Loads of football… premier league looks like this…
Watford V Crystal Palace 12:30 kick off
Arsenal V west Bromwich Albion
Burnley V Middlesbrough
Chelsea V Bournemouth
Leicester City V Everton
Manchester United V Sunderland
Swansea City V West Ham United
Hull City V Manchester City
Leeds play Preston. Other things are happening.
Story of the day is big Sam at palace… and Moyes back at man Utd.
I’ll be at Deepdale for Preston v Leeds, should be a good game: both teams in decent form, nearly a full house, belly full of leftovers. We’re looking like a decent team but we have a tendency to bottle it whenever we get a big crowd on, and we don’t have the best of records against Leeds at home.
Me and the old man are going for the full prawn sandwich brigade experience at the Molineux this afternoon. That should nicely gloss over any of the on-pitch disappointment. I’m looking forward to returning to my seat about 10 minutes into the 2nd half - that’s customary isn’t it?
Mind you, they’re just as shit as we are so there’s potential for a decent game (or 90 minutes of complete dross).
Swansea v W Ham and Burnley v Boro probably the pick of the Prem games. Otherwise it looks almost certainly like routine wins for the faceless oilballers against the plucky underdogs (and Bornemouth).
I’m hoping to slope off to the Racecourse later, but depends on family stuff. May be beater to miss it tbh given Wrexham’s recent form.
Not really an appealing game of the lot, but it’s nice to stay in all day and half watch football and laze about some more. Hope there’s a Leeds stream but I doubt it with all the other 3pms.
Fixtures have been staggered especially weirdly/unfairly this year.
Please feel free to exchange the phrase ‘Prawn Sandwich’ for any other foodstuff favoured by Xmas football fans, especially if it references Xmas leftovers.
I tend to use Liqueur Chocolate Brigade as my nickname of choice for these people.
