What Premiership Team Do you Hate the most?

their combined points tally from the past 2 seasons is not enough to save them from relegation in any of the Premier League seasons to date
they should be banned from coming back up

 

It's got to be Newcastle "We're a big club but we haven't actually won anything, ever, but we are all convinced that we are as big as Man U" United

Or

Manchester "Hi, my names Tarquin and I live in Surrey, I've never been to a football match but I hope that mummy lets the nanny take my one day" United.

Can't think why

 

A little cold down toward the bottom of the table eh?

 

7th place for a team that consistently spend tens of millions a season, not exactly a success is it

 

But we can afford to constantly spend tens of millions each season so who gives a furk?

 

Careful now, soon they'll be accusing you of sounding like a Chelsea fan.

 

I'd love to sound like a Chelsea fan because that would mean we'd won something...

 

Boston United, making dodgy payments which kept my team out of the football league.

 

Most people buy the league, Newcastle just buy mediocrity.

 

That's not true no team buys the league, but you're second point is also uncorrect. Newcastle sign some good players they just have a habit of selling most of their good players. Big Club my backside.

 

everyone who wins the league buys it, to some extent. I laugh when Man U fans accuse Chelsea of it, when they have spent 30m on Ferdinand, 20m on Van Horse, 25m on Rooney etc, but if you are a fan of any team outside of the top four, you don't have their buying power which prevents you from competing.

Newcastle do sign some very good players, they just turn them into rubbish ones

 

Liverpool, Leeds, Chelsea

 

I just can't decide!!

And Arsenal fans are wondering why they do better in Europe than the Premiership.


No wonder Ashley Cole left.

 

Even though Liverpool are the team I enjoy beating over and above all others; Leeds United are the team I despise the most.

The reasons are manifold, but the little-England mentality displayed by a proportion of their supporters stands uppermost in my mind. Fcuk them - may they never return to the top flight.

 

A Manchester United supporter accusing another club's fanbase of being parochial hicks?

Delicious.

 

A fair proportion of them are parochial hicks, Matt, judging from my own (and fellow United fans) experiences with them.

I'm sure we have our own fans like that, but then I'm sure your lot do too, so I can't understand why it's "delicious".

I stand by my original statement.

 

Well, I think you'll find if you were to ask the assembled hordes of football fans across the nation about which clubs they most associated with parochial northern hickery, then Leeds would not be the only "United" that stood proud of that list.

Hence, the utter tastiness of your little contribution here.

 

Have you ever thought for a minute that it might not be about me actually hating foreigners?

Arsenal are part of whats wrong with football nowadays.

 

Maybe if English players were not overpriced and underskilled, we would have some more of them.

 

That's an absurd perspective. Arsenal clearly are an unwelcome and unwarranted extreme that can rightly be criticised for their approach to fostering talent in this country. It's got nothing to do with English talent being undertalented or overpriced - other clubs manage quite comfortably, Arsenal have undeniably taken an insupportable decision not to even try.

That said, they are an extreme, so it's not the end of the world.

 

Player A is equally skilled as Player B

Player A costs 5 million and player B costs 10 million and is English

it seems as though you want Arsenal to buy player B just so they could say they have an englishman

 

I don't "want" Arsenal to do anything - who's got the time? I'm just saying that it's all a bit King Canute to try and pretend that Arsenal are not an extreme example of precisely the problem that Pigs was alluding to.

It's not about buying, for a start, it's about developing. Having an entirely foreign first eleven is no longer astonishing (thanks almost entirely to Arsenal's trend-setting insistence on not having one), but having an entirely foreign youth team?

The world will keep on turning, like, but let's not pretend there's nothing regrettable in Arsenal's current direction.

 

13 Englishmen of the 23 Arsenal youth players doesnt seem entirely foreighn to me
