Houdini

Scott Parker has left his position as manager of Burnley with immediate effect. Maybe there's hope of having a break from Burnley in the league for a few years at least? 🤷

One of the most entertaining matches I've ever watched! I was exhausted by the end lol. The defence on both teams was non-existent, it felt like all 10 outfield players on both teams were relentlessly going forward trying to create goal-scoring opportunities. I can imagine the 2nd leg next week will be similar but PSG might regret nearly squandering the 5-2 lead they had at one point only for Bayern to get the score to 5-4.

PSG Vs Bayern right now is just Attack Attack Attack lol. The type of football you'd play as a child with your friends.

I think Haiti, Curacao and Iraq will all be knocked out at the group stage with 3 defeats from 3. Just to score a goal will be a nice achievement, a bit like how Panama celebrated scoring against England at the 2018 World Cup even though they were being thrashed at that moment in the game.

Yeah congratulations to Coventry! It will be refreshing to see them in the Premier League, I remember them being there in the late 90's and early 2000's and didn't think it would take them so long to return. If they can provide Man Utd with 6 points next season though as a goodwill gesture it would be much appreciated 😂

2025/26: We are going down, say we are going down At this point Burnley should probably just be blacklisted from the league!

Leicester have been relegated to League One. 10 years on from winning the Premier League it's a 2nd consecutive relegation for them. When you look at their squad you can see players who have multiple years of top flight experience so it's mad that they've gotten themselves into this situation.

Too many adverts again on night 2 and too many short matches but glad that Oba Femi won against Brock, looks like he will be heading to the very top over the coming months which is nice to see for a younger wrestler. The ladder match was my favourite and had some nice spots in it. A lot of people are saying Roman Vs Punk was 5 star or a match of the year contender, I don't know about that personally but it had good psychology for the stories that have been told in their feud leading up to Mania. Jacob Fatu looking likely to be Roman's first challenger for the belt after last night's episode of Raw and that could be a decent feud.

^ Ipswich finished 5th in the 2000/01 season after they were promoted the previous season But yeah Wolves were so strong when they got promoted and they were consistently finishing in/challenging for European positions. It shows how far the standards have dropped in recent years. Going to their stadium was always a hard away fixture in the early days as well. They'll have to hope they don't go the same way as Luton and Leicester.

Wolves relegation officially confirmed now. Anyone going to miss them in the Premier League?

Yeah the adverts were crazy, so many of them specifically focusing on Hulk Hogan's documentary as well. Overall it wasn't a very enjoyable night and the finish of Randy Vs Cody did not make any sense whatsoever. I'm expecting tonight to be a lot better though and Oba Femi Vs Brock Lesnar is my most anticipated match, the ladder match for the Intercontinental title should be fun as well.

It's looking increasingly like the Premier League is not going to be big enough for the both of Coventry City and Tottenham.

Bournemouth and Crystal Palace in similar predicaments going into the end of the season. It feels like Iraola has carried Bournemouth to where they've gotten to and without him they will be much worse off.

I laughed when I saw this yesterday. Whatever happens by the end of the season this will go down as an iconic and historic moment in Premier League history. It's either something that will sum up Arsenal's league season in a nutshell or it will be something that Arsenal fans will use to mock this guy and the Man City fanbase for years to come.

We'll see what happens but only a few weeks ago people were talking seriously about Arsenal winning the quadruple so if they fail to win the Premier League there's a strong chance that they will end the season trophyless after being in 4 different competitions for so long and the bookmakers making Arsenal favourites for all of them as well. If that happens it will be one of the biggest collapses of all time for an end of season. Personally I can't see them winning the Champions League at all this season so it rests mainly on the league. The match between them and Man City next week will be huge from a psychological level.

Thanks Mack for hosting this sweepstake and congratulations Dobbo for winning!
