Checkatrade Trophy must be the reason English clubs are doing so well this season.

I think grimsby being out of and then back in in the football league has coincided with the fall and rise of english football. Youre welcome everyone

Either that or the billions of pounds of dodgy money pumped in by the foreign owners of said clubs over the past few years.

Don’t recall Spurs spending too much cash or having squillions pumped in. Thought the view is Glazers take money out Man Utd rather than put it in and they probably generate enough dosh to cover their expenditure. Probably applies to Man City and the Bindippers though 😄

Yup. All we need now is ‘b’ teams in the league and we’ll be lifting that trophy in Qatar for sure 😉

It’s coming home !!  


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'

Spurs have been copying the Arsenal route of keeping things tight as they build their new stadium. This helps to explain why they haven't won any sort of a trophy for around 12 years and none of the more 'prestigious' ones since 1991. They've done well to get to the quarter-finals this season, but let's not forget that Leicester did the same a couple of years back themselves and they weren't spending much either. The big bonus for them is that they developed Harry Kane themselves instead of having to buy a top class striker. Not many teams manage this and this helps to explain their relative success in recent seasons despite lack of net expenditure.

The Glazers certainly are making a mint from Manyoo, but they have spent masses on players over the past few years as well.

It's all relative, of course. The amount of money the 'Big Four' (or 5 or 6) get from TV deals and the Chumps League is just ridiculous these days, even without their owners chucking more in for whatever reason.

A fairly safe bet seeing as there was a 68% chance of it happening


Yeah you can't trust those continentals can you, what with them living in universe where the maths works out like that.  


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.

I see City have just scored three late goals against Swansea in the FA cup quarter final.  

Must be great if you can just buy a team with your billions and win everything.

Given results this weekend I wouldn't back against them for the domestic treble.
