Premier League Thread

Chortle.

 

Whatever gives him that idea?

 

Can anyone think of an incident where this would have applied last season? I don't think I can.

 

That there is one fat can of worms.

 

Pellegrini and Mourinho have signed new contracts. So apparently managers can extend their contracts #hopefulface

 

Didn't you get the memo.? Ron loves it here more than he thought he would. Reckons he's going to stay in England for a very long time. With us hopefully. Erwin has to stay too though. Only right and proper.

 

Toby loved it here as well

 

I expect Arsenal to beat WHU anyway, but I especially hope they do because of how the Hammers treated the Europa Cup. Could have gone through, but would rather hold back their main players for a match they would probably lose anyway. We took more of a risk with Newcastle game....which is a game we might expect to win. So if there is any justice, we should thrash the Magpies 6-0....did you see my impeccable logic there.

 

Let's start the new season with a 6-1 win for Stoke. (God i can't believe how much i hate Brenda)

 

Who.?

 

Bloody hell, VS. Why are you being so generous? I wouldn't give them a goal.

Seguing neatly into a link to Fran's point, a Liverpool fan I encountered yesterday was ranting about Brenda's attitude to Europa. Funnily enough, many of their supporters realise that the best way for LFC to get into the CL is to win the Europa League (the top 4 being almost already spoken for).

BBC Premier League Predictor is back and upgraded. You play against Lawro.

 

I like Krueger's answer when the strain of extra matches was mentioned. Said why should we worry about extra football matches, we are here to play football.

 

I didn't listen to this show, but I caught the monday night club and the friday premier league preview. Monday did top 6 and touched briefly on newly promoted. Friday did top 6 again (covered same ground) and Newcastle(cause Shearer was on). Then newly promoted sides and ran out of time.
The remaining 10 clubs got nothing more than a cursory "They'll be alright this year" or "I think they could struggle"
That's half the league and not to mention the 72 other clubs. It's little wonder fans of the majority of clubs don't bother calling or listening

 

It's up to us to repeat last season. We were flavour of the month briefly, but have now passed into the realms of a safe side with little coverage. Don't worry, by the end of the season they will have Ronald's next club to speculate on.

 

Absolutely. I consider the other teams unrepresented. I'm not asking for wall-to-wall coverage of us, but a fairer bit of broadcast time for all the clubs. If it's a Premier League review, make it a Premier League review. Not a Top6 [feels more like Top4] and relegation candidates review. Instead, they spent about 60 minutes or so essentially talking about 4 teams. Intersperse news items for a remaining 30 minutes and words about which teams will be relegated. Any other clubs who got mentioned were so because a Top4 team was to play them this weekend. It is ridiculous, and I expect better from the BBC [bearing in mind that I expect nothing from any commercial broadcaster].

 

At ease, Corporal Jones.

 

Are Man U suffering players histrionics like we did, De Gea not playing?!

 

I think this is entirely LVG's decision. It's a huge gamble and he's saying, "I'm the boss."

I hope it doesn't bite him in the arse. Actually, I do. I hope it bites him really, really hard and they have a **** start to the season and are then playing catch up.

 

Stick Morgan in goal, he's quite good.
