I'll go for Chelsea just for the reason that it would be good to see a different team win the league.

I'm not sure. Probably Arsenal.

I don't want ManU to win because I see them having an 'unfair' advantage in trade power because of all the money they get from fans - fans that will always buy their shite, even if they finish last in the Premiership.
With the globalization that is football today, I cannot see a club like ManU ever getting 'mediocre', and I see that as 'unfair'.

This poll sucks! Only three choices?!?! What about 4th place?? :Di did think about it!! believe me!!!

...i really made this poll to try to get some understanding of people's feelings towards chelsea. there's two schools of thought; that it's good to see someone different win the league and that they're unworthy winners cos they've "bought the title".

there's a small part of me that's leaning towards the latter...

Have to go for the west londoners awell i'm afraid! The Mancs and Gooners have had to much of a monopoly of late.
Plus Chelsea won't be the first team to buy the title, Blackburn did the same in '95!

I dont like any of them. But out of those three. It has to be Chelsea. I think Jose is the dog's.

Eugh.

How can people actually vote for Chelsea. They are a filthy club. Their players are not playing for Chelsea because of the support and revenue generated by their fans or due to the shrewd investment by the people running the club over generations.
They aren't playing for the pride and allure of playing for a famous and respected club with a rich tradition and history (because Chelsea have utterly none at all). They are playing for them because a billionaire decided to buy them and make the sport his plaything, paying ridiculous fees and wages to buy the league.
It's like hoping that the Yankees win everything.

Only instead of glory hunting Yankees fans, you have the Chelsea fans who are synonymous with skinheads and racist chanting.

Utterly disgusting.

I'll second that. And don't worry, I didn't vote. Some Arsenal supporters understand the rules ;) :D :D

Man utd are the biggest plastic football team in world football.



As for the question of the thread ,I say Chelsea .
Be nice to have a change after seeing the same teams win the league for the last 10 years.

It's not really fear is it though. I don't hate Chelsea, and for that matter I don't hate Arsenal either. The only clubs I really hate are Liverpool and Leeds. City are a joke.

Most clubs in the world are PLC's, what an incredibly stupid comment. As if having the ownership of your club up on the stockmarket where fans own a fair chunk of the shares is worse than having some Russian billionaire who had never even heard of your club a couple of years ago buy himself some trophy's with you as the lucky vessel for his ambitions.

I just find it amazing that people actually want a club like Chelsea to win. Of course most of the posters here are Americans so you have to expect a certain degree of being detatched from reality.

No surprise to see you support Lazio as well. Are you like a member of the KKK or something? You seem to have a thing for trendy gloryhunter clubs with vile reputations for thuggery and racism.
