    Doesn't anger me it's just a bit tragic imo and deserves derision. It'd have been like us having a parade for the JPT.

    Not sure what you mean by Google thing?

    When you google "Sheffield Wednesday" fireworks start appearing on the screen going off.

    Yeah fookers coming down to the lower leagues and stealing our trophies. Although it's still one more pot than Newcastle have got for all their billions, maybe they could learn from the Wednesday model, drop a few leagues to win something. Anyway, more seriously, it's as bad as the TV coverage given to Luton's parade, they came third ffs.

    I think the Luton thing is because they are the first club to go from the top flight to non league, then back again.
    Quite an achievement when you think about it.
    Also they are the little guy, I think their whole squad cost them less than £10 million and they have a 8k capacity stadium, so getting into the PL is akin to Leicester winning the PL in terms of the scope of the achievement

    fair enough, its just cos they are underdogs though, which is why people are making such a fuss.
    Same as the Leicester love-in when they won the PL. People love to root for the little guy.

    I don't rememeber thinking of them as underdogs, I just thought, oh yeah that ****te club Luton. They got chucked out the league because of financial irregularities, I suppose if you wanted to say they were punished and Man City haven't been, then yeah I suppose from that angle it's true.

    I'll have a think about it, whether I should be cheering them on next season or not. I enjoyed Leicester winning the Prem, so I'll see if my thoughts change, because like Leicester they deserved to be relegated at the time, and these days they don't call it financial irregularities, it's called selling debt shares now. <laugh>

    Luton being promoted to the premier league is comparable to Bournemouth and Blackpool getting there. It is nowhere near the same sort of achievement as Leicester winning the premier league.

    Exactly this, I was thinking of Blackpool when I was writing what I wrote, but you made it simpler, using fewer words, I'd have just wrote war and peace then told bod to fook off. <laugh>

    Blackpool yeah. Bournemouth spent fortunes of Russian money and would’ve been FFP ****ed if they hadn’t gone up.

    Only thing Luton did differently is finish third with a very respectable points total while Blackpool scraped in.

    Blackpool are the ones that come to mind for me too.

    Anyone who's been to Blackpool know its absolute madness they had a premier league football team

    Can't wait until they start trashing a few places next season, and we all say what a wonderful club.

    I might check out a German game at 7.45pm it's on SKY Sports Mix

    VfB Stuttgart v Hamburg
    Bundesliga Relegation Play-Off 1st Leg

    Stuttgart are 16th (out of 18) in the Bundesliga relegation zone
    and
    Hamburg are 3rd in Bundealiga 2, hoping for promotion

    I know nowt about the Bundesliga other than that.

    Roma aggro. Didn’t see the game as I was watching a man in a dress called Polly Amorous singing to a room of lesbians in a field but sounds like he did well in a tough game.
