No I’m with you. Want Bournemouth down as I think they more likely to struggle in championship.

If they're more likely to struggle then teams around us are more likely to pick up points, you want the better teams down if you're likely to be towards the bottom.

Arsenal & West Ham both lightweights

 

[Mild-Mannered Janitor]

That goal of Sheffield United that clearly was over the line.........give that man who didn’t plug the tech in that day a big bonus

 

[jordan210]

Bonus for us is the teams going down might struggle compared to if villa went down.

Court case pending lol

Well, it's Bournemouth, Norwich and Watford next year. Not completely sure if I'm happy or not with those 3 joining us. Watford have a month to get a new manager and restore their confidence. Could have a rough start to the new season. Bournemouth looked reasonable and should be able to carry through some of their belief from this past one. Norwich are the oddity as they seemed stable but were just not performing on the pitch.

Bournemouth must be due to lose a lot of players. Cant see some of of them wanting to stay

Can we close this cringeworthy thread now ?

Also Callum Wilson is likely to be sold on. Surely better than Championship level, even if he doesn't command as high a fee as two years ago.

Bournemouth will lose players , Norwich will be strong and Watford could be a basket case

Cringing ha ha

You didn't have to read it all the way through

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

Is anybody listening to the cricket instead?

I was. Turned Final Score on for the last 10 mins. Great to see Sibley establishing himself in the Test side. Should be set fair for a win now, rain permitting.

 

[Monners]

Oh well. At least we will play on Saturdays. Glass half full

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

I'm listening to 5live and obviously the 'crowd' chatter is on a loop - 10 mins or so. You can periodically hear a woman who lets out a giggle as if she's been tickled just short of the boundary.
I'm on about the cricket.
Anybody else listening?

I hadn't noticed that! I hadn't really noticed the "crowd chatter" at all tbh. At least there doesn't have to be lots of loud cheering for cricket to sound realistic, though. It just jars a bit during appeals/wickets/boundaries. But I prefer almost silence or a quiet murmur to terrible fake sounds like the footy has.

Yeah, that's another thing - those f*@#in short measures at Stans.

 

[Sick Boy]

It’s better for us with Bournemouth going down for the Wilson money.

 

[no_loyalty]

Oh well at least Leicester fucked up their Champions league qualification.

Can you imagine what they'd have to come up with (sound wise) if this was an ashes series? They'd even have to throw in some commentary on the imaginary fancy dress.

 

[Frostie]

Means we can play on Saturdays & Bournemouth will surely sell Wilson now too.
Rivalry aside, its probably the best result all round.

I haven't heard her in the last hour. Bastards must have changed the tape. Either that or she's been ejected for overt flirtiness.

 

[Magwitch]

I belive city fans weren't angels in London

Cov fans stood up to the so called icf and their police sidekicks something that never usually happened there. They have selective memory when telling us how tough they are on YouTube

 

[Grendel]

Villa deserved to stay up albeit with a low points total. Dean smith has done a pretty good job

But there isn't one!

Hard to agree, they stayed up because hawkeye played up and didn't register a Sheffield United goal.
That in itself is extraordinarily lucky

Well they didn’t that’s a Sunderland argument

 

[Evo1883]

Not really, the technology is supposed to protect the integrity of the game, that's is sole purpose... It failed and so happens kept villa up, never failed All season

to be fair they had some poor VAR decisions go against them earlier in the season.

OMG VILLA LOVER

 

[Evo1883]

I mean VAR gave everything by the book, which in itself is often seen as poor by us supporters or ridiculously soft in alot of cases... The villa incident against Sheffield United was a freak incident that directly kept them in the premier league.

Even Stan the prick collymore suggests they were extremely lucky to stay up

 

[Grendel]

Well it is as you can’t put one incident into a season an ignore everything else. Also that goal if allowed would have meant the rest of that game could have played out differently if it stood - it doesn’t mean it would have ended exactly the same as Villa would have took the point and not been forced to push on - it’s a sour grapes argument - Bournemouth didn’t get enough points and ended up beating an Everton team who were already on the beach anyway

I dont necessarily disagree with your point here tbh,especially the first half of it, so it's hard for me to argue against that...

I suppose on balance they are rewarded with another season in the premier league.. 5 teams under 40 points, wonder if that's happened before

 

[Magwitch]

Okay by me, they will pay out another shed full of money added to their debts, reduced gate income, struggle, good candidates for relegation, come down up to their eyes in it and no parachute payments to fall back on, and replaced by us.

Norwich are the oddity as they seemed stable but were just not performing on the pitch.

I think Watford will be one of the strongest if not the strongest team in the league next season. They have a whole host of talented youngsters on loan in La Liga and Serie A who will probably be brought in. I also think Watford will keep hold of a few key players as well, their Italian owners are not short of a few quid either and they have a brilliant Worldwide scouting network so I expect they will bring a few players in and push for promotion. Norwich will more than likely be strong as well they will keep the majority of their squad. However, I think Bournemouth could struggle especially if Eddie Howe leaves.

Anyway, I don't think we should be worrying. about the teams that come down
