Not very often I watch one full game let alone two which with the help of a bottle of red I have managed today must say so uninspired enjoyed yesterday far more Everton urine poor Liverpool not much better Man Utd totally outclassed by a team with mega money and will have it all sealed up by February so boring

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.
