Great win today from us against Spurs we had control of the game from start to finish and that is what we want from Arsenal in every game.
Good luck today lads with your teams.

Congrats on the win bud.

Yep, terrific win for the Arsenal today. Palace and Everton play out a Desmond which does neither side any good. Still, at least Woy will be a good choice to try and bring us back up again.

Well done mate. That was a very convincing win today. You made Spurs look second rate.

Share of the spoils for Palace and Everton. I had them for a draw on my coupon.

Chelsea West Brom wasn’t as expected sorry Ocean.

As for us, we played decent at times. The goalkeeping was comedy gold from both teams however. Really cringeworthy stuff. Hopefully Coleman can get off to a winning start against Villa on Tuesday.

Saw those goals earlier Steed, some proper howlers there. Another Desmond for you as well.

Thanks Steedeel i saw the highlights of the Sunderland v Millwall match today if it wasn't for those awful mistakes by the keeper you could have got that win today.

Oh they were bad alright. It was like a competition for the worst keeper. Problem is, our stand in keeper is worse!

It was a much better second half Tob. Villa will be tough in midweek away from home.

Having seen the Palace goals I don't feel much better, the first against us was a blatant con job for the penalty and the second was the defence committing hari-kari. When it rains it pours, I hope the worst case scenario from this is that we get to play each other in the league next season. Palace are gone but I really hope you guys don't drop any further.

I’m going to put my neck on theline and say we will survive. I feel a bit better about things now. We need a hck of a lot of points but that’s my prediction Geoff.

Thanks man.

We suck tob, in all facets of the game. That's what I think.

The only saving grace is that so are a lot of other clubs, so we just may stay afloat in the big leagues this season. We need to clean house though. It's time to unload a lot of our veterans and start a youth movement. It would be nice to find a permanent manager as well, but people aren't exactly lining up for this job. So we'll see what happens in that regard.

I was flicking through the channels on the TV and I had seen Chris Coleman's press conference as the new Sunderland Manager on the news. I suppose he will become a perfect fit for the club as he had a lot of recent fortune while being manager of Wales during last years Euros in France. Only time will tell if he will be the person really able to reverse the club's misfortune over the years. I will wish him good success in his role for the future.

He has proven that he has a huge set of balls taking this job on, that much I do know. Get it right and it’s a fantastic club but we can’t take much more crap so he needs to hit th ground running. It is the best appointment we could have hoped for under the circumstances. First job, get rid of our keepers!

[Geoff D]

Right, so Niasse gets a two-game ban for a blatant dive but what happens to the two points that Palace were conned out of? If we were to miss out on staying up by that margin, how does that help us? **** off.

[Steedeel]

We are playing Burton at the weekend in a massive six pointer. There, I said it. That is all.

[Steedeel]

Chris Coleman’s Red and White Army!

And..........Palace won!

Party at mine Geoff.

[Geoff D]

Palace and Sunderland win! Palace and Sunderland win!

[Steedeel]

Fantastic roar for Coleman when he acknowledged the fans at end, great to see

Good luck with rest of games lads.
