Games for 18/19/20 October.

Post Mike Oxsaw »

May as well put this out there now as later:

18 October 2025 - 12:30
Nottingham Forest v Chelsea
League Placings: 17 v 6
Current Form Factor: 5 v 12

🎼 Bye-bye Ange, Bye-bye happiness. Hello, no success, I'll see you on the dole. 🎶
Away Win.

18 October 2025 - 15:00
Brighton & Hove Albion v Newcastle United
League Placings: 8 v 12    
Current Form Factor: 26 v 15

The above "stats" suggest a home win, so...
Home Win.

18 October 2025 - 15:00
Burnley v Leeds United
League Placings: 8 v 12    
Current Form Factor: 7 v 19

Contradicting "stats" here. Shame there's not an option between draw & away win.
Draw.

18 October 2025 - 15:00
Crystal Palace v A. F. C. Bournemouth
League Placings: 10 v 4    
Current Form Factor: 33 v 27

Close, but I suspect a sneaky 3 points here for Bournemouth.
Away Win.

18 October 2025 - 15:00
Manchester City v Everton
League Placings: 5 v 13
Current Form Factor: 28 v 15

Above "stats" again suggest a home win. Who am I to argue with a geek?
Home win.

18 October 2025 - 15:00
Sunderland v Wolverhampton Wanderers
League Placings: 7 v 20
Current Form Factor: 28 v 5

Wolves still hunting for that elusive first win. The hunt goes on.
Home win.

18 October 2025 - 17:30
Fulham v Arsenal
League Placings: 14 v 1
Current Form Factor: 22 v 31

Why bother? Fulham will huff & puff, but the Arsenal house will stand. Not even a chinny-chin-chin will blow the door in.
Away win.

19 October 2025 - 14:00
Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa
League Placings: 3 v 9
Current Form Factor: 21 v 10

Hoping for an away win here, bit I suspect that's all it is - hope. 3 points for the Lilywhites - but only just.
Home win.

19 October 2025 - 16:30
Liverpool v Manchester United
League Placings: 2 v 11
Current Form Factor: 30 v 19

Well. We all want Manchester United to do badly here, don't we?... DON'T WE???!!!
Home win. Hopefully an embarrassingly easy one.

20 October 2025 : 20:00
West Ham United  v Brentford
League Placings: 19 v 16
Current Form Factor: 11 v 21

We all know what we want, we all know what we need.

Will the planned boycott have an impact?

In truth, I suspect not; many will have already decided a 6-pack in front of the telly rather than partaking of the wonderful autumnal world-class evening transport connections at Stratford.

Still, home win? (*sighs*); that's what my heart says, but...
Draw.

Ag-ag-ag-ag-acca:

Wins for Chelsea, Sunderland, Arsenal & Liverpool. £11.00 stake @ about 5:1

Pellegrini was at the Club prior to Fabianski signing so he's likely to have had a big say on signing him for £7M when he did. He certainly appreciated and valued him and was what derailed his 2nd season when sitting around 6th when he got injured at Bournemouth. After that it all went to ratshit thanks to how long he was out and turning to Hussilos old Keeper he worked with. Had Fabianski not got injured that season would have turned out a lot different but that's Football at times when injuries happen to key players like that.

Fabianski was Pellegrini's star man in goal who wanted him at West Ham as his 1st signing. Him and Fornals were excellent Pellegrini buys. He make some mistakes though, like all managers do.

Fabianskis long term injury seriously derailed our good start to the season and was a great foundation for our Team that needed him to stay fit.
You post like you've cut and pasted from Chat GPT 😂

Sullivan signed Fabianski, Pellegrini and his mate wanted to bring in Roberto as their No.1, this is pretty common knowledge.

He might have done better if he could have stayed off the golf course, apparently.

He also signed Roberto, the worst player in any position to ever play for the club.

What is it about our Ex players that go on to do well elsewhere when they leave us.

Fornals assisted both goals for Real Betis yesterday drawing away at Villareal at the heart of their Midfield currently sitting pretty in 5th place.

And yes I will say it, another manager we had we shouldn't have ditched Pellegrini continues to do well with them. So much for apparently using us as just a pension top-up putting his feet up effectively in retirement mode. Always rated him. In his 6th season having reached two Cup Finals and winning 1 of them.

I wonder if Fulham fans are demanding an apology from Marco Silva because they didn’t dominate Arsenal at home?

The other take could be that it takes a big man to admit he's made a mistake and then decide to act quickly. Maybe we gave cock piss too much time.

He’s definitely a big man. That’s indisputable.

Should Dyche demand his usual staff then Sullivans gamble for hoping Postecoglu gets the boot and then doesn't have to fork out for compo for any of Nunos staff still there. Jammy tight cսnt.

Ange has managed to win something in his first season.

He's won the title of shortest ever permanent manager reign in Premier League history.

On the face of it he would, but you never know because of firstly how much money the lunatic will wave in front of his face to rock up there. Everyone in football knows Maranakis is mental and extremely trigger happy (I read 25 coaches in 15 years at Olympiakos or something) so secondly even if it goes tits and SIlva is fired within 6 months it won't even register as a stain on his CV because most people will just see it as a problem elsewhere at the club. It's win win for him really in terms of how Forest perform under him if he's offered a huge wedge to go and Fulham get good compo. Not so good if they are mental enough to hire Ange as his replacement...
