I reckon the title and all 3 relegation places will be confirmed with plenty of games left this season.
Best league in the world

It'll get even more fun when Cheaty escape with a fine and the head chopping, gay-hating oil pumpers see that as a green light to sports wash billions into and through the fat, barcode peasants. Then, of course, there's the chavs and their fucking dodgy as fuck owner and his bent contracts and accounting. Give it 18 months and someone from a desert or China will be pumping billions into Everton too. We'll probably have VAR sponsored by Qatar airlines or a Malaysian finance company soon which in no way, of course, could ever look like there's match-fixing or corruption at work.

Evidently the Saudi's want out of Newcastle. They are fucked with PSR and have to sell at the end of the season, so the Saudi's are unable to do fuck all about it and the rules get even stricter next season when you can only spend 70% of revenue on transfers/wages, instead of 80%.
Villa currently spend well over 90%, so they are fucked too.

Hope Liverpool win convincingly today and just eliminate any remaining hope from those who still think there's a title chance

Yesterday I watched a god awful Man Ure side come from 2 down when all looked done. The spark of inspiration came from Bruno - little c.unt that he is - but throughout the game even when they were losing, it was clear he was their captain. Brave on the ball, not hiding and eventually it was his goal that sparked the comeback. A captain's performance

Compare that to our pansy captain. Hiding, bullied, terrible body language. He had a chance to take the free kick at the end and have his Bruno moment - but nope, he let's the Chavski weightwatcher take it and it's game over. I've had it with the guy. His stats for goal involvements are abysmal. He is a coward of the highest order and I'd now put him alongside that prick Gallas as the worst captain we've ever had. Just fuck off you useless bottle job c.unt

We need them to win to stop City from creeping up on us for the top four trophy. A Newcastle win against Forest would help too.

I read something about them the other day that said they are on a charm offensive now and have realised that lobbing billions at a sport isn't going to win them any friends. They've seen the backlash from the golfing cûnts with what they did there and how divisive that was and don't want to be seen to be doing it again. They've got half an eye on cricket now too, with a reported budget of up to £10bn to start their own league or buy into the IPL. Fuck knows but perhaps buying a shit football club in a fucking miserable and depressing area is too much fucking effort for little reward. If the rules are getting tighter and the sportswashing won't work then they may well just be ready to pump their money into something else.

For once they calling out the bollox VAR overturned penalty at goodison....questioning why they didn't show the angle from inside the goal that showed the (and they quote) "clear shirt pull"

About time it started being questioned

Surely citeeh's legal victory in the courts last week has changed all that PSR bollox ? All they have to do is get one of their other companies to sponsor the geordies for a vastly inflated amount and there is nothing the premier league can do about it now

To be honest mate we show a Europa League level of ambition so finishing 5th is probably what would be needed again before we see any sort of proper investment in the right positions. By then of course 2 or 3 of our best players would have left the club and the whole "project" starts again, a la Wenger

Anyone still thinking there's a chance needs to be sectioned.

Dippers are under no pressure at all between now and the end of the season. They could lose 12-0 today, 8-0 away to the chavs later on in the season and 4-0 at home to the choppers because we will keep dropping points all over the place. The only hope we had after their easy run of fixtures earlier in the season was to be close enough and then consistent enough to take advantage of any slips they would inevitably make and are making. Dropping points from winning positions against Manure, Villa, blue dippers and now with harder away games coming up too. They get emotional and have bottle run-ins numerous times. We haven't even made them sweat once this season. They won't even need to feel tense.

Forest have capitulated. From 1-0 to 4-1 down after 35mins. Shocking game management

I assume they need a pick me up fixture in the next few days.

Isak with two first half goals . There were a lot of doubters on here about us signing him a year or two ago .

Just htf could Arteta sell that clown the feather and not replace him , what the fuck was he thinking .

Have to say too didn’t realise how few goals Rice and Odergaard have scored but still if we had a striker even a journeyman well there’s no point going on about it !! Arteta is responsible for this shambles

Tbf though, nobody was doubting Isak's ability, but we cannot ignore his injury record - if any club spent massive money on a player with a bad injury record and it didnt pan out then they would be slated, but if a team with as many injuries as we do did it, then there would be hell to pay

It also needs to be recognised that yes he scored another two goals today, but one was a penalty and the other took huge deflection off defender
