This weekends other matches thread

And the wrist slitters can stand down from their paranoid state of readiness.

 

Well that will do nicely. If we had won on Saturday we would have had one foot in next seasons PL, oh well.

 

City are so frustrating to watch when you want them to win though aren't they? They just couldn't string more than 3 or 4 passes together from what I saw. And why Nasri gets allowed on a football pitch is beyond me. Slow and clueless, a shadow of the payer he was at Arsenal.

 

Phew...City made us suffer there. We got away with Saturday's loss, but oh, what might have been.

 

A bit of a let-off this weekend after all. But we have to take some chances.

 

They can put in a good shift against quality opponents, but they seem to sleepwalk against everyone else. Mancini (or whoever replaces him) might need to take to striding along the sidelines with an electrified cattle prod if they want to challenge for the title next year.

 

Moose from TalkSPORT: "Bolton have won just three of their last two games"

 

Beyond that statistical impossibility, De Ridder's incredible streak of staving off defeat when he is left as an unused substitute has been extended to a full ten games...he's now been good for six wins and four draws over the past two years.

 

He's also been returned to Saints this afternoon.

 

Shame.

 

Good; we need our talisman on the bench for the next couple games...so long as Poch remembers not to use him!

 

Ha ha good one!
