Until we thump West Brom next week, that is. But he never explained why Dacoure was allowed to run 30 yards to push Wilf and not get a 2nd yellow! Oh I forgot he went away for a few days, presumably no internet available.

I have been an avid supporter since the 60s. Why am I a "Hypocrite" for showing unalloyed delight that my beloved team have avoided the dreaded drop after fighting a tense relegation battle throughout the season, a battle I thought we would lose. I am experiencing great joy and of course a real sense of relief.

Please please please Willo let us all enjoy the great day and safety without you hijacking another thread with same same same old rubbish. Can someone actually start a WILLO THREAD and he can play there with anyone else who want to swap drivel all season. Just the rest of us actually focus on thread topics without them turning into the same Willo debates. It’s been all season - and season after season too While I respect Willos additions - how bout just give him his own thread.

Looking at the Stoke team....I thought the young lad Sobhi looked very good. I don’t really know a lot about him, but was very impressed with his speed and very good control of the ball. One for the palace?

I don't understand why Stoke thought they could sit on a 1-0 lead when they've shipped the most goals, have the worst GD and have lost the most points after taking a lead. Did they think Palace, a team whose strengths are pace and power were going to roll over for them? Stoke deserved what they got as Palace rightly punished them for their meekness in the second half. It was a fine performance and for once Palace got the result they richly deserved.
Divorced...And LOVING it! |

I think it was a blessing in disguise that Stoke scored when they did. We were going through the motions for a 0-0. Their goal woke us up and we steamrolled them in the 2nd half. They had no answer to our pace and power.

The way Leicester are playing with Tottenham and Arsenal to come, even ninth place isn't impossible

Article from Phil McNulty on BBC comparing us and Stoke's seasons :
“ [T]here are known knowns; there are things we know that we know.There are known unknowns; that is to say there are things that, we now know we don't know.But there are also unknown unknowns – there are things we do not know we don't know. ” |

The Stoke Manager was a hysterical pain. That Stoke fell apart in disorder later on was due to him dancing around like a demented baboon, what an example. Tactics, formation, they have quality but where was the organisation the method. Contrast with RH preperation and methods, identified the weakness on the Stoke left flank and expoited it by Zaha and PVA. IMO Hughes will keep Saints up (just), his replacement at Stoke should get the order of the boot or it could be another Sunderland.
