    Stuck a fiver on both Chelsea and Spurs to get a red card tonight. I think 40/1 is good value there.

    The BBC live text must be AI generated:-
    "Tottenham have pretty much every player back defending their box as Chelsea pass the ball about, looking for an opening. It has been a good start by the hosts, but they need to make it count."

    The club will be fined, Nuno and Williams will probably cop suspensions.

    So what would be appropriate penalties that would deter such derogatory statements from a 'wronged' club?

    Everton have changed their club crest on their kit tonight. I thought it was a kit manufacturer logo at first. It looks like a rocketship a 5 year old would have drawn!

    Nothing wrong with rocket ships. Reach for the stars and you reach the playoffs.

    Sheffield United are now in the 100 club with Swindon Town - 100 goals conceded is the most in a Premier League season. Looks like they will surpass that record with another two games to go.

    We can aim for that Derby’s record in the same season. I think we can do it

    My guess is today was finally when the dreadfully poor relegation "battle" came to an end. Forest have barely had to anything all season, but gaps of three points (plus superior GD) and five points (plus superior GD), over Luton and Burnley, I would expect to be enough.

    Last season, Forest's current total of 29 would have seen them relegated (because a maximum finish of 35 points wouldn't have been enough) - and last year was hardly a high scoring relegation battle. The bottom three this season really have been appalling.

    I haven't watched a Man City home game on tv since we were relegated and I'd forgotten what an ugly disjointed soulless plastic hive the Etihad Stadium is.

    Mismatched stands, obnoxious double ad hoardings that don't stop flashing, glowing stair adverts, absolutely befits the club it hosts.

    This utd team is turd. To think when Johnny Evans made his debut the regular Utd CBs with Ferdinand and Vidic. They are an absolute shadow of that team.
