It is mind boggling mate. It isnt just Chelsea, it is the premier league, and in particular the usual 6 or 7.

The premier league, as an organisation, have both done a brilliant job, but are also an insular, small minded, organisation that will implode. They have done a great job in over marketing and over exposing their product. The self publicising is a thing to behold, and they have convinced half the football watching world it is the best league on the planet, when in reality it isnt even in the top 3. They just keep spending more money on marketing to keep people believing, even though you can watch a game and it be very poor fare.

Their latest ruse, which has me spitting feathers, is to offer a better amount of money to us championship clubs, if we commit to a certain number of u23s in a matchday squad. The idea being it is their u23s, on loan, because they have finally come to the realisation that u23s football is rubbish, oh and sending their u23s to europe is now harder. Here is an idea, and back to your original point mate, prem clubs should play their own u23s, instead of spending £60m on a left back when they already have 2 internationals in that position. Why should the championship become a nursery for the most hideously self centred league? That league can whither away as far as I am concermed. It just gets worse as a product each season, but becomea more self important each season.
Couldn’t of put it better myself, hate the
s hite they dish up, I preyed the six would
f uck off for good but no the slimy twats are still wanting more money. I hope we never go back there while they are still cursing the place, I don’t care how many years we have to wait.
 
Get M'Villa in. I know it doesn't necessarily meet our policy but hey, it's M'Villa. A year left on his Olympiakos contract.

Give up the sunny shores of Greece and European football to take a pay cut and come back to sunlun in the championship playing at kennilworth road in the pissing down rain on a Tuesday neet
 
So most French speaking Africans are the same then ? People from Essouaira are pretty much the same as the Senegalese who are pretty much the same as people from the Congo ?

The evidence amongst professional footballers suggest so.

However, given where they've come from, it's entirely understandable. It's an aggressive culture based mainly on obtaining money.
 
Mate just so you know I liked your apology because I can see you meant no harm. I was with a group of East African kids at the commonwealth games yesterday and security were a disgrace with them. Calling them a gang when they were a football club and accusing other random people who happened to be African heritage of being in their gang. It caused a lot of upset and they left so I’m a bit sensitive today. No intention of upsetting the thread in fact I tried to get it back on track, just thought it was a dangerous throwaway comment I needed to challenge but nowt personal.

Thanks mate. Sorry you had to put up with that nonsense at Birmingham.

We were talking about good hearted footballers in the pub last night and N’Golo Kante seemed to top the bill. I think I’m right in saying he’s a French speaker. Shows there are always notable exceptions. Mane not dissimilar. Not that we stand a chance of signing either sadly !! Maybe Henderson will build a school on Wearside !
