The Soccer Thread (Version 10)

Bournemouth comes from behind for the first time in two years and the relegation battle is on.

Meanwhile, Leicester's buttholes might be puckering for Champions League next season.

 

Depending on what the CAS says tomorrow early morning, LC may be on the outside looking in by the late afternoon.

 

Villa still alive. Just barely, but alive. Huge game at Everton on Thursday. I think they need to win three more and get to 39 points to stay up; 37 might not be enough.

 

Jeez, good thing Watford pulled that out yesterday. Villa and Bournemouth suddenly frisky. Need a result against the Hammers badly.

 

Man City European ban overturned.

 

Guess they paid off the right people. What a crock of shit.

 

It seems my local USL League One team is going to have fans in the stands this summer at limited capacity, which is great news since I'm already a season-ticket holder. My friends and I tend to socially distance anyway at those games -- we don't sit in the stands but grab a large picnic table right behind the big home supporter section, and most of them are closer to the field. Unless things take a drastic turn for the worse, I'll plan on going.

 

Quietly, Man United are undefeated in their last 17 matches and on the cusp of a Europe slot (even despite the Noisy Neighbours getting over). Dropping two points in Fergie Time to Southampton at Old Trafford, though, was a gutter.

 

If Mrs. W and I were still in the baby having business, Bruno would definitely be in the top 5 potential names.

 

Villa looks done.

 

Not gonna lie, cheered a bit when Everton got level. Watford need a draw tomorrow, at least.
