Squirrel 5,180 Posted July 18, 2020 Author Share Posted July 18, 2020 After last season’s disaster I was cautious about posting in this thread. No need for caution now. I can’t believe we’ve done it. Best manager in the world, best fans in the world, best team in the world. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Swansea can potentially steal the last playoff place from bitter rivals Cardiff tonight if they lose to Hull and we beat Reading. I would love it if we beat them! (in Kevin Keegan's voice). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 90+6 goal for Stoke at Forest means we steal the last spot off Forest on goal difference Hope we get Cardiff, shame it'd be without fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How on earth did Forest throw that away. I’m happy for Barnsley doing it at the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Championship playoff semi-final 1st leg tonight at home. On one hand I'd love us to win the playoffs again, but on the other I know we'll get annihilated in the PL as our broke hedgefund consortium owners won't get the chequebook out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatManDoza 3,473 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Final day of the prem aswell. Hopefully by 6pm, Wolves will have equalled or bettered spurs's result sending us into europe again, and Bournemouth win, villa lose and send the brummies down Quote 50% Cat 50% Man 110% Bellend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Villa will stay up, that win over Arsenal was vital. Could also argue Villa have the easiest game today out of all 3. Best of luck for Europe!

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Watford and Bournemouth join the already relegated Norwich. Looked likely. Watford go through too many mangers IMO, they had this coming. Think Bournemouth are capable of playing good stuff, but this season they seemed to sit back too much, they still concede a lot but don't score enough anymore. Playing 442 too, so always gonna have less possession being outnumbered in midfield, relies heavily on the forwards but Wilson has done nothing for them. 1-0 win for Swansea in the 1st leg. Missed a penalty and hit the post. Brentford red card. 2-0 and I would have been confident for the 2nd leg 😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatManDoza 3,473 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 That was the only plus of villa staying up, Watford going down. Not only do they go through managers like I go through a packet of bourbons, I bloody hate troy deeney 1 Quote 50% Cat 50% Man 110% Bellend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Cardiff 0 - 2 Fulham. Fulham played them off the pitch. The noisy lot up the road gonna need a miracle now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Not too disappointed in losing the semi-final, we're not cut out for the PL in our current state. Brentford and Fulham are much better suited. Would be nice to see Brentford win the final, very good side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've just signed him I've seen Roofe quite a bit, scores goals, just doesn't look like a striker for some reason, despite being decent in the air. Not sure if he was injured a lot this season or if Bielsa just preferred playing Bamford, who IMO is not as good. He should do well, good signing.

We sold him to Anderlect so he didn’t play for us this season. He spent most of the season injured there. Bamford has great hold up play but struggles to hit the target.

CatManDoza 3,473 Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Europa league quarter final for little old Wolverhampton. Cannot believe it 1 Quote 50% Cat 50% Man 110% Bellend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatManDoza 3,473 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 (edited) The european dream is over for this season. Sitting here reading wolves fans blaming VAR for encroachment on our penalty but they fail to notice the fact, we were sh*te and out plyaed from the penalty onwards. Massive gulf in class between the two teams, hoping we don;t lose too many platyers before next season starts!!!
