After another rather frantic weekend, I thought I'd post up a selection of pics from the last 3 matches...that is, of course, if you can count Liverpool-Arsenal last night as a match!

As usual, any comments more than welcome...cheers!

Really nice work Simon.

I was watching Sky Sports last night when the Liverpool pitch was being checked over and I was wondering what the photographers were going to end up with should the game be cancelled. Now I know.

Simon,

As ever some great shots there - I am sure that the second one was on the BBC website earlier today......I might be wrong though. For me 6 & 7 are the top 2!

Thanks guys, all much appreciated...did anyone else have any 'foggy problems' over the last couple of days? It seems to have hit the whole country pretty much, and I'm sure it's affected others. Did anyone have to shoot in it?

The Valley was relatively fog free, although the light mist messed up the focus on my 135mm, or at least that is what I am telling myself to feel better. I am praying for a light mist to roll into 'The Cottage' on Saturday for some dramatic shots. Joe

Good work Simon... #2 is the pick of the bunch for me.

As Joe said it was only slightly misty at The Valley on Tuesday but not too bad. I'm wondering how things will be at Selhurst Park tomorrow night... hopefully the dense stuff will stay away :lol:

Cheers Gavin...keep us posted on conditions for Palace tomorrow. Joe - I won't be at White Hart Lane after all on Boxing Day, other commitments now...shame, would've been good to meet up! Hope it goes well. :)
