Yet people argue the Premier League is still the strongest because outside the top teams everyone else has massively improved and stronger than in other leagues

Bottom half of this league is amazingly poor really.Originally posted by Neil Young View Post
I did the BBC predictor thing yesterday looking at the relegation permutations, under a load of different scenarios there'll end up being like 6 or 7 teams on 41 points. They all deserve to go down.
I could not dig, I dared not rob:
Therefore I lied to please the mob.
Now all my lies are proved untrue
And I must face the men I slew.
What tale shall serve me here among
Mine angry and defrauded young?Comment

For the sake of football fans I think the PL should suddenly increase the number of teams to be relegated this season to 5 or 6. I am having trouble believing some of the Sunderland and Stoke players are professional footballers.Originally posted by MrMichael View PostBottom half of this league is amazingly poor really.

Only he knows whether that's true but I thought when I first saw it that the commentators jumped to a conclusion about why he was smiling. Understandable perhaps but still a question of overlaying their own interpretation of it.
Of course it would have been much better if he'd pretended to be hurt, for the sake of appearances, etc. :roll*yes:.
Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.
May the Lord bless this post.Comment

On reflection I quite enjoyed parts of the second half yesterday. Because Stoke had an extra man they seemed to feel like they should pass and move to exploit their advantage. It was quite sweet to see them trying and failing so laughably..

Wigan one up at half time. Hope they win to keep some interest going in the relegation "battle". And drag Newcastle further into it.Comment

If it stays like this, 4 teams on 38 points all with two games to play. How exciting!Comment

Yes, deserved too. I like Martinez , and wigan, even though they're run by an idiot. They'll go above Newcastle if they win this.Trey Nyoni: countdown to stardom-2 years1year0.5 yearsComment

Same here really. I know they get criticised for their fan-base, but I'd much rather have a team like them who try and play decent football, than ****e like Stoke.Comment

I'm the opposite of you Kenneth.
I hate Wigan, I hate the club, I hate Dave Whelan, and I hate Roberto Martinez. Overrated football too. Abomination of a city and a club.
Come on Swansea!Comment

Not sure how anyone could hate Martinez. Perhaps not rate him as a manager - that's completely understandable, but he's always seemed like a thoroughly nice and likeable chap Not a Macedion chap though.
