    How come United had attackers in the wall for the 5th goal? I didn’t think attackers were allowed.

    So annoying seeing Sakho gifting Vardy that. He never looked like scoring till that gift, now its on.

    Have to be 1m away from the wall. Looks dubious in this case, but then again I'm rubbish at measuring distances by eye - especially on TV.

    Interesting. Just realised the 3 sides that came up in 2014/5.....

    Bournemouth
    Watford
    Norwich

    what are the odds of them all going together?

    The way it’s looking none of the bottom 4 will earn any more points, and Watford could stay up with 28.

    Ah ok thanks. I wondered about Vesty in our goal at Watford too.

    I am surprised that it isn't coming together at Watford under Pearson. I would have expected them to have pulled clear but I still think it will be Villa that will be joining Norwich and Bournemouth. Since football has resumed, the relegation battle has become more clear cut although I think the points tally to finish fourth from bottom will be very low this season. Sums up for me the fact that it has not really been that much of a competitive league this season.

    What?? He's been their best manager for ages? I mean when you have a useless lump up front who can't seem to work out where the goal is, a prima donna who falls over screaming whenever anyone comes near him and no really "good" players (even though they all think they are) and yet punch above your weight, surely that's not the managers fault? Crazy times .......

    I watched them v Leicester yesterday and was surprised at how easily the Palace players threw themselves to the floor after minimal contact.
    Zaha is massively overrated and a crybaby, and Benteke couldn’t hit a cows arse with a banjo.

    Reminds me of when Charlton sacked Curbishley, Bolton sacking Allardyce or us sacking Puel. The fans probably want better football but it can come at a cost

    Tuesday night could go down in history then, when Watford and Norwich both manage to lose the same game. :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Got to score that. Could have slotted in either side of Henderson.

    Think Jay has been playing really well - it’s good to see that. Always liked him

    I'm probably one of the very few that want the Spammers to beat the Toon.
