Today's Football 2016 / 2017 Season

The weekend was a goalfest (well Saturday was) - now it's all gone Binary.

I must be a bad american cause I have no clue what an elf on a shelf is.

So you buy this elf doll and put it around the house and tell the kid that it's there to report to Santa about whether they've been good or not. Some parents get really into it and move the elf around the house doing all kinds of strange things. Personally I think it's ridiculous.

Anyway, these fixtures looked terrible on paper and they've lived down to the billing so far. Hope some of them perk up in the second galf.

Origi 2-0.

Boro are not making it difficult for them sadly.

Boro look awful

been so dissapointed with them this season so far. I thought they've be entertaining and stay up with ease. They will stay up because they're organised enough in defence, but could definitely do with adding to something in attack in jan.

Come on Swansea...crap like.

west brom 1-0 against the Swans

They have zero threat going forward. Too deep and no agressive at all as well.

3-0 Lallana

Boro are an absolute shambles.

 

[polish]

All goals very daft to concede. They're just crossing for a simple tap ins. Pathetic defending.

Lot of Boro fans feel the same. They were hugely entertaining in the Championship last year but awful to watch this season.

No way Swansea even think about entertaining offers for Sigurdsson or anyone. They're more likely to pull a Newcastle and spend more money on dross than they'd lose by getting relegated.

thought Boro might give the scruffs a game tonight, oh well.

Boro giving the RS an easy time.. as ever we get Arsenal before the RS they get a free night off.. and I dare say Arnowtovitch is out for 3 (including trip to the Pit) for the red card tonight..

Strangely enough I've got 8 results out of 10 over the two nights (current scores) - I "hoped" we would draw and was optimistic they would be held.. oh well, mustn't grumble with our win and all.

Didn't have a single shot on goal in the second half I think.

lol Well that's one way to keep the little monsters in line. I still prefer a world with corporal punishment but this is an inventive substitute. Wouldn't a better option be teaching them why the song says "be good for goodness sake"?
