Bradford seem to under achieve or bottle it year in year out ,everyone thinks they will go up every year but they never do so probably will just get in the Play Offs again next year and repeat.

Don't mind Stockport or Carlisle so will be happy whoever goes up ,I suppose as an achievement and motivation for us would be Carlisle as it's another unfancied team who did not go bonkers money wise but made it .

I'm personally shocked that Man Citeh managed to win the PL again after barely strengthening during the summer, apart from bunging a few quid to sign the world's most highly-rated young striker for a couple of generations.

Pep does spend those petro-dollars well.

Bradford, another club who seem to throw cash and everything else at it, much like Mansfield and ultimately bottle it when things get serious.

I don’t mind either of Carlisle or Stockport but I guess, Carlisle going means we keep a nearer away game…

A quick report on the asterisk * which follows Citeh's results in recent years (until it has been legislated):

If I was to be cynical, the fact that UEFA and the PL have both accused them of dodgy financial dealings might indicate there was something in the story.

Probably not a great deal different in the way that Chelski paid their way to success, truth be told.
