    London would have been top if it was more streamlined.

    If they centred everything in a two or three places, it would be ok. But instead, there are hundreds of football teams and people milling about all over the city.

    Of course you could. A few big facilities classy like the Emirates and the OS would be hubs instead of an excess of tired small grounds like Selhurst Park, Loftus Road etc.

    It would be better if there was London FC, London Town and London Ladies.

    Rather than all those poxy clubs nobody cares about or watches. Merge Arsenal, Chelsea and Spurs to make Londons ladies, qpr become London fc (being the only true London club) and the rest can be London Town.

    Think of the savings.

    I think so, this is why Sunderland and Leeds made top five.

    Greater Manchester isn't a city and I don't think that was his point.

    This takes us back to how Spurs aren't in London.

    They're not. Yet a handful of starry eyed Spurs fans believe differently. All very embarrassing.

    Yes, it takes us back to you making up some bollocks and being proven wrong.
    That is rather embarrassing, isn't it?
