Well done Arsenal.

Chelsea helped us out today but now it goes down to Sunday. Need to beat Leeds and have Everton beat Spurs. I don’t know if my heart will take it. Going to be a stressful one!

Dare I say I’m hoping for the opposite outcome?? I’m sorry!! 😭

One of DS's best friends is a die hard West Ham fan and they are seriously considering an intervention to support him-he is taking it all very hard.
So 🙏for Jack

I don't want Spurs or West Ham to do down. So sad.

Neither do I, but as a Spurs fan, I’m really hoping it’s not Spurs!

I am not looking forward to this relegation fight match, at least we are on the other side this time

Our form has dipped massively so I do think Spurs have the easier game, Leeds are the in form team.

Yes, I am pleased that we are not play Spurs or WH and that Palace have nothing to play for.

Hopefully Arteta will play the youngsters.

But I will be forever grateful to Everton for drawing with City and not prolonging the title race until the final day.

Yes, you did!

We owe you a lot.

(We gave you Iwobi!)

I have seen six people with Arsenal shirts or other memorabilia on today.

I always imagine you live in Bala.
And now I'm trying to remember whether I've seen many wearing football shirts there when we have visited. But just can't.

Hello all! I originally joined these threads as Fandango52, but have lost my old email login details! Please may I re-join?

PS - Very well done, Arsenal!! 👏 (Despite my username 😂)

Bayern fan?😂

Itstheyearitstarts · 20/05/2026 17:02

So I’ve just booked a flight down to London for the parade and will be taking my DS down so we can watch it. I was there when we won it the last time and so wanted him to experience it now in case it’s another 20+ years! (Hopefully not).
We might have a double celebration too.
I’ll worry about the costs afterwards 🤣

Good luck Villa!

Popped into a pub to watch it as DH and I were out playing darts. Good luck to Villa.

Oh well done, Villa - great performance! Congrats also to Arsenal. Here's hoping Palace win the Conference League now.

Very well done.

The PL is going to be very tough next year.

Tarkan · 20/05/2026 23:34

Well done Villa. Was very relieved that Freiburg didn’t injure John McGinn. We need him in a few weeks. 🤣

Guess again! My username is quite out of date, given my football loyalties 😂

I'm sure when you were Fandango you were a Spurs fan?

Any Villians on here?
Congrats to Villa.

Loved seeing Prince William there-think good for footballs reputation-some ppl still look down on fans as louts although some on here... 😉
And the Queen was def a Gooner 👑

Good luck Palace!!!
