I was one too, MFOR indeed, although occasionally spiced by some interesting stuff. On the other hand, same qualities are required for anything involving selling - whether goods, services or policies - lobbying etc. Did that, too. Did do and do some consulting (loosely termed) as it's objective driven. But some of it is MFOR. BUT whoever the client is gets what they want I.e. can we get this asset from that point to this point, what are the risks etc, etc. Not the 'blue-sky' thinking stuff that alot of the Consultants do.

As Blakey from On The Buses used to say "That's made my day that has"! I think all across the game the majority of fans are grinning today! Things change across The EPL but generally speaking my categorising or my personal identity...of/for clubs remains more or less the same over the years regardless of ownership etc. Citeh always a "like Chelsea" club,,Joe and Malcolm..Bell, Trautman ,,slings and arrows over the years but paying back the punters for those years now.,,,sneered at by the arrogant Manure louts...Liverpool ?...no need for any comment...Spurs?..always the live in the past Glory glory club the source of much anger from me as a youngster (and still) due to the useless non football kids who jumped on the Double years..."Lucky" Arsenal with an entitled forever better than anyone else moral high ground self image,,,"Plucky" Fulham, and on and on....all meaning I want Citeh to top the EPL and the Scouse lot and the truly Arse crowd to cry in their beds come the end of the season.... Biased?..you bet your sweet Bippy... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of them wanted him to go before he turned them around with a good season last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we have a favourite (survive)? Mine has to be Luton. Not for any good reason other than I kinda like old grounds with character, Kenilworth ground- and I haven't even been there. Must be the grumpy old man in me 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chara Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 @asvaberg...good question......as mentioned probably too often over the years Burnley at SB was the first game I went to and until recently always had a soft spot for them completely wrecked by a certain past coach and thug player but a bit softer now..Forest on the other hand never became a disliked side or one I warmed to..just middle of the road "respected". Luton,,,sorry...find it hard to take the club seriously and always felt like they were "visiting" the EPL....so to choose....by a slight margin Forest but as all three have battled against the odds I would have no issue with any of them surviving 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisb Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 I’m for Forest too. Not fussed about Burnley one way or the other. Luton, well it’s Luton isn’t it! I can see us becoming a Notts Forrest in the not too distant future, former European Champions yo-yoing between divisions! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts are purely selfish as regards away trips. So Sheffield, Burnley and Forest down for me - keep Luton. Coming up Leicester, Ipswich and Southampton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming up Leicester, Ipswich and Southampton This. Dislike Leeds with a passion, Leicester already up and hopefully Ipswich will follow, it's not a good for the Prem if the same old teams keep coming back. Don't mind Southampton or WBA, but I'm not having D(H)ull . As for the Prem, I wuah Everton would go down, can't stand their small man fans, but there's no chance of that happening now 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No thanks, he just a poor man's Frank Lampard. His limitations were badly exposed las season. TBH, I wouldn't touch any Man U plyers with a bargepole, and Garnacho, Mainoo we can't afford because of FFP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
