    It's almost as though everyone has forgotten that it was my good luck that has kept us in the Premier League for another season. <doh>

    You said almost exactly that last season at Xmas, when I said Liverpool are one of the best teams of the Premier League era. <laugh>

    Its a good bet to have, and still be in the running. Makes the end of season even more exciting for you as well. I wouldn't begrudge them a chance at the money league, it would be rather nice seeing Billy walking out to that tune! And if they are able to piss Spurs and Arsenal off, then that's a nice little bonus chucked in for free!

    That's exactly why I did it.

    Was gonna bet on Leicester in February the season they won the league (around 25/1), but decided against it. Was gonna bet on Liverpool this season but didn't (4/1).

    For me it's not about how good Sheff Utd are; it's about how spursy Spurs and Chelsea are gonna be. And if Wolves get distracted by the Europa...

    Actually, it's been long enough now between threads - how about a @Susan thread for the Newcastle game to see us through to the end of the season?

    God I am so jealous of Wolves. I know we [edit: 'nearly'] 'beat them this season but their play is fantastic. So many talented players.

    Makes me wish we had an actual wealthy chinese owner with a super agent 'friend'.

    We took a point from them. But I get your meaning.
    I do wonder if they will have a load of clubs bidding for their top players this summer, they have some outstanding talent there right now.

    Yeah this will be telling to me because we were effectively dismantled by external forces when we assembled a quality squad. Money wins and undoubtedly we were happy to sell some of our players but others were targeted when we were opposed to the move.

    So what was the agent's role in that process and will the agent 'friend' behave any differently in this case? When the Agent has only the interests of themselves and the player in mind everything is about the next move and the biggest payday possible. There's definitely something else going on at Wolves at the moment. Its definitely not Kosher to me.

    I dunno man, it feels too soon. I don't want to abuse these special powers. Maybe they only work when we are in danger.
