I think we were also joint top in our first pl season but only for a few hours, Chelsea had the late Saturday game, won and overtook us, I think...
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35330621 That was the last time we went top. We stayed top for about 8 games before falling away. Also, earlier in the season: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/34686141
Hmm, wasn't a great performance, but a win and can't argue with the statistics. As much as I want to like Coyle, Josh is a better attacking prospect. McCann still has no plan when we are struggling apart from swapping man for man. Wilks is a must start whenever he is fit, ****houses this division. We're gonna piss the league. UTT
Also, I checked, and we were top of the Prem after we beat Leicester, alphabetical order putting us on top! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36994520
that game was a 12 30 kick off - we were top of the Premier League on our own until after the 3pm games - well done Mike Phelan
We were still top after the 3pm games on alphabetical order. Would've required a playoff with Man City for the title.
Spot on. I've got a screen grab of the table as it was for the moment somewhere in my digital archives.
Worth mentioning that being top after 7 games means absolutely **** all. Add another 25 games to that and there's a reason to be excited.
Missed the vote,missed the match...Backshift!!! Good result,can't comment on performance but top of the league and confidence growing...Loving it!! UTT
Dude, you're talking to a man who has just posted a photo of a league table after one single game. I'll get excited whenever I want.
