Getting to the business end of the season...Hows everyone's teams doing?
Leeds are doing their best to fuck it up again...We're destined to be the Championship cash cow for evermore

The wheels have fallen off the Motherwell bus. After a brilliant first half of the season we've been shite since the winter break. Incredible cup exit on Tuesday too. 4-1 down at half time to fucking St Mirren the manager pretty much hooked the entire defence and went 4 up front to peg it back to 4-4 at full time only to go out on penalties ðŸ˜

I'm not majorly into soccerball but since Bournemouth got promoted to the top division I've followed them a bit. They used to score a lot of goals and let slightly fewer in, so managed to stay up. Usually start well, a mid season dip in form then recovery at the end to escape demotion. This year they have been a bit crap, not scored many but still let a load in. Injuries have played a part. They looked a shoe-in for demotion until they won a couple in a row. Now it looks like they are going to lose another. It could be quite tight between 4 at the bottom.

Excellent analysis Phil. Tinged with honesty throughout and devoid of bullshit.

Brighton hanging on. Our run in at home is a shocker. None of the fans attempt to guess the starting 11 any more as its so fucking random.
Leeds are coming up this time but will have to say cheerio to their on loan CB.

Hibs have had a season of two half’s. Started shite, persisted with Paul Heckingbottom as manager till we hovered around the bottom three and then sacked him shortly after his name was changed to Paul Secondbottom. Former Sunderland boss Jack Ross got the gig and things have improved substantially. Top six now and looking decent after the transfer window. On a happier note our Edinburgh rivals Hearts are bottom of the league and looking doomed. Oh dear, how fucking sad.

The ‘Toon are doing their usual stuff near the bottom....lower mid-table mediocrity!
What about Sheffield Utd though?...they have to be the surprise Team of the season.

Some turnaround for Hibs and you could end up 3rd if Motherwell and Aberdeen keep stuttering. Astonishing considering where you were a couple of months ago. Hearts look doomed though. Schadenfreud aside, you will lose your derbies if they go down.

They are such a fuck up of a club and Stendel is a total clown. Motherwell were riding high until they sold James Scott. Can’t blame them for taking the dough though. 1.5m if i remember correctly. I’ve always liked your team Noodle. Can never forget the 6 all draw. What a game that was.

Sheffield Utd and Wolves have been a revelation in the premier league this season. Best form of defence is attack. Their fans make some racket too. If i was to choose a team to go down it would be West Ham. Imagine the atmosphere in the Olympic stadium playing the likes of Brentford. Hee hee. Hope I’ve not any hammerites here.

Yeah a customer of mine who supports Brighton said as much...But what happens if we go up and you come down? I admit he's premiership quality

They deserve to go down...They're fucking awful to watch, their Manager is fucking useless and their fans think they have some god given right to be top six and playing 'total football'. Norwich play better than West Ham...At least they have a go

You can have him on loan again. Have you seen our remaining home fixtures? Our GD is gonna take a pounding. I hope we meet in the top flight next season.
