I’m out if we ever get back to the premier league. I think many would be. Especially with so much availability on satellite channels. Quote

Fan power, via protests, soon knocked that on the head. Time for something similar I reckon. Thing is the rest of us would have benefitted had they all fucked off. Quote

It's still part of the game- players and fans witnessing their clubs pit their wits against one of the big boys. Quote

England would end up worse than Scotland as well. Quote

I suppose in time new "big boys" may emerge, but it would be hollow. It wouldn't be long before those that left came crawling back neither. The actions of fans showed just that. Quote

A Premier League quality team that is full of the fight and determination of a plucky underdog. I'll be surprised if Macclesfields 'glory' or three minutes of fame hasn't been and gone. Quote

Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 13 Posted February 13 I feel this reliance on set pieces is a bit overblown. They also succeed with a lot of them too, which counts even much as an open play goal. Still Arsenal's to lose, but city's win at Anfield has shaken things up a bit. I didn't think they would win there. Quote
bolty58 Posted February 13 Posted February 13 Funny feeling Arsenal will kick away again soon. It's their time. Quote
deeane Koontz Posted February 13 Posted February 13 City have been unusually sloppy all season and look unable to make the most of any Arsenal slip up, however they've made 2 top notch signings in Jan, they could well make the difference. Arsenal stadium is a big bag of nerves if they're not 2-0 up early doors, which is piss funny and does them no favours. They're absolutely abysmal to watch I hope they shit the bed again. Quote

The managers themselves not to worry about trying to buy in too many initially neither. Even with money to spend. Everyone seems to chase and demand success so quickly. Quote

Brentford and Brighton are the best run clubs by a country mile. They are the best examples of having a load of layers and making them useful. Manager goes. Loads of money and they already know the next guy. They’ve been ahead for over 10 years now. Quote
