Bet Fred are paying out as of tomorrow on all bets for City to win the league.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

City look like they could smash United’s 18pt title winning points margin (PL) record. It’s not really surprising that the bookies are paying out already really as it’s all just for advertising! Didn’t Betfred pay out on United winning the league the week before the AGUEEEROO Man City title win though so maybe it’s a reverse psychology tactic from them?

Its been the same since day one....what is it 5/6 different winners in 25/26 years ?

Blackburn managed to buy the title with Jack Walkers money,  Leicester bucked the trend somehow as a one off blip for the competition  but otherwise its been largely Man Utd ( one of the top three commercial teams on the planet with Barca and Real Madrid ) and Chelsea who have bought it with Abromovich's money by and large...both of those are now starting to struggle with new Kings Man City spending ...


and if the Newcastle sale goes through to an arab consortium they all might struggle to keep up with them.

Back in 89/90 the media, supporters and smaller clubs all had concerns over the formation of this League as it appeared to be focussed on and beneficial to the old boys club...and largely it has been.  

The title is now effectively now a closed shop, yes Leicester smashed and grabbed it and Blackburn bought it in the early days, much as Chelsea, Man City have done in recent times.

And as for the England team who were supposed to be the beneficiaries of the PL......well.....I cant remember them even coming close to teaching the World or even Europe how to play the game since 1992.

Didn't some premiere league suit say it was bad for the league when Man U didn't make champions league  a couple of years back,  Makes you wonder if there aren't behind the scenes fixes for the big boys, also remember the fuss when little old Wimbledon were in the prem getting gates of about 10k, again I bet the suits hated that.

It's not just at the top; it's no longer acceptable for a club such as Norwich, Palace or Middlesbrough  to be up and down, in the Premiership sometimes and in the Championship sometimes. The first whiff of danger of relegation and the manager is so often sacked, being replaced by someone who's expected to do a short-term job in keeping them up, to the detriment of long-term development, for fear of losing the short-term millions.

My mate has got a glass coffee table.  He's fitted a big rim around the edges of it.  

Silly buggger must spill lots of coffee    


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Maybe he's expecting rough seas.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
