    Burnley are some distance away from Palace. Glasner is better than Kompany, and a number of their players are decent. Burnley are a team trying to play champagne football with soda stream players. Palace adapt and make it difficult, whereas Burnley just want to play like Man City. We need to be pretty well set up to counter against them as they will come forward. I think we really need to be going with a back 3 in this one. I like both Tino and Hall as wing backs and think all of our CB's need extra protection as none of them are good enough in a duo. With that in mind we could then go with just Bruno and Anderson in the middle, which finally gets Longstaff out, and a front three of Barnes, Isak and Gordon.

    It's champagne in the ****ing championship though, they're a perfect example of a team not upgrading properly for the Prem.

    If Forest beat Sheff Utd (likely) and we beat Burnley, then we basically relegate Burnley.

    Good, another **** team out division and the reason Everton are staying up.

    I predicted who the ref would be for this game last week
    (pity I can't get the score predictions as good :emoticon-0106-cryin)

    Referee: Anthony Taylor. (has been shocking of late)

    this will be his 4th game involving us this season ALL away from St. James'
    Draw away to Wolves
    Loss away to Liverpool
    Win away to Forest

    upload_2024-4-30_11-18-24.jpeg

    3 penalty shouts for Forest turned down against Everton - 2 were cast iron pens
    yet gave a ****ty pen to the diver Jota against Newcastle
    Gets picked to represent English refs for the summer European games
    Has another shocker with West Ham v Liverpool
    Reffed PSG v Barcelona
    Now reffing Dortmund v PSG on Wednesday 1st May after his short journey up the road to Turf Moor
    PGMOL don't want to over work him




    Assistants: Gary Beswick, Adam Nunn.

    Fourth official: Tom Bramall.

    VAR: John Brooks.
    Assistant VAR: Nick Greenhalgh.

    You should start a new "Hung's Official Match Official Prediction League"

    3 points correct ref
    1 point for each assitant
    1 point 4th official
    2 points VAR
    1 point VAR assistant
    5 bonus points for guessing how many dodgy VAR decisions impact the result
    10 bonus points for a perfect prediction

    Away at Liverpool was a **** show, but the Luton loving VAR are to blame for Everton

    100% agree. So no need for me to add anything extra.

    Is there a football team, anywhere, which makes you sit and smile? A team which makes you think “they’re doing great - no complaints from me about the players, the manager, the coaches, the finances, the stadium etc”?

    That’s a good question. Why did they? They are owned by wealth just like we are.

    I would have thought most PL clubs would have been against this proposal.

    Will it inflate transfer fees even more?
