    John Barnes is actually supporting Remain. Either way, if you're voting a particularly way purely because someone on the opposite side is voting another, you're a moron. For every Farage, Boris and Gove for Leave you have Blair, Cameron and Osborne for Remain. I detest all six.

    Well, I'm switching off now, actually trying to get some work finished before the results start.

    Remember all......whatever happens with this result.........the Allams will still be ****s tomorrow.

    Really? Michael Gove quoted him as being a Leaver t'other day when King Becks came out as remain.

    Did he flip flop or was Gove wrong (again)?

    I have a feeling that this so call poll of EPL clubs was taken before City were confirmed as an EPL club. It says in the article the following:

    It found: "More than 100 Premier League players would be affected with Aston Villa, Newcastle United and Watford facing losing 11 players from their squads, while Championship side Charlton Athletic would need to find 13 replacements.

    Obvious Villa and Newcastle aren't EPL now.

    Yeah fair point, I just heard on Today on R4 this week that all 20 PL clubs support remain as well as the PL itself. It didn't specify last season's PL clubs.

    That would depend. In the ideal world yes. In the real world we will be too busy dealing with the world's bellends and will have to rely on leasing many essential goods from our supportive cousins.

    Of course, the borrowing rates will be Allamequse and set to last for decades, by which time we will understand the current face of American bullshit and condescending dogma.

    Or we could simply get on with it, as we always have and disregard the tedious across the Pond mutterings.

    Follow the money. Sadly the bookies have remain at 7 to 1 on. Seems like the Elite have won again.

    19 clubs are remain, Assem Allam is leave, that's according to what was said at the Premier League AGM (though AA was in hospital at the time, so I assume it was actually Ehab who was present).

    If that turns out to be right, a plus would be that the inners can't complain about cut backs, regulations and barmy directives anymore. <ok>

    Anybody can complain about anything they like and almost certainly will.

    and others can point out who helped make the bed they're laying in. <ok>

    If it goes the other way, I'm sure the invoters won't accept an "it's not my fault" claim from brexiters if there's a dip in the economy.

    If we do leave , it will restore a little bit of my faith in the voting system. If the result comes back as remain , i will stay (rightly or wrongly) convinced the system is rigged.

    Interestingly City don't seem to have a lot of EU overseas players that would be affected by a vote leave. I guess Kuciak & Meyler, but maybe Irish players might have a special agreement, as traditionally they have played a lot in our league. I think they are the only 2 players at the moment om our books.

    There's Jakupovic and Diomande as well, but it certainly wouldn't affect us much.
