A London club to win before a northern club?

Thunderation and gadzooks, sir. Have you taken leave or your senses?

Tell you what I give you a load of stick when I think you are wrong but think you are spot on on this one. 

Incidentally my first football game on the computer (Amiga which shows my age) had a European super league mode. Interestingly no more than 2 teams per league and there were a lot of good European teams who wouldn't get near the CL quarters now - Malmo, Bordeux and Benfica to name three. 

thanks alot. 

I totally understand your point. The Champions League isn't right cos is very biased towards the bigger clubs from big 4 countries

I’d have a London team to win the title over Man Utd or Liverpool any day.

As little reflected glory for their hordes of plastic ‘fans’ around here as possible please.

Can't believe one of our legends will be working with them lot now

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

I'd use the moniker 'legend' very loosely with Wilcox!

[Mattyblue]

Pretty much ever present in a title winning side, yep he can have legendary status for me.

I’ve just checked and was surprised to see he only played 27 times in the league that season.

[Mattyblue]

Ahh, yes, he got injured in the March… then our form started to drop off - coincidence, I think not!

So Wilcox is a LEGEND for being injured ? In my eyes he was a good player, but not a legend.

The bottom of the PL is objectively terrible. About 6 clubs deserve to go down. 

[Mattyblue]

The 94/95 regulars are legends to me. If they aren’t yours rigger, then fair enough!

Without points deductions there are clearly 3 that should be going down.

Words like "legend" are bandied around too easily. If Wilcox was a "legend" how you classify Shearer? Wilcox was a very good player for Rovers and nothing more.

Anyone who wants a London team to win anything must have had a strange upbringing. It's a fundamental law of northern football fandom. 

[Oldgregg86]

Jackson has all the ingredients to be a world class striker but has no footballing brain or composure

Unless it’s against united or Burnley then I will be a Tory for the afternoon 

[Mattyblue]

‘Strange upbringing’ 😅

I have what connection to Man Utd or Liverpool? I’m a Blackburn Rovers fan, in reality I couldn’t care less about the PL, who’s in it, who wins it - but do I want the red shirted armchair fans of east Lancs getting any reflected glory whilst they take the piss out of ‘shit’ Rovers, their local club? No chance. 

Up the Gooners.

He never looked like scoring with any of the chances he had tonight.

[simongarnerisgod]

despite the massive amounts spent on chelsea`s team,they forgot to buy a class centre forward😁

[Upside Down]

My choices:

City

Arsenal

Chelsea

Liverpool

Brighton & Hove Albion

Aston Villa

The rest of the table

Joint bottom three is:

Newcastle, Spurs, Red Scum

Below them:

Dingles

Law of Northern upbringing? I'd say your the one with strange upbringing. I'd rather anyone (except dingles) over scousers . I hate the bin dippers with a passion . 

Who would you rather get relegated Jim? Burnley or palace, Bournemouth or a west ham
