Hopefully it will be a lot of Europa League this season, but I'm not worried about next :) I doubt any team will beat Chelsea for the PL this year .. CL is a bit more open and I really hope Bayern can put up a fight against the usual suspects.

Used to stand on the old North Bank, so I'll always have a soft spot for the 'Arse'.

didn't you guys know? jim was a part of the original "casuals" movement. part of footballing history, right here in our forum.

Lol, TL you joker. My older brother was a 'casual', I was a few years too young to be honest. I tried to dress the part though, one of the main reasons that I developed a love for 'exotic' training shoes. ;) Mike thinks that men running around in Fila tracksuits and expensive tennis shoes with silly 80's hair cuts fighting with similarly dressed groups is very funny. Just remember who he idolises:- [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PV4eiDi12w[/youtube]

We are currently top of league 1 (division 3) and still averaging gates of 25,000. Hopefully one day we'll be back in the top flight...

My instincts tell me nothing but greed (and I know our very own David Dein played a big part in it). Seems like the old first, second, third, and fourth division would work just fine without a need for premier leagues and championships. When I try to explain to people here that League 1 = division 3 I just get blank stares.
