Last day of the pre...
 

[Closed] Last day of the premiership thread. Who's watching what? Predictions....

Should be a good days football! Our local has the City game on in one room, and the scousers on in the other. They did it two seasons ago with the City/United game, and what a bonkers afternoon that turned out to be (I still blame Joey sodding Barton!!!). Today could be equally as mad, I reckon.

So where you watching it, and what are your predictions?

I still don't think it's as clear cut as some people like to think. I could see something mad happening like West Ham scoring early. City looked really nervy, first half, the other night!

I reckon Liverpool will absolutely tonk Newcastle, to finish the season in the style they have played all along. Both teams have played quality attacking football this season, and today looks like a fitting end, whatever happens.

Should be a fantastic 90 minutes, from 3.

Your thoughts....

And as to who I'd prefer to win, I'll quote Gary Neville from last week:

"It's like asking which one of these 2 blokes you'd like to shag your wife"

😆

I am going to predict a big city win, breaking the premiership record for goals scored in a season.

It's all done. I imagine it will be very dull. The media have been desperately trying to build it up, but it really all finished last week; at least at the top.

Sunderland to beat Swansea and finish in 12th place. Remarkable after being 7 points adrift at the bottom.

Being a team mate of Ryan Giggs, he should already know which one has.

Andy Carroll to win the league for Liverpool is my prediction, it was all part of the plan when they let him go, feigned injury and indifference for most of the season and today scores 5 against city.

West Ham 6 - City 5
Liverpool 0 - NUFC 12

and Man U to be relegated (well by the sound of their fans it's close)

Oh and city to be banned from the Champions League for over spending

Watching Liverpool, 4-1 win for the reds.

Sadly, I see city putting 5 or more past the hammers.

First though is all morning of world superbikes.

Better watch out for your mate Ryan, Mr Neville.

Personally, can't see the bookies getting it wrong at the top end - especially with City having been there before.
And can see this being Luis' last game in England, so expect a few fireworks there today.
There's often a couple of freaky results last day. Can be really frustrating for accas, hope you've picked them better than I do bear.

Mid table, a trip to Wembley, and an FA cup quarter final, I'd have had that at the start of the season!

Tottenham vs Aston Villa, what a thrilling end to the season.
Man City will win today, and I expect them to win most PLs for the next 10 years too.

UEFA are suddenly a bit screwed, if they go too hard at city, then when united start spending and with the amount of debt they have, it will become obvious that the FFP rules were always about protecting the position of the big established teams.

With the gross spending I hope City lose. Imagine? The owners shat all that money for 2nd place.

I always want to see west ham win, regardless of whoever might benefit/lose out.

However, seeing the scousers choking away the first title in 24 years will bring me some comfort if we do lose. No-one wants to go back to the 80s again.

Southampton to beat Manc Utd.
Luke Shaw 83rd minute. Final score 1 - 0

The boy's been trying so hard to get a goal lately - shame his finishing rivals Jack Cork's. I predict Saints utterly, utterly dominating Utd but with the usual lack of penetration and conceding a couple via silly mistakes. If Lallana is actually leaving (perish the thought)then he'll likely be all out to get a final goal.

If Giggs gives himself a final game I'll feel sorry for him - Wanyama's a beast and in fine form.

Fingers crossed Guly gets chance to score his first prem goal* on his last game for us.

Hoping city win the prem, purely as the couple of Pool fans at work have been crowing for months. And because I could watch Silva play football all day - the man's amazing!

*for saints. we don't count the one he scored for arsenal 🙄

I'm hoping for an outcome as in 2011/2012 PL,when City won it with Aguero's goal. Fantastic for most sports fans (shame for United,of course..). I feel though,that City will get an early first-half goal or two and kill the tension. Hope I am proved wrong........

15mins in: saints 71% posession, Vidic handball in the box waved away by the ref, no clear chances made by either side. So it goes...

#Edit - bloody hell Cardiff!

He scores when he wants 😀

Seriously, though, that is a pretty Krul way to lose if it ends up like that.

Edit: Oh, and just to confirm, the Stevie Gerrard song is being sung at Norwich/Arsenal.

Wow Man U really are shit these days. Just seen that Southampton have had 68% possession and 12 shots to Man U's 3 in the 1st half.

That's the problem with winning the title 2 weeks before the season finishes.

Van Persie's been offside twice, didn't touch the ball for the preceeding 40mins. They look dreadful, utterly dreadful - but then the big teams all seem to have off-days at St Marys.
