Premier League Games 6/7 April '24

[homerdog]

Chelsea are rubbish, perhaps even worse than their manager!

Raz not even brought on as a sub. Makes you think.

Another dive..

Lovely
Get palmer back on for a pen : )

I am sure the American owners are already lobbying for a “Designated Penalty Taker” role to be introduced for that purpose. ;-)

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

Ffs Chelsea. Did they not look at the table. Could have gone level with rags....

 

[Phil1]

Raz not even brought on as a sub. Makes you think.

He’s been awful for the last couple of months so him being on the pitch would have been a bigger head scratcher.

And the mystery as to how we've failed to beat chelsea twice grows deeper.

If we don't smash them in the semi-final...

I was merely retorting to comments made before the game at the Etihad that Arsenal would bottle it and City would smash them, then Arsenal had the temerity to not play into City's hands and make it expansive and apparently that meant Dippers would win out from there and Arsenal had given up the league.

Now Arsenal will apparently bottle it in the remaining fixtures. Barring injuries they won't. We'll probably drop points at Spurs but probably win the other matches so if City win all their games they'll win the league.

Dippers are fragile, they'll drop more points, most likely at Villa.

Don't forget all 3 sides have 7 matches left. City and Dippers have only 3 at home, Arsenal have 4 at home. Anything can happen in supposedly routine away games so I'd actually say Arsenal having the extra match at home offsets the slightly increased difficulty of the remaining fixtures.

I'd say statistically City would be favourites from here, but you'll need to win at Spurs. Dippers may tail off now they realise the magic Klopp leaving miracle is a figment of their imagination and that real life doesn't work like that.

Just checked your fixtures for the first time, if you win the league from here with Bayern sandwiched inbetween then it’ll be a mighty achievement and I’ll applaud you if you do.

Plenty more twists to go, we’ve had a lot of ‘The’ Arsenal and Dipper fans on here the last few years telling us how the title will go. When we get down to the final four games and past the quarters of the champions league, then that’s when it’ll get real. For now, there’s still a fifth of the season to go.

I wasn’t criticising you removing the exchange, Jim, I was just explaining why I asked you, because you asked me why I did.

And I do know how thankless the role is, and how former mods are held to a higher standard to every other user. Hence why I stopped engaging with Lassel after it was obvious they were just trying to wind me up, as I know I would have likely been dealt with more harshly.

Not sure about former mods being "held" to a higher standard, to be honest. You won't be banned for falling below whatever these supposed standards are. I think we would just like a bit of understanding as to what the role entails from someone who has done the gig. But that's up to the member involved. Anyway; I'm in danger of doing what I try to stop others from doing, namely derailing the thread.

Probably won’t care when he looks at his payslip.
