The Fish

Played 12:30 twice, lost both. One was Man City, the other Villa.

1.26ppg in the PL. That form would put Leeds on 35pts, surely enough to survive at the expense of Everton?

They've scored 1 more goal than us and we've been without our main threats throughout the season. They're way better than before, but they're still wasteful.

I, and my testes, call it like I see it.

He doesn't, so he won't.

This window is going to be mad. Chelsea are a mess, they'll need to sell a stack of players just to address their FFP issues Liverpool need an overhaul, their midfield is decrepit and their defence is looking more and more shaky. Man City and Arsenal will want to strengthen, right? Man Utd will want to shift some deadwood and replace them Spurs will likely lose Kane and need to make him up in the aggregate We'll be busy, surely Whichever 'big' clubs survive will surely do some business too.

I dunno like, too early to judge.

You wouldn't? I would. No way are they beating the top 3 sides. They still have an issue putting the ball int he back of the net and Newcastle and Man City currently aren't finding that a tremendous challenge. Arsenal... who knows, they can't be thinking about shooting practise because they're too busy sitting by a rainy window listening to the Dawson's Creek soundtrack. Oh, and Southampton are terrible.

Scotty boy has an excellent record and you should put some respect on his name.

It's happening lads.

If Haaland wasn't there and they had some random jabronie, I still think Man City would be top half because they could rely on goals from their ridiculously good midfield to get them the wins. Spurs couldn't.

How much of your day was chasing away Mackem perverts?

No team in the league relies more on one player for their goal return. He's scored 10 match winners, Spurs have won 16 times. That's 62.5% of their wins have been because of his goals. Man City have relied on Haaland's goals for 40% of their wins.

and yet we're the DeLeWdEd JaWdEeS?

It's over rated.

Saved us from Relegation? We were in fucking Europe the previous season. Jesus Christ, he got rid of anyone who could play the ball on the deck and replaced them with, well exactly who Sam Allardyce would buy. He's a fucking long-ball merchant, and would 100% suck his own cock if he could ever find it again. I genuinely hope they lose every game, stay up, then peddle Sam Allardyce refusing to pay the £2.5m(!) bonus because he's cost them that in damage to the season ticket renewal and groceries.

Same as Spurs, if you ask me. They've been playing such bad football for so much of the season and I know this is a silly point, but without Harry Kane, I'm not sure they'd be top half. I've taken the top 20 players for goals scored per 90 minutes (who've played more than 10x90). Harry Kane gets 3.4 shots away per 90, he gets 40.9% of his shots on target, and gets a goal every 45% of the time. He accounts for 40.98% of Spurs' goals, and 32.34% of their non penalty xG. Of those top 20, that's 6th for Shot per 90, 11th for Shots on Target, 8th G/SoT. 2nd for % of Team goals, 1st for % of Team npxG.

Ketsbaia going mental on the hoardings "And look at Shearer, look at Shearer, that is game set and match, he's over to the Manchester United fans, who were giving him stick. Whips the ball in, well how does he get the ball in from there, Stanley Matthews at his best couldn't do that." Steven Taylor racing the length of the pitch to celebrate the winner against Celta Vigo Almiron v Crystal Palace

One idea is to have a reference table =COUNTIFS($E$3:$E$100,">"&G4,$E$3:$E$100,"<"&G3) Where E is the column with the times.

Yeah you have to feel for the lads who've endured Marlon Harewood, Dan Gosling and Gabriel Obertan.

Just curious, how old were you for those goals? Just wondering how much nostalgia plays in all this. Would a younger member look at the goals under Robson with more warmth.
