    No risk of attack by wild animals, altitude sickness or deadly earthquakes for pampered wealthy footballers.

    Muff & WFC are level on points, with the former 2 goals better on GD.

    The Sage of Preston (aka Lawro, aka some of the worst names used in the football fan's lexicon) summarises their seasons thus:

    Burnley v Bournemouth

    Both of these teams have had good seasons.

    Man Utd v Watford

    it has been a difficult campaign for Watford


    Lackwit!

    That's because he sees us as an under-performing top 6 team.

    It's those two extra goals that makes all the difference. Had we scored a couple more, or conceded a couple less then we would have had a good season too.

    Scene's if we actually score an away goal! We won't get a better chance to beat them at their place since the night Iggy forgot how to score or pass. least we can go safe in the knowledge we are safe. Gomes to get his 100th appearance for us would be a nice touch. Pretty sure most of the teams are now thinking about their holidays with pretty everything sorted. A win and results go our way and we could finish top 10. That would be nice, but unlikely knowing us.

    Are you saying that footballers easily cave in to pier pressure?

    According to his predictions, we're 2nd bottom, relegated. So we should be having a great season according to him.

    His table has City on 99, United on 97, Spurs 97... Southampton 10th, Brom 12th. Liverpool unbeaten of course.

    I've little doubt that a potato could do a better job than him.

    And he gives Everton 35 points.

    25 points being the safe position in the Lawro league

    Given the difference in prize money that is quite important to a club like Watford, I think it would be a nail in Gracia's coffin if he did that.

    Also both have a plethora of fat lasses who'll let you buy them chips and then shag then in an alley whilst they scoff them.

    Is that physically possible? Or does it require multiple participants?

    You read Viz?, or this is personal experience?
    But in that esteemed publication the lasses are more correctly known as s.lags.
    Ah the joys of the north east, where the chips are also cheap.

    More ‘correctly’ known?

    That’s a bit of sweeping generalisation don’t you think?

    Also begs the question, who is Gracia going to play? Ndong? An academy player? Or no defensive midfielder at all?

    I have been to both these places on more than one occasion and I am not aware of this.
    Maybe I turn in too early perhaps.

    There's always the possibility that Man U's reserves might turn out to be quite good players - and better motivated than the regulars.
    I still think we may well win this.

    I’m very much looking forward to our first ever league victory at Old Trafford.

    Odds of 15-2 to win. Easy money.
