Hi people and welcome to my sing up. First the entire story so far.
May 12. 12 noon
Just a week after Manchester United had a 2-2 draw against Chelsea. Manchester United look to have the title sewn up being 2 points clear of Chelsea.
May 12. 2pm
With the teams just announced it looks like Manchester United have given up the title to Chelsea as they have got half of the reserve team playing. With Manchester United missing Wayne Rooney, Edwin Van der Sar, Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs to unknown circumstances, Chelsea are odds on to keep the quadruple hopes going and winning the Premiership for the third time running. Chelsea’s line-up consists of all the big names: Petr Cech, John Terry, Frank Lampard, Michael Ballack, Michael Essien, Joe Cole, Andriy Shevchenko and Didier Drogba, this could become the one of the greatest final day of the Premiership in history.
May 12 4:45pm
Chelsea successfully retain the Premiership after winning a massive 4-0 with Didier Drogba scoring a hat-trick and Frank Lampard scoring a 35 yard screamer against Everton goalkeeper Richard Wright. This result has also affected Everton as they have missed out on an Uefa Cup place with underperforming Tottenham Hotspur nicking 7th place by 1 point by beating Manchester City 1-0. Manchester United have lost against West Ham United 2-0 with a double salvo from Argentina wonderkid Carlos Tevez. With this result West Ham United have survived relegation on goal difference with Charlton losing to Liverpool 3-0, and Sheffield United losing to Wigan 2-0. This means that West Ham United stay up by 1 goal from Sheffield United. The bottom of the table looks like this:
