Reckon West Ham will get turned over tonight. Imagine the atmosphere will be very tense

I'm torn between not wanting to see West Ham relegated and wanting to see Moyes dragged through shite.

Who do we all want to win in the Dippers v Chelsea encounter ??
I don't want Klopperty to fashion a win and become unbearable again, along with all their wretched followers, in the mistaken belief that their season is back on track but, at the same time, Chelsea dropping a few points is always welcome.

Difficult.

At the same time, Harry Kane's All Star XI will, no doubt, thrash WBA but it would be nice if, having disposed of Mr Pulis, they could put in a determined performance and turn over the arrogant Poch outfit.

It would be nice, but I don't suppose it will happen.

As for the Scum, I suppose Brighton will be like rabbits in a car's headlights and will just lie down and let Mourinho's mob walk all over them.

Ops, a few minutes late. Off to find the delete button

When Gollum gets sacked - and I've a feeling it might be sooner than later - I wonder if Pearce will be given the job as Caretaker Manager ??

If so, that should provide some exciting football for the West Ham faithful.........

England Ladies on BBC2 if anybody interested.

I'm torn in the Dippers v Chavs game. I think Chelsea will mount a greater challenge but still want them pressurising the Rags, especially as the Rags have a few difficult games coming up. Can't stand the Dippers and do like to laugh at them when it all goes wrong.

So, probably, a draw

Chelsea are serious contenders for the PL IMO. The dippers are not. So much as it pains me I shall not be disappointed to see Chelsea lose. Though I can't actually being myself to cheer for the dippers. The usual red cards and injuries would be a bonus

Hope Walmai isn't checking in and reads this MC! It's enough to send even the most optimistic hammer to drink

Can't see beyond a Leicester win. I would feel sorry for Zaba. But on 100 grand a week, fuck it

A winn'ye the poo or a 0-0 draw for me. I think Chelsea will be our major challengers this year, but always welcome for challengers to draw against each other home and away.

As regards Brighton, having missed the opportunity to go to the first game of the season, I'm hoping they'll stay up and 1 or 3 points tomorrow would be very nice, thank you. I'm hoping Brighton will surprise.

(Were you thinking of Bright Eyes?!)

If MC is near a TV there is a program about great bridges of the world on Ch5. It is focusing on the Millau viaduct in France

Hoping for a Chelsea win.
They are serious PL title contenders.
Out of their next 14 fixtures they play 1 top 6 team - Arsenal.

The Dippers are not serious rivals, not with Klopp 'organizing' their defense.
Let them have the 3 points and their 5 minutes in the sun - that is as good as its going to get for them.

I expect Brighton will be well organized and will put it up to the Rags. Houghton is no pushover.
But sadly Utd will win it.

1 - 0 down already.

Haha. Apparently they've never won at the Olympic Stadium when conceding the first goal

Poor Zaba's legs have gone, he should've retired

EDIT: Think it might be when conceding a goal
