Ended 1-1 with West Ham having a player sent off so we go above Watford and are 11th as it stands.

I'll take an average Premier League season. I'm sure you would do as well.

Definitely average but better than the Championship, particularly the bottom 6...

The top 6 clubs throw so much money at it compared to the rest that we haven't a hope of competing. Maybe it's time to start a European super league and let them move on.

Even the top 6 have been fairly inconsistant.. Liverpool have been a major disappointment.

The PL is the most over-hyped league in existence because of the amount of TV money put into it and its 'global appeal'
We do not have the best players playing in it, the majority are playing in Spain, Germany and Italy, however, the media continue to hype it up for our friends, particularly those in the Far East.
Just taking over from where Lotty (RIP) left off.

Not a bad idea. but the super clubs would want to play their reserves in the EPL (or whatever they may call it) and would in little time replicate the system we already have.

Has Tony not instantly changed the team into promotion challengers, I thought he was a great manager who you could get behind.
