We have a habit of breaking team bad runs so I think Saturday could be very interesting - not for either of us since we have too much invested in the result but for the neutrals.
Iām another neutral who is cheering on Luāon. Those looming points deductions might well save your bacon.

More success for English clubs in Europe tonight West Ham and Liverpool both go through in the Europa League whilst Aston Villa go through in the Europa Conference unfortunately for the Super Seagulls nobody explained to De Zerbi the concept of two legged ties.
Deep joy, Bob. Now the greedy bar stewards in the āEnglishā PL get to stomp all over the euro tournaments as well.
After that majestic performance, The Tartan Diego Simeoneās Massive Euro Cup Winning Cockney Bastards are now ā with the their THIRD CONSECUTIVE European quarter-final ā official European footballing royalty.

Lots of happy hammers on the train home last night - I can see why. Good to see Cressy back and scoring too.

Yes, itās a great memory to have of seeing it live.
I was at Carrow Road the day in 1980 Justin Fashanu scored one of the most famous goals ever, against Liverpool.
This was the best game I have ever seen live & MOTD that evening devoted their whole program to that one game for the entire hour, with Jimmy Hill saying that they would have broadcast the entire 90 minutes if they had been allowed to.
Being Norwich I must add the caveat that we lost 3-5ā¦

I do remember that goal, it was a stunner.

It was fate I suppose that Timber now playing for Bayern would meet The Arsenal in the Champions League. I just wanted to avoid Real, Athletico Madrid and the cheats and preferred Barca, Dortmund or Bayern Munich.
I watched both in person and on TV Bayern hammer us 5-1 home and away in our last (before Porto) CL knockout match that was though a very, very different Bayern side.
And if we beat them we have either the cheats or Real in the semi.
Watching Abu Dhabi v Saudi in their local Derby. Tomorrow itās the turn of the USA in both the FA cup and at Elland Road. Does it matter, opinions will vary?
Now children, gather round.
Now, if we all sit on the floor, cross our fingers, close our eyes really really tight and make a wish, do you know what will happen ?
Tonightās match will never have happened.
Ready ? All together.

Shocking tonight. Credit to Fulham - they played very well, but we were abysmal. The players and, I must admit, our coach too.
No excuses.
After making a statement with a 4-0 win away at Villa last week, Iām afraid the statement got lost in translation today.
Ohā¦ what itās like being a Spurs fan. I mean lookā¦ and Iām only 23.

But thatās what I look like and Iām a Forest fan!
We canāt score and when weāre in the lead we make stupid substitutions that allow the opposition to attack while we sit back and fail to defend our lead. Relegation beckons.

Hi Andrew, I have to agree, the substitutions took the balance out of Forest. Very strange, the game isnāt & wasnāt over at that point. Woods would have been better left on as a threat up front in my view and taking Gibbs-White off as well?!. Anyway that helped us and luckily & finally we found a way through a very dogged Forest defence. I beg to differ on the fact that relegation beckons; I think that you have too much quality - ok, it is not clicking all the time and even with any possible points deduction it will come down to the run in. We have Arsenal, Spurs & City away all in just over a week in a few weeks time and I donāt expect us to get anything from these games so that is 9 points that we will be dropping. I am not sure what your run is like but beat that!
Our run in is perhaps not as challenging as yours but we do play away at Spurs and Man City in April so theyāll not be easy! The others are more of a mixed bag, anything could happen. Your team has an admirable tenacity, managing to score more goals in the last 15 minutes of matches than any other team in the Premier League if I am not mistaken. I think we have conceded more from set pieces than any other team! Who knows what will happen!??
Indeed, nothing is written in stone & we will continue to give it a go until the very end. I need to check on the dates for the Arsenal & City fixtures to see if they are around the time of the European games - hoping they might be distracted.
You play us the week before Champions League quarter finals and a couple of days after we go up to the Emptyhead but unfortunately because I think it benefits the Premier League to have teams like Luton in it I donāt think we will be letting up every game is a must win.
I for one will be cheering you on for the rst of the season accept against us which Iāve actually got tickets for.
