Good question for everyone. If there is only three points between Chelsea and Spurs.

And Spurs fail to get last CL spot. I think they are burnt out. Typical Spurs. Do they go into Europa League ?

Yes, 5th spot is Europa League

Ey? I mean it was saved by Dubravka but christ the quality of refereeing this season has been one of the worst in recent memory for me. Obviously they didn't score from it, we still lost and its a mute talking point but it shouldn't be. It should be remembered for the horrible decision and to add to the season overall rather than just a bad decision against us.

I quite like Dummet, he's under rated imo and can actually defend which is a rare quality in full backs these days

He's been good enough for what we've needed. He didn't have much of a choice with the club inexplicably ridding themselves of fullbacks on the left. Santon was was booted for no solid reason and Haidara had a mixture of injuries. No proper replacement was ever drafted in.

Unsure what the future holds for him though. All depends on what money Newcastle hold come the window.

Going to be interesting tonight.

I see Swansea are already up to dirty tricks ( remember the ballboy incident vs Chelsea)
Our hotel cancelled and had to stay 41 miles away
Ploice escort cancelled mysteriously so had to battle through rush hour traffic
Arrived at ground to be told "you have to sit on the team coach for 25 minutes while the Swansea coach disembarks"

:rolleyes:

Good luck for tonight, only room for one ‘foreign’ team in the ENGLISH premier league.:D

Found this interesting if not altogether surprising.

Question, why will the champions of the Czech Republic's top division be cheering for Liverpool in the Champions League Final? ;)

Something to do with the officials? or a ex Liverpool player?.

Nope.:)

A clue, Liverpool need to finish in the top four.;)

One of limited brain cells does find it very hard Jim.;)

Apparently if Liverpool finish in the top four AND win the Champions League an English side would not get a fifth Champions League place, it would go instead to the winners of the Czech top division.
