[Football] El CRAPico/the Battle of SHITain etc

[Mr Bridger]

With season-ending amputations.

And all their boots get lost in transit on the way back.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Spurs for sure.

We still need Villa to get at least a point away at Old Trafford in the final match, and I think that will be more likely if they've lost to Spurs as there will be an air of 'WTF' and a whiff of 'Amorim Out'.

If Spurs win they could be in party mode / on the beach, OR there's a chance they'll play for Ange in his final game, but then at least that match is in our hands.

Longer term, Man Utd on the back of this losing season could take a while to rebuild and I'd fancy us to finish above them. Spurs will find it a lot easier to recruit a new manager with Champions League football and a trophy on the shelf, and if they do so then they'll be back in the top 7 again, although that might be offset by a Forest slide as they struggle to cope with European football.

Spurs. They were my dad's team.

 

[Jeremiah]

Weirdly Man U. On the basis that however bad they are they seem to pick up trophies - FA Cup Winners 2024 & League Cup winners 2023. So another trophy on their list means little to me. Whereas it's quite funny that Spurs cannot win anything and I'd like that to continue.

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Spurs , they'll still be pissed on Sunday and Skippy will be given his marching orders afterwards.

 

[Weststander]

We’re at Gatwick, have seen two small groups of Spurs fans. Three of whom just tried to queue jump an entire plane load of folk patiently waiting for boarding.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I dislike both enormously. On the one hand, United getting a penalty AFTER THE FINAL WHISTLE still grates, the global army of plastic Mancs are nauseating, if diminishing in number these days, and you can't not enjoy watching Bruno Fernandes' tearful face when things don't go to plan. And Ratcliffe is a self-serving, arrogant narcissist who desperately needs United to win the money, so it would be extra funny if they didn't get it.

On the other hand we have the utterly SCANDALOUS officiating of Michael Salisbury and Stuey "COYS" Attwell at White Hart Lane a couple of years ago, and Spurs fans generally being massive whoppers with a quite incredible (considering how unimportant they've been for decades) sense of entitlement. And Big Ange has gone from being an avuncular, refreshing figure to being an oversensitive, sarcastic, chip-on-his-shoulder Aussie winger whose meltdown has been quite entertaining to watch. He lost his rag again today with a journalist who had the temerity to suggest he was walking a tightrope between success and failure. Hardly "what first attracted you to the millionaire Paul Daniels?" is it? And I don't want to be at Spurs' party on Sunday, especially not when they've been pathetic all season, so I'll marginally favour United, but really it's a win-win sort of game for most neutral fans.

Whichever team our players will be least tempted to join.

With that in mind, I guess Man Utd (even though I hate them much more than Spurs).

With Spurs and Champions League you could see one of our players having their head turned. Nice little pad in London. Just up the road.

Although I think Utd have a bigger rebuilding job to do than Spurs. I think Ange is just rubbish.

 

[Motogull]

Or perhaps the question should be which of these dreadful teams/clubs do we want to lose the most?

That is a better way of putting it.

It does not make it any easier to answer though.

I may not watch. I hope they kick the fukk out of each other in a Palace/Everton turgid antifootball game special. I hope it ends 0-0 and the game is abandoned with no winner.

 

[herecomesaregular]

Such a hard choice over which team losing is funnier....to tight to call for me, as either losing has such positives. Will definitely be watching.

I do expect United to fluke a win though.

Regardless, it'll be a relief that Ange will leave. Will he ever re-find his humour or grow over his now paper thin skin?

 

[brighton_tom]

I dont want us going to Spurs on sunday needing something, and the crowd being jubilant & their players feeling confident/positive because they've just won their first trophy in decades. If they lose the final then WHL will be incredibly toxic on sunday. I want their fans and players low on confidence.

 

[US Seagull]

Which ever manager ends up losing, they've gotta be getting their marching orders, right?

 

[Seasider78]

Spurs they will be out on the piss for the rest of the week and won’t be prepared for Sunday. That and being in the CL means they can steal Glasner from Palace win win

 

[Sussexscots]

United, because I want Spuds and their supporters to be flat, listless, lifeless and depressed come Sunday.

Not them running out with a trophy and the whole place being a Chas and Dave knees up.

One London style celebration in the season is more than sufficient.

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

Spurs to win all day long ….and they hopefully then get lashed up and party for four nights before we play them on Sunday.

 

[oldboyroy]

Spurs, because the Australian is a dead man walking anyway, United lose and there is possibility that Amorim might get the bullet which will disrupt them again this Summer

It's alleged that he wanted to walk in January but was talked out of it?

 

[oldboyroy]

I’d take stopping Chelsea and letting in Villa as we’ve got a better chance of winning a game or two in the lesser European competition.

Just beat Chelsea for us please and you'll be fine whatever European competition you're in. You've been in top 3/4 all season until the last few weeks so you deserve the champions league spot.
