The Long and Winding Road... has come to an end
So the Premier League is coming to an end... what will we do on our weekends??
NBC are doing themselves proud by again showing all ten games across ten networks. The two matches that actually have something riding on it are NBC and NBCSN. Man City's visit to Swansea is on NBC while Man United host Bournemouth on NBCSN...after the Spanish Grand Prix. With nothing really to play for the table can still change a lot. There are only three place in the league that are already cemented. Of course, Leicester are guaranteed top spot, Aston Villa are guaranteed bottom spot and Sunderland are happy to be cemented in Seventeenth.
Read that this morning, there could be a possibility that West Ham and Liverpool could finish completely tied on points, GD, GF and GA. A playoff would be needed it a European spot was at stake!
The Pre-Game is on CNBC
Here is where the matches can be found today
NBC- Swansea vs Man City
NBCSN- Man United vs Bournemouth
CNBC- Chelsea vs THE CHAMPIONS
USA- Newcastle vs Spurs
E!- Southampton vs Crystal Palace
Esquire- Everton vs Norwich

NBC doing a great job showing all the matches but the F1 coverage goes right until kick off time bumping off the pregame
I've already got my Soccer Saturday(Sunday) link going. It is still Sky Sports News but I think it starts at 9
Celtic are SIX nil up
Bradford 1 Millwall 3 is a latest score in the L1 play offs
Plymouth and Portsmouth play the second leg later today after the first leg ended Desmond
Championship Play offs have had their first legs
Brighton just missed out on automatic promotion and are now in a major trouble after losing the first leg at Hillsboro 2-0. They had to play the end of the match with ten men after four players went off injured!
Hull have pretty much booked their spot at Wembley with a 3-0 win away at Derby
Soccer Sunday about to start
One website has
May the Fourth be with you... sad state for the city of Manchester
Swansea are in form today but a win is a big ask
Only if United got a draw at Upton Park, a United win and a City draw would have been good enough but now a City loss is a must
Morning, UWS - great to join you on the last day of the domestic season. Thanks for the great post.
Good morning chaps. I'm here to join you , well rested after some extra kip.
Unfortunately, as you mentioned, there's not a lot to decide today. We know the Champions and the runners-up. We know the three sides who are relegated. So, it's only the last few European slots left.
Morning Bob
Which match are you going to be watching?
I know
I know it doesn't matter but as I said, there are only three places cemented
United really blew it on Tuesday. If they had won, then 3-5 could have been up for grabs
Celtic are so thirsty that they went seven up and won by that score.
Morning, MUR - how are you, mate?
I'm going to watch the Swans vs Citeh on NBC and United vs the Cherries on NBCSN
I was thinking of watching Chelski and Leicester but I'll go with the consensus.
I"m well rested and doing great. Thanks for asking. How are you?
Can you post the link for Soccer Sunday - I'd like to give it a go.
Doing well, mate - enjoyed Commencement yesterday and now preparing for my May Term course, which starts tomorrow. I'll be over in the office this afternoon after the match doing some prep.
LVG complaining that Scholes and Co have caused the fans to turn against him... HE'S IS DELUSIONAL!
Your teams are boring... you've made the attacking Manchester United the worst team to watch.
46 goals all season... same as Sunderland, 18 less than West Ham, 12 less than a crappy Chelsea
NOT GOOD ENOUGH

Be patient with the pop up windows. Sometimes other windows open up
Be careful clicking on the correct x
We do have the Eurovison Footie Contest starting in in four weeks with the Cup Final next Saturday and the CL Final along with the Championship playoff Final in a fortnight. I gives us an opportunity to sleep in late
the first x isn't in the top right, it's in the middle and moves down when you go to it
Morning MUR
Agreed. If United finish fifth and lose to Palace then surely, he's walking the plank. I'd like him to be seasoned with a good chicken rub.
What is with LVG? Is he staying? Can United keep a manager that is only there for a year? They are letting him make decisions for next year already... I don't get it!!
Good morning , UWS. How have you been?
It's a mess at United,who were the model club until SAF left.
It has been a long week at school
Not sure how I am going to make it until June 23
The Conference Playoff Final between Forest Green Rovers and Grimsby kicks off at 11 AM at Wembley . The winner will be promoted to the Football League along with Cheltenham.
I will be watching the Champions coming out on USA but I am required to be bored by Man U
I know how you feel. I's been a grueling past few weeks.
I will probably do the same.
Thanks for the link, mate.
Did you catch the Eurovisions last night? First time live on US telly. On the LOGO channel.
