A few decent games and tough ones to call.
Wolves 1-0 Liverpool.
Arsenal 2-0 Burnley
Bournemouth 2-1 Brighton
Chelsea 2-0 Leicester
Huddersfield 0-0 Southampton
Man City 4-0 Crystal Palace
Newcastle 2-0 Fulham
West Ham 2-2 Watford
Cardiff 0-1 Man Utd
Everton 1-1 Tottenham
You’ll be rich on Monday.
If I must, I would tweak the scores as follows:
Wolves 1-4 Liverpool. (How I hope not)
Chelsea 3-0 Leicester
Hammers 3-1 Watford
Everton 1-2 ‘Spurs
West Ham are playing consistently well in a most un-Hammerslike fashion

Lennon surprisingly accurate in his post match comments.
Probably feart that he might get barged by Stevie again.

Tedious.
Wonder why Hibs fans haven’t turned out to see their team.

Bearger’s map at #12 shows the narrow footbridge at the approaches to the ground. Walked over it many times to a match and never knew it was called Crawford Bridge. Typical toff Embra name for what would just be a bridge anywhere else.
There used to be an old guy with longish white hair in the 1950s who stood there on matchdays singing the songs of the day mostly Kenneth Mackellar stuff with a wee dash of Crosby. Trained voice but fallen on hard times.
I doubt anyone remembers. Compo mibbees.
EDIT. For the avoidance of doubt I meant the perhaps Compo remembers, not that Compo was the singer.

Very good, 26th. Pity any PQ peckers looking in won’t understand a word.

Shankland signing for Swansea according to FF.

Who will become Rogers’ assistant at Old Trafford?
Giggs, Ancelotti, Zidane, the chap in charge of Croatia?
It won’t happen but I’d go for Manuel Pellegrini.

I can remember when the old centre forwards would have twentysomething goals by Christmas and no clubs would bat an eyelid now someone scores a dozen and all are interested I wonder what it would be like if there where still scorers like Forrest, McGraw or McBride still in their pomp .
Even better, Willie Thornton, Lawrie Reilly and Willie Bauld.

Arsenal have a horrendous record at Southampton.
Im tipping Wolves to beat Liverpool on friday.
I hope you’re right, more in a pro-Wolves than an anti-Liverpool way. I’d fancy them more at Anfield than Molineux.

Hearts in a challenging fourth position in the League. A good season for the maroons.
The trouble for them is that they used to be top and their current goal difference is -1.

A brace, as journos say, for a chap Hardie. Should we sign him?

Interesting matches this week for a change.
Everton will score against City but not often enough.
Leicester will not lose at Palace.
Newcastle won’t score at Town.
’Spurs will beat Burnley more comfortably than 2-0.
Watford v Cardiff? I don’t do Football League Division Three (South)
Wolves will maul the softie south coast sand castle builders.
Fulham v WestHam would normally be a draw but Fulham are very poor and the Hammers are flying. It all points to Hammers going back down the Thames with no points.
Brighton may score but Chelsea will get more than two.
So’ton might halt Arsenal’s wobbly resurgence but most likely won’t.
Surely, at long last, Liverpool will trounce United. It’s got to be now hasn’t it? On that basis expect at least one point to go back along the East Lancs road.
This result forecasting is easy, Gribz. You do the hard work and I invent a load of nonsense.

Doubt if it’s true but if there’s a profit of £M1 to be had, sell him.

And there was me thinking that, like Gonzo probably, they would have spent the evening at the Staatsoper with perhaps a visit to the Hofburg this morning.

Before your time, dB, but on your definition of a 10, the exemplar is Ralph Brand. He had his 82nd birthday the other day so I suppose it would be asking too much to bring him back.

Correct in every respect but particularly with regard to Conservative and Labour MSPs.

Plus for Inter now is that they may get to play at Ibrox in the Spring.
I was lucky to see Fachetti do that very thing.
Wasn’t good enough, though. 1-0.

Ian Rush thinks Liverpool would have a better chance of the league title if they were to miss the Europa League. Dean Saunders couldn’t go as far as that but he reported that playing on a Sunday after a trip abroad, the team could never play as well as normal especially in the first half. According to him Liverpool tried all sorts of changes to training and travel but nothing worked.

As gambles go, you could do a lot worse.

The thing about Vienna is you might get to the stage where you say the hell with the football, I’m enjoying this too much..

See the state of Liverpool’s away strip? Child’s pyjamas. Award the match to Bournemouth 3-0.

City are starving Chelsea of the ball. It’s intricate but it’s not exciting. Perhaps the chasing around will exhaust Chelsea and City can scre a couple in the last twenty minutes.
And suddenly an old fashioned hoof up the wing leads to a goal.
Show Biz 1, Sheikhs’ XI 0.
Ends 2-0.

Also, Jimmy Millar's last game for Rangers.
Back to where he once belonged in the half line.

de Bruyne and Aguero are wonderful players for City but the vital cog in the machine is David Silva. Ian McMillan with an extra power pack.
