Chelsea united and arsenal all got decent premier league opponents this year.

I think the last three season in a row Chelsea have drawn a Championship team at home.

I wonder if the Saints will put out a decent team, or just rotate some of the players.

Thanks Bomber would nice to see my Owls turn the season around. Relgation to "long ball" league one would be tough after all the hard work to get out.

That's funny, I was under the impression you thought the whole of England is stuck in the dark ages playing long ball football with no decent coaches or players. Now it's everything below the championship. :lol:

More like I find it funny because he won't lump "his" team in with his critique, after numerous occasions he has stated otherwise.
I've actually been to League 1 games, I don't think I will be pissed off by a comment from someone that hasn't.

Are you suggesting he's a hypocritical moaner?

I think that's a bit harsh. Next you'll be suggesting that he supports a different team every week.

Not quite that harsh. :lol:
Maybe Wednesday's Barca-esque style of play will see them go straight back up to the short ball league, maybe it won't. Maybe league 2 will be the long ball league next year. :lol:

If a team is playing a particular style and it's not working, why wouldn't they change. I'm more intrigued as to how he's even getting to watch the style they play in. I've only managed to see 2 Millwall games this season on tv.

How man sheff wed games have they shown? How many league one games have they shown?

If you really knew your history, you would know Man Utd have never won at Upton Park in the FA Cup

If you knew your football, you would know there's no such football ground as upton park.

Unfortunately I don't have the time nor memory to commit over 100 years of results to memory.

But, I was of course referring to this magical night:

Temporary unemployment has stricken me the last couple of months, unfortunately.