20 minutes to kick off and there are still 6 laps to go in Barcelona... better finish soon
BTW, the two Mercedes teammates decided to crash into each other at the first corner and knocking each other out of the race... LVG would have said they were on top at the start if his team did that!
Was it?
I've heard it is so different these days
Last normal was in 97 when Katrina and the Waves won it!
So Wenger is confirming the exits of Rosicky, Arteta and Flamini. Gooner wants a total clear out this summer.
Very different. It seems oriented toward gay audiences. It was on the LOGO, which is the gay channel, so that might have accentuated it.
I have no confidence in United winning today
I have no confidence in United keeping Bournemouth from scoring
Liverpool's draw midweek assured United finished above Pool... always a good thing
Some funny bits on SS.. more to be shown at half time
Celtic won 7-0 against Motherwell today
Speaking of Champions... I really hope they avoid defeat today.. three losses all season would be a great achievement
Security concerns at Old Trafford!!
Kick off delayed at least 45 minutes!!!
The crowds are being evacuated !
There are reports that Old Trafford is being evacuated. What the hell is going on?
This blows the PL rule of all playing at once
United will now know what their chances are
The guy on the Guardian says - "There’s an incident somewhere in the ground that the authorities are dealing with. The ground is emptying, and it looks like a minimum delay of 45 minutes."
Will they delay the other matches?
Security concerns vs the Cherries? They're hooligans?
Two stands are being evacuated
That's what I am wondering. United would have an unfair advantage. Was this planned?
In other news - Max Verstappen has won the Spanish Grand Prix.
I guess. I would watch CHAMPS at last year's champs and the Swans vs Citeh. all the other matches are meaningless.
Swansea v Manchester City will still kick-off at 3pm, but there will be a 45 minute delay at Old Trafford. Fergie time?
I wonder what Bob would think about Not a Big Club in the Prem. It's looking more realistic. Your'e first picks for relegation if it becomes reality?
CNBC has started the Premiership coverage before the Chelski v. Leicester match.
YIKES!!!! Citeh fans will be livid. Hammers fans won't be pleased either.I expect United to win since the Cherries have been in horrible form since they secured safety. The Swans have been in outstanding form
Not happy about it. It does look like Hull v. Not a Big Club in the final. I'm hoping that the Tigers can do them over.
Weird - an empty Stratford End.
No
All the other matches are ready to go
How many teams have had three games delayed in a one season
At least a 45 min delay!
USA still not at the Bridge.. missing the teams coming out
Well done NBC... CNBC are show it
The former champs about to do a guard of honor for the new champs at the Bridge. Wow! Here is the team news:
Chelsea: Courtois, Azpilicueta, Ivanovic, Cahill, Baba, Fabregas, Matic, Pedro, Willian, Hazard, Traore.
Subs: Begovic, Oscar, Alexandre Pato, Kenedy, Loftus-Cheek, Abraham, Tomori.
Leicester: Schmeichel, Simpson, Wasilewski, Morgan, Fuchs, Drinkwater, Kante, Gray, King, Mahrez, Vardy.
Subs: Albrighton, Amartey, Schlupp, Okazaki, Ulloa, Chilwell, Schwarzer.
Referee: Craig Pawson (South Yorkshire)
Here come the Champions
I have the telly on NBC and CNBNC
Lost my SS link... bugger
Even Roman is applauding Leicester City out - nice stuff.
CNBC at the Bridge as last year's champs form a guard of honor for this year's champs. NBC still with a bloody ionformercial
I want to see the top two scorers to get a goal...to bring up the 50 mark.
Will the Hammers finish fourth of they win and the two Manc clubs lose?
Bournemouth fans still in the stands.. they started singing.. we've got more fans than you
Joe Royle back in the dug out at Goodison
Howard in the net for the last time
It could happen , but will the Spursy team give 100%at an already relegated team?
Finally NBC get to Wales
COME ON YOU SWANS!!
They're off from the Bridge and the Liberty
They are off
Joe Royle in charge? I thought David Unsworth took over for the final match
From the Beeb
The Stretford End and the Sir Alex Ferguson Stand are now deserted and there will be a delay to the kick-off between Manchester United and Bournemouth. Supporters in the Sir Bobby Charlton Stand and the East Stand have just been told to remain calm and stay in their seats.
Duo in the dugout at Goodison
It looks like a sunny day in the UK today as it was yesterday
Thanks for clearing that up.
Swansea have started well... the want a pen... never
Corner.. agains Swansea have crushed Liverpool and West Ham their last two outings
Again, I want Spurs to get a point to get second
Citeh break off a Swans corner and De Bruyne is played down the right. The back up keeper, making his Swans debut , fumbles the pass then collects at the second attempt.
