Football 2017/18

[Rhiannon]

Cracking opener to the EPL but Leicester look like they've thrown it away.

[Rhiannon]

Two matches, thirteen goals.

[Nearly Sane]

And for the moment Huddersfield at top of the EPL.

[Rhiannon]

IKR. And a lot of sniggering at Chelsea.

[Nearly Sane]

I am just basking in a 4-1 derby win today

[Rhiannon]

St Johnstone?

[Nearly Sane]

No, not my team and St Johnstone weren't playing a derby. Greenock Morton

[Rhiannon]

Oh, ok. My knowledge of where Scottish football teams are is something like non existent.

[Nearly Sane]

In part it's the lack of place names in titles for a number. St Johnstone is Perth. Morton only relatively recently added Greenock into the title and we gubbed the Midden as we in banterly terms refer to St Mirren from Paisley.

[Rhiannon]

I am now basking in the glory of a 4-0 defeat. Groundhog Day for Hammers fans.

[jeremyp]

Chelsea have played two matches this season and their red card count matches their goals scored count.

Ha, I am Cristiano Ronaldo. To be fair the sculpture does look more like me.

[Rhiannon]

 

I'm Peter Schmeichel.

[ProfessorDavey]

Two matches, thirteen goals.

Indeed - really pleased with Watford rescuing a point in the 93rd.

It’s time for the management roulette game again. Who’s next for the chop? I have to say, my money for the first to go was heavily on Wenger but he’s probably in the clear for now. Will it be Hodgson?  I bet he hopes so! Will it be Koeman? What about Howe or Shakespeare?

[Rhiannon]

It will be Bilic.

[Rhiannon]

Scrub that.

Koeman.

[Humph Warden Bennett]

I am giving my brother a wide berth at the moment, he is a Crystal Palace supporter.

Old joke "Nothing wrong with the team that nine or ten new players could not put right".

[Rhiannon]

A guy I was dating is a Palace fan.

I find this mildly amusing.

Who's the one (or two) you'd keep?

[jeremyp]

And we have a winner. Goodbye Craig Shakespeare

In other news, I am somewhat disappointed that Crystal Palace have spoilt their perfect record.

[Humph Warden Bennett]

Who's the one (or two) you'd keep?

Julian Speroni.

I ain't crying too much about Palace since I am a Charlton supporter.

[Shaker]

And we have a winner. Goodbye Craig Shakespeare

I suppose that means he's been Bard from the ground.

[jeremyp]

Ronald Koeman has the total support of the club's board

Anybody want to bet against him being next?
