The Premier League Thread

So now we’re going to pay him £1.67M / year for the next 3 years for doing virtually nothing ie sitting on his arse but not plying his “trade” somewhere else which might “hurt” the PL. unbelievable really. Wonder if he’s got a bonus written in as well. Wonder if the PL continue to pay into his pittance pension?

List of banning orders last season in the Premier League.
13 Saints fans were banned.
Lucky buggers.

 

Lower mid table finish. I'm sure the boys are capable of some better performances but on the whole, not bad.

Bit surprised that Newcastle are at the top although the continuing run-in with Ashley probably explains that. Not surprised about West Ham though, bunch of thugs.

 

Not sure why you're surprised at Newcastle, they always top these lists. Doesn't say much though going by banning orders imo.

 

I didn't know that. I had the impression they were generally a good bunch who loved their football and got on well with the away support.

 

Absolutely, they’ve never caused any trouble when they’ve come to Southampton as far as I know.

 

Yeah I'd always thought it too but they always seem to be near the top so must be something in it you'd imagine.

Like I say i don't think using banning orders is too accurate anyway and I'm not a fan of how they are used.

 

Newcastle have a huge fanbase so statistically they are likely to have more idiots than most clubs so it doesn't surprise me they're at the top.

 

You dirty northern* bastards. There's a song so it must be true.

*any team above Winchester.

 

One of my mates is a Toon fan, so using that sample of Newcastle fans, they must be w4nkers!



Cheers Reggie!

 

I got a copy and paste reply to this. Exactly the same. The last sentence pisses me off.

 

Lerma of Bournemouth has just provided competition for Vergini for funniest own goal.

 

Oh dear. Huddersfield lead which means we are currently only off the bottom on goal difference.

 

Currently jumping from 20th to 14th. Not bad.

 

Bottom 3 . Boom !

 

Anyone else watching this and thinking Hudders are probably better than us?

 

I think everyone in the division is better than us tbh.

 

still, couple of easy games coming up!

 

wasn't long ago I would shout GOAL!!! followed by RICKIEEEE!!! and Mrs. Serbia would think hmmmm new shoes? now I mumble goal .... she says who for? I say who do you think? and she wonders if those boots will last another winter

 

Just saw the motd highlights.
Citeh, before yesterday’s game, had scored 18 goals, in two seasons against West Ham. Now another four to be added.
