The Round Ball Game - II

[teamsaint]

Bloody Norah! Tomorrow is huge!!!

But why Sunday? It’s so continental. In Britain football takes place at 3.00pm when Saturday comes.

Quite. This moving around of fixtures has unpleasant Undertones.

I thought The Seagulls & The Toon's promotions were all handed out?

Those are, yes, but much is undecided - especially in the Premiership - and this season seems to be peculiarly long.

We'll have to wait until Thursday before safely declaring we will largely know where we all are on Wednesday Week.

Weird that Man Utd with all their money had only 16 players (the minimum) available but then I never understood why Mr Wenger had just one striker for three seasons.

Elsewhere, fascinating shenanigans at Leyton Orient FC where the game only just went ahead - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39676226.

Some York fans are pinning their hopes on staying up if the Os are folded. It would mean one less club dropping down into the National League.

But the London club have now paid the HMRC if not everyone so it seems unlikely although what occurred on the pitch will not have helped them.

Yep BBM they are both promoted but either side can still win the title.

Watford 0 Liverpool 1 Stunning winner in 1st half added time,top 4 finish in their own hands with 3 games left.

Bit of advanced warning if you're looking in ts,I am on holiday for a week from 8th May,would be appreciated if you could take care of business to save me having to get off my sun bed.
Will just be Premier League,Europa and some play offs I think,everything else will be done and dusted by this weekend.
