Still doesn't hide the fact that the teams spending the most money are having the most success. Blackburn were crucified in 1995 for 'buying' the title. Thats what makes the top of the prem as dull as dishwater. Because in reality only 3/4 clubs can win it. The football on the park may be good but 16/17 managers are fighting for 2/3 European places. The bottom end is where the interest is. Without doubt, the teams at the top of the premiership may be playing excellent football, but you are right, it is a dull competition and has been heading that way for some time. In the 20 year period from 1960-1 season up until 1980-1 season some 11 clubs won the championship: Tottenham Hotspur, Ipswich Town, Everton. Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City, Leeds United, Arsenal, Derby County, Nottingham Forest and Aston Villa. In the quarter of a century since then, only 6 clubs have won the championship: Liverpool, Everton, Arsenal, Manchester United, Blackburn Rovers and Chelsea. And this reduces to only 4 clubs having won it since it became the premiership and of those only 3 have won it more than once. What is apparent is that in the not too distant past, mid-sized clubs stood a chance of competing. Now they stand no chance at all. Although I don't want to return there, I think the championship is a much more competitive league and almost every year at least one of the smaller clubs comes through as a surprise package. The football may not be to such a high technical standard, but all the clubs stand a realistic chance of beating each other. After seeing us against Chelsea and Manchester United I'm not sure when we'll be capable of pulling off a win against either of them. Good post, I remember the Chelsea of old. Pride passion etc., the place is devoid of that at the moment. Which is a real shame - what ever happened to the crowd that used to frequent the shed. They've moved on and been replaced by passionless supporters The chant you only sing when your winning is very appt and Jose has said as much!

How do you know about my motions... oh, you mean Morcambe...? Right! It did indeed suck big donkey's testicles! I feel sorry for the 89,000+ people who got ripped off (with the whole Wembley pricing malarky) only to see that heap of shit!
