If he can have that effect by sitting in the stands imagine what he will do sitting/standing pitch side. As I wrote earlier : "desperate times call for desperate measures". Terriers visit on Sat. having received something of a maulin' at "The Emirates" last night. Something about the climate in Manchester that affects wristwatches? PEP TIME taken over from FERGIE TIME!

Well I Know 1 Win does'nt make a season,But Reckon it was a decent performance anyway Albeit against a VERY Poor Wet Spam Team....They're Down I Reckon,Along with Palace & The Welsh " Boyo's "

Seems to be a trend this season for Chairman/Boards to appoint managers they know will p*ss off the fans
Following on from Pellegrino at Southampton, Puel at Leicester, Woy at Palace and Moysie at West'am .....

Whilst I have to agree that Palace fans weren't generally jumping up and down over Hodgson's appointment, I think they're warming to him now with the improved performances. From my point of view, it's great to hear a manager being honest in press conferences and interviews.

Fixtures coming thick and fast ...

This weeks predictions:-

Che 1 - 1 Newc
BHA 2 - 1 Liv
Eve 2 - 0 Hud
Lei 2 - 0 Bur
Stk 1 - 0 Swa
Wat 1 - 3 Spu
WBA 2 - 1 Pal (nothing much left to 'appen after the game)
Ars 1 - 1 Man U
Bom 1 - 1 Sot
Man C 4 - 0 WHU

Last "gameweek" Statts 5 correct results with no correct scores Mat 5 correct results with no correct scores

Allardyce on more than Zidane?

Wayne Rooney impressed in front of his new manager last night and according to the Daily Express Sam Allardyce has plenty of reasons to smile this morning....

They claim his £6m-a-year deal at Everton will see him earn more than Real Madrid's Zinedine Zidane, Atletico Madrid's Diego Simeone and Juventus manager Max Allegri.

If he sees out more than 6 months of his contract that will be an even bigger surprise...

Not suggesting that there could possibly be ANY connection, and I'm sure it was really a coincidence, BUT ......

David Moyes was in Dubai appearing on Keys & Gray show a few days before being announced as the New West Ham Manager.
Alan Pardew was in Dubai appearing on Keys & Gray show a week or so before being announced as the new West Brom manager.
Big Sam was in Dubai (and along with having a family holiday??) appearing on Keys & Gray show last week end, just before being announced as the new Everton manager



Be interesting to see who they have as their "guest" this week end ....... if it's Tony Pulis, I'm having a few bob on Paul Clement being out of a job before the week is out

Thank you for highlighting (placing top of the list) this weekends big game Bob

Available to all udonites live on PPTV (ch 36) with the big match build up from 19:00 and the game starting at 19:30.

Suggest you tune in early so as not to miss Pappis Cisse's screamer from the by line of a couple of years ago

Ideal match for those who are "feeling the Brexit pinch" and have to watch how you spend your pennies. You will probably be asleep by 19:45 and so able to save the expense of a trip to town after the game.

Nice to see Conte rest Eden Hazard and others for the Swansea game to make sure they were ready to give their all against the "toon"

Fixtures coming thick and fast ...

This weeks predictions:-
Statto..........................................Mat.
Che 1 - 1 Newc...............................3-0.(your heart ruling your head here Statto! ).
BHA 2 - 1 Liv..................................1-3.
Eve 2 - 0 Hud..................................2-1.
Lei 2 - 0 Bur...................................1-1.
Stk 1 - 0 Swa...................................2-1.
Wat 1 - 3 Spurs................................2-2.
WBA 2 - 1 Pal..................................1-1.
Ars 1 - 1 Man U................................2-2.
Bnmth 1 - 1 Sot................................2-1.
Man C 4 - 0 WHU...............................5-1.

I wonder who, if any, among Rose, Ali, Eriksen, Alderweireld and yes, even Kane, will still be at Spurs at start of season 2017-18; or even after the January transfer window closes. :-" The club's 'Indian Summer' of the last couple of seasons is clearly at an end. So, back to the mundane of battling to achieve position 4,5 or 6 in the EPL!

Che 1 - 1 Newc...............................3-0.(your heart ruling your head here Statto! ).

Not sure if it's a dream or a vision, but I can see Mikel Merino sidestepping two tackles, nutmegging Kante and the slotting into the corner of the net from 20 yds

New Everton boss,Sam Allardyce,pledges to get Ashley Williams back into shape quickly after complaints from fans that the defender was overweight and unfit.....

CLASSIC quote from David Moyse's press conference ......

"I've come here to do a job with the team, and I've got very little idea what's happening" (as most west'am fans thought anyway)

ok i'm not a journalist so i'll reveal that it was in answer to a question about the mayor of London saying he was going to force a renegotiation of the rent etc for the stadium but i'm sure the tabloid boys won't let THAT get in the way of a good quote

Either Statto, poor consolation to the Toon fans in respect of the four or five goals Chelsea will likely score! :-"

Didn't say it would happen today or even this season, but he WILL be that good ........ eventually

Chelsea 3-1 Newcastle

Newcastle went into the lead (again) but Chelsea dominated the match for the rest of the game.

FTChelsea 3 - 1 Newcastle United
FTBrighton & Hove Albion 1 - 5 Liverpool
FTEverton 2 - 0 Huddersfield Town
FTLeicester City 1 - 0 Burnley
FTStoke City 2 - 1 Swansea City
FTWatford 1 - 1 Tottenham Hotspur
FTWest Bromwich Albion 0 - 0 Crystal Palace

Everton have a new hero n saviour and now are a top half table club ...FOR NOW . Suprise package thisseason IMO has to be Watford , playing some cracking football ...can see Burnley going into free fall soon as has Huddersfield making it a familair look n all messy at the bottom .

Arsenal 1 Manchester United 3
Some decent games last night but the late one was surely the best.United were 2 goals up in 11 minutes through Valencia and Lingard,due to poor defending by the home side,but after that Arsenal dominated possession and de Gea made some fantastic saves.A superb display of goalkeeping throughout.Lacazette pulled one back for Arsenal just after half time but Lingard grabbed his second midway through the half.Pogba was sent off with 15 minutes to go and will now miss the Manchester derby but this was the only blemish on the day for the visitors.

Elsewhere,Palace now up to 18th and with Huddersfield really struggling now will fancy there chances of survival.
I see Everton are up to 10th have I missed some teams getting points deductions or what ? Is the torment finally over for there two fans in Asia ?
Liverpool thumped Brighton and are now up to 4th......that's 15 goals in there last 4 away matches in all competitions.

Finally spare a thought for the supporters of Fort William in the Highland League and there long journey home,after they were hammered 16-0 by Brora !
It couldn't happen in the English Premiership could it ? Well,tonight Manchester City entertain West Ham at 11pm Thai time......Pep up against the "Moyes magic."
Early kick off is the South coast derby between Bournemouth and Southampton at 8.30pm Thai.
