Oh goodness ...I didn't know about Everton.
That's brilliant !
I've just had a look now and that puts them 15th in 25 points, but still only 5 points ahead of relegation so still need to perform to stay above the bottom 3.

But all in all really good news .
Thanks for letting us know Red.

Everton will be safe because of the manager they have, and because there are 3 teams who are worse. I reckon they’ll hit form in the last month of the season and pull away from trouble.

Neil, my husband said exactly the same about Everton's manager and that he's been great .

Oohhh... So many goals this season !
Watched the Luton v Man City FA Cup tie last night .
Thought Luton were in with shout when they scored from behind to make it 3 - 2 , but didn't last long .
City won 6 - 2 in the end . Haaland is like a tank and he scored most of the goals.

Blackburn v Newcastle ended 1 all but went to penalties and Newcastle went through.

The other 3 Cup games tonight. Spoilt for choice here .

Notts forest v Man U ( BBC 1)
Liverpool v Southampton ( ITV 1)
Chelsea v Leeds ( ITV 4 )

All evening kick offs .
I think I'll flick between the Liverpool game and the Leeds game. I don't like doing that really though in case I miss owt !

In other news, England's lionesses beat Italy 5 - 1 in a friendly last night ..... ROAARRRRR.... LOL.

Yep a few good games coming up tonight but unfortunately I can’t watch the FA Cup over here. Will just have to watch the replay.

I think Leeds will have a tough one with Chelsea as they were so embarrassed by Klopps Kids that they will want to go out there tonight and prove something! Would love to see Leeds get the win tho.

AngelBlue · #**1957** 28-02-2024, 08:30 AM

Yes, won't be easy for Leeds , as you say red, Chelsea be keen to get a result but we still have to factor in fatigue etc.
Be good to see Leeds in semis, I'm also very aware that a lot of people dont like Leeds cos of historic violence at games etc but we see how it goes.
Can you believe I've been in the Elland road changing rooms and seen all their team shirts hung in the pegs.
Was hoping to see the team all in the bath together but sadly I missed that as wind got out I was on my way and on the grapevine they heard I was a bit demented !!!!
Can't for the life of me understand why they would think that ..LOL... But anyway, they
scarpered !

Was still a good score despite the lack of all those horrible toned bodies making the place look unpleasant hahaha...

Ok... Can't scroll down anymore to edit.
I meant "tour" not "score" on last sentence !

Angel tip-If you get one match commetary on the radio ,you can have the other on TV with sound low or down.Then flick over for goals,I will be just watching leeds match,think I will have them in a double with George Galloway to win in Rochdale.

AB yep I know what you mean about going into their change rooms. I did the Anfield tour years ago and it was brilliant, going into the change rooms seeing all the players gear set up ready for the next game. But the bit that just blew my mind was walking thru the tunnel and onto the pitch and feeling like you were one of the players. Omg that was awesome!

Yep Leeds had quite a bit of violence but in those days, every club had the same, but just varying degrees of it. Thank god things have changed.