Sniffer dogs at OT
It's so sunny at the Bridge that you can barely tell the difference between the two sides.
Both managers in their last match in charge in the match in South Wales.
Do they suspect a bomb at OT - wow!
A suspect package has been identified in the north-west corner of Old Trafford. The police are on their way to inspect it and the area has been evacuated.
Hand ball by Fuchs in the box? Similar to the one on Fernandinho in the match at the Liberty
BUGGER! CITEH TAKE THE LEAD.
Arsenal have scored
Giroud with the goal
SO DO CITY
Giroud has put Arsenal 1-0 up against Villa. Could be a cricket score there.
Not a good start
Really thought Swansea could do it
Pedro tries a bender - doesn't quite come off but Chelski are in the ascendancy.
The Gunners take a surprise lead vs Villa.
The United match has been abandoned!!!!!
THE MATCH HAS BEEN ABANDONED!!!
What on earth?!
What are they going to do?
United have a Cup Final to play!!
Would they play it midweek
Would United play scrubs
Would United drop places
The Citeh goal started with a long ball down the left to Aguero. He played De Bruyne in the box and his pass went to Aguero, whose close range shot was blocked by the keeper and came off of Ihenacho, who knew little about it.
Swans get the ball in the net
Called back for a push..bugger
United vs the Cherries abandoned. Will it be replayed? If so, when?
Shame it wasn't Aguero - I'm still hopeful that the Shield is coming home to the Cottage.
They'll have to rearrange it for midweek.
It was a definite push. If Citeh lose then the match will definitely have to be played, but when . It would have to be after the Cup Final.
A poor free kick from FDab isn't as it goes straight into the wall. It's looking like a pre season match
Man Utd v Bournemouth

10:11
Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick is chatting on his phone, looking concerned, while fans chant "you don't know what you're doing"
Vardy shoots just wide ion a typical Foxes counter as a long ball was headed on
I agree with the fans
Weird that Watford got rid of their manager
West Brom take the lead against Pool
The Baggies bag a lead vs Pool.
11 Changes for the Reds
I don't know about the fans' reaction. If there is a bomb scare, then safety comes first. The last thing they could do is have a threat and do nothing about it.

"Match has been abandoned, Manchester United are waiting to confirm the news, but as far as I am concerned we understand the match has been abandoned. There are sniffer dogs on the far side in the Stretford End, what United will do I do not know."
Pedro fouls Drinkwater
Rondon has scored for the Baggies against Liverpool.
Totally agree with you
a classy standing ovation for the champs.
Demari Gray tries a bender from distance. Well wide.
Ed Woodward and MUFC secretary John Alexander deep in conversation with PL chief exec Richard Scudamore. Still no announcement.
Me too. Safety first
Claudio must be enjoying his return to the Bridge and probably snickering inside. The fans are chanting his name,
Babba Raman looking more like Top Raman as he gives away possession two consecutive times. Probably more like bottom Raman
Everton score and so do NEWCASTLE!!
"It has officially been abandoned. It has been very well organised, very clear announcements. The most important thing now is to get everyone out safely.
"A suspect package in the North West stand. The game has been abandoned on police advice."
The Toon take the lead vs the Spuds and I think that moves the Gunners up to second.
Arsenal are in second right now!!!
Definitely the correct decision.
It's that man Wijnaldum with the goal for the Toon. He's been great - Mitrovic, not so much.
McCArthy for the Toffees while Wijnaldum scores for the Toon. He is now their top scorer with nine
The Guardian is saying that Everton are getting a new manager bounce. Did I miss Martinez getting the sack?
OH!!! Just wide by Vardy past the on rushing Courtois as a nice chipped ball was played behind the Chelsea back four
He got sacked on Thursday, the day after the loss to the Black Cats
Pool tie it up at the Hawthorns while the Hammers take the lead at the Brit
Wow - I was really out of it at work this week. Who's the new gaffer?
Antonio for the Hammers and Jordan Ibe for Pool.
Goals flying in around the country - everywhere but here. Antonio puts West Ham 0-1 up.
Ibe has equalized for Pool.
West Brom 1 Pool 1
David Unsworth is in charge for this match as caretaker, but they have not appointed a permananet manager
Kasper went walk about there - but Pedro couldn't steer it home.
Thanks for the update, MUR.
OH!!! A rare error by Kapser , but Chelsea were not able to capitaize.
West Ham take the lead and go ahead of United
Cheers mate.
These minutes of applause are getting a bit out of hand now. Chelsea fans applauding for the 26th minute to help John Terry's contract negotiations. Really?!
