On the other hand - Bournemouth going down will make my day. And trust me, they will never come back to the Premier League.

they are not about banter, it is hate, it is hard to quantify, but it is always personal attacks, and bashing over ownership and wishing players get hurt (which is something I and no one here would EVER do)

and so often RW politics tossed in to, with racist slurs against London especially

I fucking hate them, and there are so many it is is a wave

I closed out all the chats I was in

I am not a good troll in them, I do not like to bait other teams nonstop, I only do crazy in person a few times in the past at games, or when someone goes full nazi

I do what I do here

I criticise players and tactics, if I am saying something negative, normally I do not say much, but even just watching it makes me sad, and when I try and defend us, I get just steamrollered by multiple ones

and not in a banter way, in a hateful way

that fucker in my political board had me almost in tears because i had so many posters I had known for 5,6,7,8 years all of sudden attacking me and chasing me around the board calling me a Russian troll (which is the ultimate kiss of death on that board) and then I had people saying they have been on so many juries out of the blue on many of my posts

he has been having a go at me again for 3 straight days, in DM's too, until I blocked him and reported it to the admins

the people there are far beyond (mot know zero about football) sports people, many are deep into politics and I find it to be a stimulating place for years, but now this manc cunt is trying to run me out , over footie, on a yank fucking politics board

he also hates me because I hate the Lib Dems and document all their Tory arse-licking for years

he is a huge neoliberal 'Blair is god' type and leads the charge against Labour now non stop, at every level

I really couldn't care less about it all, but he is winning in terms of getting me run out, and it all really kicked off over a throw-away, innocuous comment I made about the CL months ago (that outed me to him as a Chels girl)

he went fucking bonkers instantly, and now that Manure is running riot, he is all up in my face non stop (and always with political bent and tinge added to it)

Fuck them and the horse they rode in on, they are simply exposing their own weaknesses as human beings thats all. As we say in persian, just itch your left nut and give no fucks. Such people are not worthy of your time mate. Sadly many many places are like that, insecure little rats.

they are terrible. but they could as well win today and still go down please.

the whole team of theirs doesnt even know the offside rule. what a pathetic bunch. deserve relegation with every fibre.

[Vesper 29,194]

if Juve keep them all, next season they will eventually have 14 players 30yo and up

8 33yo and up

but I think they bin some 

[Atomiswave 6,072]

Fucking headless chickens BM they are, hey this is our own making, we cant keep relying on others.

Ake is gonna be cheap to buy if/when Bournemouth get relegated...

[Strike 7,298]

Want the ban upheld for City tomorrow. Can enjoy the rest of the season without pressure.

I fear I will die of a heart attack watching Chelsea defend a corner in the last minute and the ball goes towards Christensen, Azpi

He is clearly their best defender but that's nothing to be proud of. That's like being the least corrupted EPL ref.

The ban would serious lift the tension over 4th. 

But...

Leicester have Sheffield, Spurs and United left after this. I think we'll get the opportunity to go back above them before the final day game vs United. 

 

[Magic Lamps 11,677]

lol danjuma simply gave the ball straight to vardy. it is as if they were piad. brilliant defending by ake on that instant. injured himself in the process.

[Rapkun 668]

With Ake off, this is going to get ugly.

I thought is was only top 4 CL

5,6,7 EL

so it would be eighth

Pretty sure only one EL spot coming from the league.

Other 2 from domestic cups. But since City won Carabao cup 6th place takes it instead.

[Strike 7,298]

I think Frank will look to sign someone like Ndidi in place of Jorginho ^

[Laylabelle 9,406]

If didnt have Wolves and Liverpool be more confident..then again we lose to whoever so doesn't matter how hard or easy a team looks on paper

[Milan 17,878]

Bournemouth have been beyond pathetic, like seriously. Is this how you fight for a survival? Well then you can go straight to the beaches, that are very nice at your place. Pathetic.

Was not Eddie Howe wanted by some members on here, like him over Frank?

i am not even sure if we have ever looked as pathetic as bournemouth today. we at least tried some shots and stuff yesterday. bournemouth are an absolute excuse of aside. wish we could play them in that shape all year.

not yet

if they drop 2 of their 3 left

and we drop one, win 2 (or win all 3 or 2 wins and a draw)

we are 4th (assuming Manure wins out) as they would have 65 points and we would have 66, 67. or 69

if they draw one, and lose the other 2, then even one win and one draw by us is enough for 4th as they would have 63 points then and we would have 64

if they draw 2 and lose one, then they are on 64 so we would need two draws and a win or 2 wins (the third game for us is meaningless as long as we get 2 wins), as if we are tied on 64, they go through on GD

I REALLY like our chances to get 4th IF 2 things happen

we beat wolves

Leicester loses to SU or Tottenham

as then all we need to do to get to 66 is beat Norwich

and Leicester would need to both a win and a draw from the other two (or two wins)

if we had not blown that NUFC 94th minute draw (so one point dropped) I would REALLY like our chances then as we would be on 67 if we win two of the 3

and Leicester (if they lose to either Spuds or SU)  would have to WIN BOTH of the other 2 (and Manure looms for them)

and still too short and not good enough

if Ake as a starting CB is the level of our ambitions, we ARE the new Arse/Spuds
