What happened to the striker you signed last January but was going to start officially in the summer. Forget his name, Donku?

Was injured up till christmas, got a couple of games and hasnt started much since. Think he might have some niggles not really sure as i havent been watching/following us that closely lol

Would be good fun if Southampton won tonight with their last game being at Leeds. Libby and Fosse cheering for Lesta, nobody else caring because you’ll be watching Arsenal.

Make it even more interesting if Soton do win.
There is a scenario, unlikely as it is, that all 4 teams could finish on 93 points but not out of the question that 3 of us do.
 
We defend infinitely better than we attack- think only Rotherham have scored fewer. Not much we can do if the wingers fancy it though. Atmosphere will be lively.

Could help us that you need the points to be sure of staying up, any team that put 9 men behind the ball, we struggle with.

I think we’ll set up pretty tight which worked at Leicester but can’t see us keeping you out down the flanks. You’re better than them going forwards. I reckon we’ll be ok by Saturday night regardless but we’ll definitely be playing for a 0-0 and hoping for a set piece. Even just keeping the score down could make a difference.

There's no way they're all catching you.

Lol, I remember my lot thinking that over 14 years ago...

All we had to do was draw, even that wasn't required if one of the other teams in the mix lost.

Outcome, all the other teams won and we lost something like 5-0 to the team who were already relegated, which sent us down on GD.

Ask @Libby he knows, we celebrated too soon <laugh> BTW that was the same season you were in L1 and got autos.