Chelsea fans pay tribute to JT
Arsenal are now a point up on Spurs. Spurs have better GD, though, so they merely need an equalizer to leapfrog their North London rivals again.
Citeh nearly went two up. Aguero was played down the left. He cut inside then shot into the side netting.
West Ham have slipped into 5th, with that match at United abandoned.
As the table stands, Arsenal in second and West Ham fifth
If Southampton take the lead, they would go above United
Ihe nacho was put through, but took too long to shoot. Three defenders converged on him and he shot wide form just outside the box.
Sunderland fans in prissy mood have hired a plane to fly over St James’ Park. “Auf Wiedersehn Prem, Tyne to go” reads the banner.
I still have the Swansea match on
You guys watching the Champs?
A close range save by Kasper from Pedro then Vardy wins a corner on the counter.
How scary is the bomb scare at OT
We have the Euros coming... will it survive?
Azpi blocks from Drinkwater off the corner.
Bit more pressure now from Leicester.
I think it was LVG's package
NBCSN are going to show the Foxes' parade
I assume that the security will be tighter at the Euros.
I'm watching the match from SB and the one from South Wales at the same time.
Well done , NBCSN
Top Raman wins a corer off of Danny Simpson
Moved well away from Old Trafford with the crowds. Security operation so far seems good - no panic, people calmly & sensibly leaving area
Guy Mowbray
Kasper easily gathers the corner from Pedro
Good save from Kasper there from Fabregas.
Bomb squad is at OT
Think there is going to be a controlled explosion
The Gooner, Simon , and dad would be delighted to have the Gunners finish ahead of the Spuds and for their first top two finish since 2010.
Glad to hear that it's under control, but unhappy that there is one in the first place.
Sunderland fans hired a plane to fly over SJP
It reads
Auf Wiedersehen Prem Tyne to Go
Absolutely, MUR - Gooner is a temporary Newcastle fan today.
Kasper superbly turns around a close rtange effort from Willian
A goal at SJP... TWO NIL
Wow! Gooner is dancing!
Sunderland take the lead
Dancing in the streets of Alex as the Toon go two up.
Jack Rodwell for the Black Cats as Fred is in relaxed mood.
Where have Wijnaldum and Mitrovic been for the past month and a half!
Bob's boy, Mitrovic with the second Toon goal.
Good question, mate. If they had been around then the Toon would probably be safe
Terrific double save from Kasper there and when the ball does find it's way into net, it's flagged off.
Kapser made a fabulous long range save then Pedro had a goal disallowed for offside.
Otamendi booked for a rash challenge and a late swans free kick. A minute of stoppage time in both matches.
Baines slams home a penalty to put Everton 2-0 up over woeful Norwich.
The Toffees go two up
Arsenal have gone in 1-0 up. So much for the cricket score - they're in George Graham territory.
Free kick chance for Swans... GOAL!!
Deflected!
Last chance for the Foxes. Courtois gobbles it. And that's it.
Everton double their lead and Southampton take the lead
United dropped more places!
And that is it
Half time
GOAL !!!! THE SWANS TIE IT UP AS JORDAN AYEW SCORES WITH THE FREE KICK THAT TOOK A REALLY WICKED DEFLECTION OFF THE WALL.
Mane, who has been in superb form, with the Saints goal.
As the it stands
Leicester
Arsenal
Spurs
City
West Ham
Southampton
Man U
When will this match at OT be played?
Before the Cup Final?
After?
Fans outside Old Trafford singing... pardon the language..
Jihad John we don't give a fuck
We are going to win the FA Cup
We are off in Wales
Back for the second half to see that Okozaki is on as a sub
Watford tie it up against Sunderland
Greater Manchester Police statement
Man Utd A-A Bournemouth
Posted at
11:03
"Greater Manchester Police is working with staff at Manchester United to investigate a suspicious item that has been found at the Old Trafford stadium. "Assistant Chief Constable John O’Hare said: 'We are doing everything we can to investigate this item as quickly as possible, however our priority is obviously to ensure the safety of everyone in the stadium and surrounding area. As a result, today’s game has been abandoned and a controlled evacuation of the stadium has now taken place. "'We are awaiting the imminent arrival of military colleagues to come and support us and establish what exactly we are dealing with. "'We don’t make these decisions lightly and we have done this today to ensure the safety of all those attending. I am thankful for everyone’s support and assistance and we will continue to provide updates on this matter as soon as they become available.'”
Crazy standings and scenes. That turns the match vs the Cherries into a must win match
Seb prodl with the goal for the Hornets.
Shocking that this would occur prior to a scheduled football match
Sky Sports says the match will definitely not be played until after the Cup Final
