Houdini

I don't think this is the case, people are more fearful of Manchester City becoming the first team to win the league 4 times in a row. This is the scenario that the general football fan would least like to see. Even now almost everyone says that Manchester City will win it. I even saw a headline on the weekend saying that it's their title to lose even though they're not currently top of the table.

MJF's historic AEW World Championship title reign is over and Adam Cole has been revealed as the person behind the devil mask! Samoa Joe is the new champion, I expect him to lose it to Swerve Strickland. I don't think he'll have it for long either, as for the devil reveal I always thought it was Adam Cole. The Kingdom, Roderick Strong and Wardlow are his back up.

Short lived celebrations of being top of the table at Christmas for Arsenal

I was pleased to see Rasmus getting his 1st Premier League goal yesterday and I hope this can be the first of many to come for him. It was good fighting sprit that we showed to come back from 2-0 down but now it's about taking that sprit into the upcoming matches starting with Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

No surprise that it was Nish who was on the floor in the Vic, like I said before all the signs pointed towards it. Only thing now is that he survived after all.

I just went back and watched the 20th February episode and the amount of foreshadowing in it is genius. The first male characters who appear/are mentioned are all the contenders to die. The talk about Christmas in February was another clever touch. The script writers knew exactly what they were doing and they've done a good job.

As soon as Wolves Vs Chelsea got announced for Christmas Eve I knew Chelsea would lose the match. They and their fans got done dirty by the Premier League! There can't be many worse days to play an away fixture than today.

Kellie Bright said that she was "completely, completely shocked" when she found out who is going to die on Christmas Day and it was not what she thought it would be. Diane Parish was also "gobsmacked" when she found out. ^ Make of that what you will!

Thursday 21st December Crystal Palace 1-1 Brighton & Hove Albion (20:00) Friday 22nd December Aston Villa 4-0 Sheffield United (20:00) Saturday 23rd December West Ham United 1-2 Manchester United (12:30) Fulham 3-0 Burnley Luton Town 1-2 Newcastle United Nottingham Forest 1-0 AFC Bournemouth Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 Everton Liverpool 3-2 Arsenal (17:30) Sunday 24th December Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-0 Chelsea (13:00)

Looks like the Carabao Cup is coming Liverpool's way this season.

Yeah I guess that's true. Nish seems like too much of a bad guy for it not to be him though and he's killed before, normally murderers in soaps end up getting killed themselves. At this moment I would go with Eve coming back and killing Nish.

I don't watch EastEnders regularly anymore but I've heard and read about this storyline and I'm pretty sure it's gonna be Nish getting body bagged next Monday. All the signs point towards it, if I was a betting person I would put money on it.

The match will get replayed as both Bournemouth & Luton have played 16 games each according to the league table which is one less than everyone else. Hopefully Tom Lockyer will make a speedy recovery. For this to have been the 2nd time that it's happened to him is a sign that he should just hang up his boots. It might not be 3rd time lucky if it happens again.

Yes that game will be voided in this as the match score has been voided from the list of games played in the Premier League table for both Bournemouth & Luton. That match will get played again at some point and will be re-posted here when a new date has been confirmed. The original predictions for that match will still count if people don't make a new updated prediction when the replay is about to take place.

I'd prefer a boring 0-0 draw to what happened last time any day! It was a good defensive display from us, we didn't do much going forward tbh but overall it's a good result for United.
