GW19 - Deadline Sunday 26th 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.

As it's festive match time, let's take a look at some of the tat that PL clubs are selling this season.
Cheers.

'Best' laid plans all awry again... this is how it panned out. With some excitement, in parts!

Liverpool 12:30 Leeds POSTPONED
Wolves 12:30 Watford POSTPONED
Burnley 15:00 Everton POSTPONED

Man City 6-3 Leicester Not a bad guess. There was a time at 4-3 when Leicester looked very lively but it was not to be. Great listening in the car though.
Norwich 0-5 Arsenal This was not good listening. Norwich just can't score. Or much. Ramsdale did make 2 saves...
Spurs 3-0 Crystal Palace :D Moura, Son, Kane. Our Goaly Trinity.
West Ham 2-3 Southampton Was quite exciting. Would have been a good one to watch.
Aston Villa 1-3 Chelsea Lukaku back! Didn't see much of this but it was good fun.
Brighton 2-0 Brentford They did win! Thrills and spills, with the moment of the match being Cucurella's hair's goaline clearance. I cheered!
Newcastle 1-1 Man Utd I was right here too, but wasn't expecting a draw. Fire and passion back in the Toon - they'd have taken this before the game but disappointed after. Man U have some right whingers.

Onto the tables and scores - IGM not doing well. :eek: :oops:

The Yellow Jersey stays with Dead Men Walking, but I glittered it for Christmas so it's probably a bit itchy.
Image

The Big Shout Out goes to someone different! Friday I'm In Goal scored a massive 70 under the circs - jolly well played!
Image

Over in the H2H IGM are still in a festive dip but 2nd overall

Image

The Christmas Crown is not going anywhere - Dead Men Walking is gonna win the entire season by himself!
Image

We're now in the middle of GW20 which has holes in it too.

Keep it safe, everyone.
