Meanwhile the National League is developing into a head to head battle between Notts and Wrexham with Chesterfield hanging around. Our scorer has stopped scoring (mirroring Haaland) but others are stepping in. Both clubs currently on course for 100+ seasons for both points and goals.

So the top team gets promoted and the second has to go into a playoff?

Brutal. Have one bad day and you are gone

the Premier League heads in to this weird World Cup break, and it's a fucking weird season man
Fucking Arsenal are first, and have won 12 of 14.
City are dicking around and have already lost twice and drawn twice
Friggen Newcastle have quietly got themselves to 3rd having only lost onceSpurs, Man U and Liverpool have already lost 4 of 14 each. Chelsea haven't won in yonks, and yet they've already sacked the manager.
Off the pitch poor old Christiano Ronaldo has apparently burned every bridge leading out of Old Trafford and will probably be in the MLS by January
Liverpool are either partly or fully for sale, depending on what you read, or what the offer is. -
@mariner4life It's crazy isn't it.
No idea what CR was trying to achieve. Although he had a decent season last year, he's looked off the pace so far in this season. The urgency in the runs hasn't quite been there.
To do an interview with Piers Morgan is absolutely baffling from a PR perspective. There is no doubt that he is a pretty good interviewer, but his worship of CR combined overwhelming desire to create headlines has made this whole thing a trainwreck for him (IMO).

So Gary O'Neil confirmed as Bournemouth manager which he deserved, just waiting for old mate Foley to get the green light as new owner which is expected before Jan transfer window..
Likely on outer - Emiliano Marcondes, Siriki Dembele, Junior Stanislas, Jamal Lowe Jack Stacey haven't had much first-team preference allowing for some new blood.
Zemura, Anthony and Lerma need upgraded contracts which is likely as well but during transfer window, another defender and striker likely required. Lets see how much they would be willing to throw around under Foley..Positive signs at least which seems consistent for every post Parker team lol

My my. Man City are held to a draw at Everton and Arsenal win a slightly frantic 4-2 over Brighton to go 7 clear.
Arsenal's next 6 league games include Newcastle, Tottenham and both Manchester's, with the City game at the end of that run. It's a brutal stretch and one that will define whether or not they're serious title contenders. I could see them losing all 6 I can see them winning all 6, anything seems possible right now.
I think regardless of results City remain the favourite and that won't change unless arsenal keep at least there current lead and win that City game.

Are Fulham nearly safe from relegation even if they lose their next 20 games? And given they have Chelsea at home next (certain home win) 31 points could be enough.
If teams below them keep up this points per game ratio.
Southampton finish with 25/26
Wolves finish with 29/30
Everton/West Ham with 31/32.Who will be sacked first?
Lampard?
Moyes?
Marsch?
Rodgers?
Potter?
Jones? -
@KiwiPie brutal league
7 months ago Moyes was lauded for getting West Ham in to Europe by finishing 7th with 56 points
Now he's probably next out the door with almost as many losses as last season already after only 18 games
Surely Fat Frank is next though. And with him the practice of parachuting famous retired players in to managerial roles in top levels. Lampard and Stevie G have been fucking terrible. Just "knowing the game" is not enough
