Tonight's footy 17/7/20

Current odds of a draw about 2/1. Would almost guarantee safety for both teams. 4 points clear of teams below with a draw and superior gd. So teams below would have to win their 2 remaining games and West Ham and Watford lose their last 2 games. Looks great odds to me

What do you think the chances are of Watford losing by more than 1 goal to Man City? Because unless you think it's next to impossible, the 4 goal GD advantage is irrelevant.

City have nothing to play for and struggled to. beat Bournemouth. Plus I don’t see Bournemouth or Villa winning last 2 games

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 5:35 pm

come on Watford!

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 5:38 pm

I'd prefer a Watford win, to give Bournemouth a chance of sending WH down with Villa.

Huddersfield 1 WBA 0

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 6:11 pm

Ah! wondered where this thread was thanks FF.

Yep Leeds on the brink, and Huddersfield almost certain of survival if it stays like that, Brentford with a real chance of 2nd, unless WBA wake up 2nd half.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 6:12 pm

gives Brentford a huge chance if that score holds

West Brom will win, still time for Leeds to mess it up yet

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:20 pm

Well, well, well.

Huddersfield 2 WBA 1

Gordaleman · Post by **Gordaleman** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:20 pm

Huddersfield 2-1 That's stunned W Brom.

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:22 pm

You know what's going to happen tomorrow, now... Stoke will beat Brentford.

box_of_frogs · Post by **box_of_frogs** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:22 pm

C’mon Brentford!!!

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:22 pm

They'll be turning cartwheels at Brentford, massive for them if it stays this way.

claretburns · Post by **claretburns** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:26 pm

Halifax winning 1-0 in their play off quarter final away at Boreham Wood.

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:31 pm

Full time.

Now, like I say... Stoke will beat Brentford tomorrow. It's how football often bloody works.

box_of_frogs · Post by **box_of_frogs** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:31 pm

Well I’ll say it - well done Leeds. Anyone who says otherwise clearly doesn’t remember how hard it is to get out of that league heading upwards.

Gordaleman · Post by **Gordaleman** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:31 pm

Final score Hudds 2 W Brom 1

Did what every Championship team has done near the top of the table - choked under the pressure. Leeds did too, but they just had **** poor competition.

Excellent advantage for Huddersfields winner. Never got a mention on comms and it deserved one.
Sad to see Charlie, one of the last decades great goalscorers, looking a shadow of a footballer.
Will he call his autobiography “ Charlie on Charlie”?

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:42 pm

Welcome back to the PL Leeds, what took you so long?

Huddersfield saving their skins for this season anyway.

West Brom are in danger of doing a Devon Loch, they were miles clear of the field, and they've just totally collapsed, and now it's out of their own hands.

SalisburyClaret · Post by **SalisburyClaret** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 7:57 pm

I wonder if Leeds fans can remember who their biggest rivals were in the top division

box_of_frogs · Post by **box_of_frogs** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:04 pm

C’mon Watford!

Bugger......

DAVETHEVICAR · Post by **DAVETHEVICAR** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:06 pm

WBA “goal” was offside
Austin was dreadful as was the referee who booked 10 players
WHU 1 up

box_of_frogs · Post by **box_of_frogs** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:10 pm

Boll0cks. I can see Villa staying up now....

FactualFrank · Post by **FactualFrank** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:10 pm

Game over already. 2-0 and good night nurse.

icu81b4 · Post by **icu81b4** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:10 pm

WH 2 up now

If you are gonna back the draw to it now utc

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:11 pm

Hammers running riot.

FCBurnley · Post by **FCBurnley** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:15 pm

Don’t think west ham got the email from Pearson or they turned the offer down haha

kritichris · Post by **kritichris** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:17 pm

Looks like Watford won't be getting any more points so lifeline for Villa or Cherries.

huw.Y.WattfromWare · Post by **huw.Y.WattfromWare** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:18 pm

I’m watching Halifax now. Just coughed up an equaliser. Straight to pens, I believe.

COBBLE · Post by **COBBLE** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:21 pm

Bxxxxxxs

Austin is nothing like the player he was. 26 league goals in the last four and a half years. I think things have caught up with him.

tiger76 · Post by **tiger76** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:26 pm

Wow! a blistering start from the Hammers, looking bleak for Watford, and a lifeline for Bournemouth & Villa. Gray on the bench once more i see.

Rileybobs · Post by **Rileybobs** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:37 pm

Rice doing more than nothing tonight.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:38 pm

3-0 Rice. Cracker.

Rileybobs · Post by **Rileybobs** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:38 pm

Watford's superior goal difference to the teams below is looking ominous.

Vegas Claret · Post by **Vegas Claret** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:39 pm

yep only 1 goal better off than Bournemouth and they still have to play Man City and Arsenal !!

Massive chance for Bournemouth and Villa now

mdd2 · Post by **mdd2** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:40 pm

What a strike from Rice
Only one in it on goal difference for Watford
But can Bournemouth manage 4 points to Watford losing to City and Arsenal?

Gordaleman · Post by **Gordaleman** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:43 pm

Nigel Pearson's face. Priceless.

ElectroClaret · Post by **ElectroClaret** » Fri Jul 17, 2020 8:44 pm

Watford looking weary.
If they survive, they'll be kept up only by Villa and Bournemouths ineptness.

And yet when we restarted and they played Leicester I thought they were the one team at the bottom who were showing some real desire.

Yeah, totally agree. Living near Watford, the locals are all in dismay and genuinely think they are doomed (even before the last 45 mins).

Looks like it's going down to the last day of the season.
