FT at Stamford Bridge

Cheers Moyesy ! There may be an assistant manager's job in it for you in the future ! :pac:

Cant see him being happy in an assistant's role.
Boss or nothing I'd say.

Bloody happy that Everton got that result, Chelsea's set piece defending is woeful, woeful.

Great chance for us to take top spot today, if we win 4-0 its ours. Come on United

It seems to me, and I may be wrong, but does nobody really want 4th place? Spurs and City, throwing away points after points. Liverpool are struggling now, but at some point in the season they'll string together a run, and the way its looking, nobody looks able to take the chance. It's hilarious, but 4th place this year might be on like 55 points!

thats probably standard for 4th place, it's just because the top 4 have been so strong recently that it's been much higher

this league is immense.

so many talking about a Chelsea canter two weeks ago, including me, and now utd will be in the driving seat, with momentum if they win.

unbelievable.

you can add 3rd place to that too as there's only a point difference in 3rd and 4th.

Apologies, I read your post wrong mate, completely missed that.

Money goes back into the pot and people are asked to register again. It is the third time happening now, so the pot is getting juicy.

It isnt too unfair in this case as only one person got knocked out last week. But last round there were two lads left for about 3 or 4 weeks but then they both got it wrong.

Also now that the pot is big there will be a good few newcomers who have only contributed to the pot once.

no worries. it happens to the best of us. i had to read back again to make sure i didn't inadvertantly underestimate villa.

Following on from Seamus Coleman last week, Stephen Ward was excellent for Wolves today. Good to see some Irish full-backs playing well, given that its probably our weakest position.

Yup very solid performance and Foley did well when he came on as well.

Hopefully with all the Irish interest RTE will not dismiss the Spurs/Wolves tie in 5 mins.

Yup, two 6 goal thrillers and a end to end slug-fest between united and villa, a great goal by Figueroa in the Wigan game

And all of Liverpools main rivals dropping points...bar villa of course

And :eek::eek: Birmingham in 8th

Citeh have a legitimate complaint about the first goal maybe but not Bellamy's second yellow. From descriptions this afternoon it seemed like he was chopped in half and booked for diving.

Hull 0 Blac....zzzzz
