Why we got so many threads about other teams on our page?

So far our best season in the PL ever and a few people seem more bothered about other teams than our beloved Spurs?
 
The relative demise of Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool is plain to see.

It's also a myth.
As I've pointed out on 6061's results comparison thread, Chelsea and Man Utd are actually a point better off than they were having played the same number of games last season.
Liverpool are 9 points better off, with only Arsenal having dropped 3 points, compared to their equivalent tally in the previous campaign.

Spurs and City have racked up an additional 9 and 10 points, making the other sides' totals look less impressive.
That's the only thing that's significantly changed.
 
That's because City have been much better than Utd were last season, when they were the leaders, Lidls.
The bar has been raised.
If Spurs were to beat Everton, then we'd have more points this season than Man Utd did after the same number of games last season.

On a separate subject, Barton's red card appeal has been dismissed. <doh>
Ridiculous.
He'll be all atwitter, I'm sure.
Can't say that I blame him, to be honest.
 
Manchester United have been given an important boost for their tie against Newcastle tonight.
They see a return to their line-up for Howard Webb.
 
I knew I'd seen him before!

Liverpool looking to sign Darren Bent for £30m....Surely saying 'We are sorry for being racists' would of been cheaper?
 
Comolli signed Bent for Spurs, so it's no surprise that he wants to sign him again.
No idea how his supposed Moneyball system has flagged Bent up, though.
Isn't it statistic based?

That or he's worried that Villa will pip them to the final Europa League place. See if they bid for Yoann Cabaye as well...

It's our duty to give the Goonns, Chavs, Mancs and Mickey Mousers something that concerns them to read when they vist our board...
 
Just seen the Ba penalty Webb turned down. Absolute stonewaller, how is he still allowed to referee Utd games when his record for bad decisions to Fergie's benefit is so long.
