GW11 Deadline Saturday 5th December 11 AM

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Ello Ello! Tis the season to be jolly back on the terraces. Good to hear some real crowd noise on telly last night. V well spaced out so looked fairly safe. Sad to hear that Charlton got a lot of negative stuff from their fans - not really in the spirit, guys, come on. They did lose, but after all this you can't cheer your team on regardless, for the first game back?

Anyway. Stevie boy has his review, round up, considered opinions and marks out of 10 over on the Shed's noticeboard. Still winning!

New GW - the Villa/Newcastle game is postponed due to positive tests.

Thoughts very much with Raul Jiminez, who is expected to leave hospital next week after surgery on his fractured skull.

I thought the fans weren't allowed to sing & cheer.
Or did the Daily Heil just make that up too?

Can't believe I didn't see a Citeh 5-0 win against Burnley.... For a 4th consecutive season. In my predictor league I only had it at 4-0.
Bit surprised Palace aren't all lurgied up after playing Newcastle last weekend.
Looks like tomorrow's games are all going to be illicit streams for me which means relentless pop ups from attractive young ladies who all apparently live 2km from me & also all appear to have their heating turned up to full.
Last week one of them only lived 100m from me apparently.
Don't these people know there's a pandemic on?
Cheers.

I don't have zoom. Not even the Fat Larry record.
I think they're all the same person though.
& a bit further away than 2km
Cheers.

Zaha did a lot of finishing too!
It went very well for some of us. Spurs still top of the League, Arsenal about to move to Europe where they do better, Blades sunk by that Vardy, and Wolves given a bit of a hammering. Manc Reds all over the place and totally unpredictable. VAR still a complete arsebiscuit.
Finally teams make a stand in Paris and walk off the pitch. No one can umm and ahhh about doing that now.
And RIP Paolo Rossi, one of the Azzuri's most accomplished and most loved.

IGM are still top, after a slender win in the Classic:
Image

With the Yellow Jersey on our own The Clash Athletic! Woooo!

Image

The Big Shout Out is also going to IGM's I Werner Break Free with 84

Image

Over in the H2H, IGM lost the week with the other two teams on equal points, but still winning overall.

Image

And the Crown is still on Steve's head (dammit, Pista) but we're not talking about that.

Off you all pop to the Shed for GW12, where we've got mulled gin and NO CHRISTMAS MUSIC. A haven of darkened room.

GW13 STARTS NEXT TUESDAY. YES, NEXT WEEK ON TUESDAY. WE ONLY HAVE ONE DAY OFF BETWEEN GWs.
