Life gets better. 1-2 Leicester

Brighton play such lovely football

pretty sure that's the first Leicester goal I've ever cheered !!

Get innnnmn!!!!

Did well to finish that. He couldn't have seen the ball until late.

Now that'll definitely do

That was justice because Vardy should have had a pen. If you look closely you can see they think dunk touches it out but it was actually Vardy that got to it first.

Makes our point look pretty good

LeadBelly · Post by **LeadBelly** » Sat Mar 06, 2021 9:48 pm

Big appeal for a Leicester peno, narrowly turned down by Var- then Leic score anyway after the goalie flaps at a corner & misses.

Might be fun to visit that BHA forum again tonight

Vardy looked for the pen

Excellent result. Hopefully the Baggies can do us a favour too.

Potter will stick to his footballing philosophy.....right in to the Championship.

For all their pretty footy they're now winless in 6, 3 defeats on the spin, and they've only won 5 all season.

But they're easy on the eye aren't they, and surely that's all that matters isn't it.

Justice at Brighton on Phil Bird's birthday. How very fitting.

How anyone could want Newcastle to go down over Brighton after how unbearable they've been since we won the champ is beyond me

Brighton

....the gift that keeps giving.....late on ...love it,if it wasn't for the current bottom three already being relegated..I would have loved to see these go down.

Rileybobs · Post by **Rileybobs** » Sat Mar 06, 2021 11:14 pm

I saw Brighton were 11/1 to be relegated before they kicked off tonight. I thought they were crazy odds. They’ve now shortened to 15/2 and are now justifiably at shorter odds than us. I don’t think they’ll go down but 11/1 is just silly.

It'd be worth Newcastle going down just to see Hendrick and Shearer's tears.

Can't believe anyone would want them to go down, they play pretty football and that's all people want to see because its effective...

Oh wait

They were 20/1 last week, this is the first time that their odds are shorter than ours.

Just had a delayed ballocking for shouting get ******* in last night when Leicesters winner went in. Mrs SC was asleep on the settee a couple of reds too many and I awoke her up and she’s just remembered

Well I do. Just because of Mike Ashley. Want him to take them down 3 times and see their value plummet,

All Baggies but they are powder puff in front of goal.

Jeff Hendrick is the top league goalscorer in Newcastle United's starting XI. He's had one shot on target since the opening weekend.

Do they have a strong team. The lack of character without Henderson and VVD is amazing

With what's at stake, you'd expect both teams to be going for it. Pitiful !

On this showing, neither West Brom or Newcastle will finish above us at the end of the season.

claptrappers_union · Post by **claptrappers_union** » Sun Mar 07, 2021 1:49 pm

WBA are infuriating

I've been listening on the radio, I really like Chris Iwelumo's intensity and the main guy who's commentating (Jordan something?). They don't half make it exciting to listen to.

claptrappers_union · Post by **claptrappers_union** » Sun Mar 07, 2021 1:51 pm

0-0, not an awful result for us

gandhisflipflop · Post by **gandhisflipflop** » Sun Mar 07, 2021 2:00 pm

There’s no way we are worse than those 2 sides. They were awful today both of them.

True. If I was that bad the last thing I’d want is draw attention to myself.

DAVETHEVICAR · Post by **DAVETHEVICAR** » Sun Mar 07, 2021 2:06 pm

Best result imho
2 points shared instead of 3 points

Conroysleftfoot · Post by **Conroysleftfoot** » Sun Mar 07, 2021 2:08 pm

The way both defences have started in the Liverpool Fulham game i can't see it ending 0-0

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Sun Mar 07, 2021 2:11 pm

I recall Joe Cole saying yesterday that there is no way Burnley are going down.

I tend to agree - injuries harmed us, particularly to Mee early on (though the fixtures were tough), other than that we are mid table and no worse than Wolves, Leeds, Palace etc.

I know we had one bad game against WBA but that match of theirs today just tells me the above is true. Fulham look miles better than either.

They must be bloody good if they made that match sound exciting!

CrosspoolClarets · Post by **CrosspoolClarets** » Sun Mar 07, 2021 2:14 pm

Comparing Phillips at Liverpool to Mee and Tarky would be too insulting to our guys, the gap is too large, but even somebody like Gibson seems far better than Phillips. I’m amazed they went for him given how many games he would have to play.

No way Fulham don’t score today.

Can't see Liverpool scoring in a month of Sunday's.

agreenwood · Post by **agreenwood** » Sun Mar 07, 2021 2:31 pm

Some of these Liverpool stand-ins are miles off the required standard.

It wouldn’t be a huge surprise if the gap between us and the bottom three is down to 4 points by 4pm.

As were Ibe, Solanke, Brewster and Wilson(loaned) but they keep getting big money for them.
