So, 8th and a cup final wasn't good enough to save Puel, who is also doing pretty well at Leicester...

They have brought in Hughes.

Southampton almost deserve to go down for such idiotic recruitment policies with their managers.
I agree, but please let them beat West Ham

Yup! Would like us to get Lemina off them if they get relegated.

Most likely Liverpool will spunk 30m on him.

Not sure it's fair on Southampton to have them drown in bukakke. Or maybe it is.

Lol, Jamie Carragher will probably join the bukkake session by spitting on them.

Tbf hughes seems to do alright in his first season it just usually goes to shit after that.

MOTD stat, Pardew has won 2 in last 28 games as a manager for 2 clubs.

Great stat. Great manager Pardew. He sounds like an ideal next Wet Spam boss for next year in the championship. Maybe they could persuade him to stick around long enough to make it into the dizzy lows of League 1. Pardew might manage to win 8 games by that time. That’s probably enough to create entertainment for the rest of us watching the neaderthals cause havoc in their giant, draughty council house. Aka London Stadium.

After this weekend's results...WBA are gone and Stoke and Southampton will go down unless someone produces something special and/or another team suddenly get worse. I could see it staying like this now.

Particularly funny that WBA, Stoke and Southampton brought in managers for some sort of honeymoon period to get them out of the mire.....and it's had zero effect!

Hopefully this can spell the end of clubs picking safe managers who know the league through the old boys' network. Fresh managers with new ideas need to be given more chances.

Was mentioned elsewhere that Mark Hughes could well be the first manager to be in charge of two relegated clubs in the same season. Lol

Looking like that's how it's gonna be...

Still hoping for a survival sunday. For all the exciting football on show... the relegation dog fight on the last day is always something I look forward too. Hopefully thing a will change this month.

First in the PL era, Billy McNeill did it with Man City and Villa in 86/87.

This is the most interesting battle in the last few weeks of the EPL

And even this looks almost done after today's results. Swansea play Southampton in the penultimate game which could decide who stays up.
