    I’d take that. Portsmouth will go out celebrating their promotion, take their eye off the ball in their next game and lose it. And then we’d go into the last game with a snifter of a chance of being the champions. Maybe that pressure in the last day would get to Portsmouth and they’d lose again.
    if they lose this one, they’ll go all out in the next game to secure promotion. No taking their eye off the ball. And it’ll be all over by the last day. I like a last day with something riding on it.
    imagine what a weird bittersweet feeling of being promoted but not winning the league on the last day of the season, by virtue of two defeats, having led the league until that last day.

    If carlsberg did season ends.
    southampton beat Leicester and Leeds to sneak into the top two at their expense. Coventry or someone win the play offs. Leicester and Leeds both get smashed with massive points deductions. 
    meanwhile, Forest scrape into 17th by a point, but loose there appeal and have 2pts taken off for a spurious appeal. And get smashed with more points deductions next season for good measure. Forest, Leeds and Leicester as good as down already, might as well call off the relegation (only problem is that boro can’t go with them).
    oo, boro have a terrible last few games of the season and go down from the championship with Rotherham and Birmingham. 
    we of course win all of our last three games, while Portsmouth loose all theirs, and we go up as champions. Ready for a back to back push riding the waves of positivity.

    You made me have a look. It’s stark the difference between the top 6 goals scored and all the rest. The top two are the lowest scorers in the top 6, strangely. But even pompey, the lowest scorers, are 9 goals better off than the next highest outside the top 6. Posh are 17 goals clear!
    and those next highest scorers are reading and Charlton right down in the bottom half, which is a bit weird. 
    as much as we all like free flowing, high scoring football, I think the evidence shows time and time again that it’s the teams with the best defences that win things.

    Trying to figure out why her gender is relevant here, that is the box you are referring as being ticked?
    You are aware that all other referees are male and have been making bad decisions week in week out since the dawn of the game, yet their gender is never relevant in the aftermath. 
    It's those poor decisions which has led to the introduction of VAR, which again has made some terrible decisions even with all this technology by a bunch of men sat in a room together.
    I haven't seen what happened yesterday, assuming you are correct and it was a ludicrous decision, it won't be her first nor her last, likewise with every referee in the game.
    If your first thought however is to come here and moan about a woman making one bad decision out of how many correct decisions over a 90 minute game of football, does come across as a bit Joey Barton like.

    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Man United are so crap!!
    im glad Newcastle have caught them. They e been in a false position for ages with people wondering if they can catch Tottenham and villa. No! Of course they f****** can’t. They’re crap. 
    even the incredibly crap Chelsea could over take them if they win their games in hand. And West Ham are only one win away from overtaking them.
    they won’t even have Europa league next season at this rate, and they don’t deserve it. The points they have got have been very lucky, they should be down in the bottom half somewhere. Which is shocking for a Man Utd team. 
    I don’t know why I care so much. I don’t like Man Utd at all, but it’s just shocking to see how the mighty have fallen so far. It’s strange to see such a top 4 mainstay from my youth reduced to such mediocrity.
    i honestly think there’s some thing psychological there about me feeling that society peaked in the 90s and this is making me realise more and more that Those days are long gone.

    I think that it's safe to say that the EFL, Middlesbrough and Wycombe all took advantage of Derby's delicate position. If we'd had a strong owner in place, they would have all been sent packing.

    I think this underestimates AI and how it will advance. Soon it will be able to bring up children here, so in decades/centuries it would be far more capable of doing this for a new space colony. If Human and machine minds work together, we'll be able to start spreading across the Galaxy (and beyond according to some work).
    [And, on one weird evening, a very friendly Anne Hathaway pulled me out of the audience in her one-woman New York Theatre play (she was playing a remote drone pilot in the USAF) and we had simulated sex before she went on to be pregnant and then had our baby! Very happy to oblige 😂😂 Maybe there'll always be a friendly Anne Hathaway to bring up children?]

    I’m just thinking if you don’t have a friendly Anne Hathaway because there is no option other than to send the space ship on a red dwarf style journey spanning thousands of years (unless you had like one generational family of in bred caretakers on the ship), then you’d need to work out a way of automatically raising embryos into a civilisation of children, without it descending into lord of the flies. That’s going to be a pretty shitty childhood at best. And with absolutely no way for us sending the ship to know how it would turn out. Seems like it would be theoretically possible, but it all seems a bit unethical. Stupid ethics getting in the way of a good bit of science. If nothing else I’ve come up with the plot of a decent sci fi book. If anyone needs me, I’ll be in my study.

    Florest to lose the next two; away at Everton and home to Man City while Luton beat Brentford at home and Wolves away to go 6 points clear of the trees with 3 games left. I really think it's possible. 🤞
