Got a good feeling about the Ipswich game. Going to turn a corner after that
We’re getting massacred by Liverpool, 100%.
Sounds like a planWant me to stick a fiver on Liverpool? I put £5 on you boys to turn over City and look how that turned out.
Yep, it’s not exactly a free pass, but losing tomorrow night won’t be quite as painful as it might have been. As long as we don’t ship too many and damage our GD too badly.Watched the first half of the Chelsea game. Far too good for Southampton without actually being particularly good. Newcastle only dropping one place in the table with the connotations of all these midweek games is very pleasing.
Yeah agree. We could have done with Chelsea losing but that wasn't realistic. Tonight’s results coupled with a lucky point tomorrow would absolutely feel like a victory to me!Yep, it’s not exactly a free pass, but losing tomorrow night won’t be quite as painful as it might have been.

I think the odds on all these scenarios are equal - zero. There must be a ton of money going on City.Yea, the odds are that short because there's a possibility that they'll be found guilty of their charges and the points deduction could see them relegated. I guess the possibility (albeit almost non existent) of a Arsenal or Liverpool doing something that results in a points deduction this season is why you can still bet on them to go down too, even though they're mathematically safe.
I think the likelihood of City being found guilty is a lot less than some people believe however it's quite clearly not zero. I think we all know that City are guilty of what is claimed and there appears to be (to the average person on the street) clear evidence to support that*. In fact I think City's actions over the last two summers (making huge profits on transfers from an accounting point of view) showed that even City were planning for the worst. Yes there will be a lot of people taking a punt but I'm sure the bookies have baked into their prices the risk of City being found guilty too.I think the odds on all these scenarios are equal - zero.
