan ahead, or just those mid table teams who never do anything, like Tottenham, Palace, Everton and others.

Think Norwich are trying to do what West Brom did 10-15 years ago and yo yo a bit while staying sensible financially, with the hope that eventually they'll have a base for a longer stay.

They did it the smart way, didn't spunk their wad trying to stay but will take the money and the parachute payments to build a better squad. Yeah, they'll lose their better players, but won't get mugged off because they're desperate for money.

Nothing smart about practically giving up before you’ve even tried. They’ve literally financially planned to fail, from the off, and guess what? They achieved their goal.

I’m all for fiscal pragmatism when required, but they took that to another level, and have trousered the cash and ****ed off back down. What’s the point?

What do Bournemouth bring that Palace or Burnley don’t?

A brand of football pleasing to the eye rubbish? As a football fan don't you like to see a league full of allsorts? Bruisers, ****s, ****s, ballet dancers etc

Burnley are cock blockers...no one really likes playing them and Palace have always got it in them to spoil a party. Even though my team has been at the end of these teams tactics...I still respect their way of levelling the field against the big boys.

Maureen is talking out of his hoop.
