    In drama yes, in quality not really, look at the number of points in the top 6 compared to last year. Can't forget what an amazing job Nige did to get so many points btw.

    Apparently Michael Oliver was the referee for both Brentford v Donaster and Watford v Leicester! <laugh>

    Have never liked Watford and can't stand Brighton so I suppose I have to plump for Palace.

    No, no, no, Lamb. Not another London club in the Premier League. We want South Coast clubs in there to push us along, now that Pompey are no longer with us in any capacity and the Cherries aren't going to be there for 20 years, at least.

    So Brighton it has to be. Besides, my niece lives in Brighton, so I might get to another Away game. :)

    Sound logic TSS but I can't stand Poyet and have a long standing dislike of the Eagles going back to the 70's.

    If you prefer Palace then you can't stand Poyet and you have a long standing dislike of the Hornets. :)

    Overhearing utter joy is quite fun and, dislike aside, this can't fail to make you smile: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/22512064

    You can't beat the play offs for drama.

    I'd like a Brighton win - a little rivalry goes a long way, and it gives us a pantomime figure to dislike in Poyet now that Harry has departed the scene.

    If some-one had written that script it would have been thrown out as unrealistic!

    Yeah, you're right. It is pure Roy of the Rovers stuff. These are the moments in football that make it such a compelling sport for the interested neutral. Simply stunning. That actually makes last season's Premier League finale look slightly boring..! <laugh>

    Yes the Doncaster match started it. So may games with incredible finishes. Let's hope for more drama to come.

    Let's all take our minds off this insane Cortese situation with a game of football!

    Does anyone else think Zaha is enormously over rated? He's been complete dribble in most of the matches iv'e seen him play.

    I've not seen him complete a dribble which I suppose means that I agree with you!
