they were improving their game and I thought Wigan really should have gone down.

Here's hoping for the Hornets' future success. :hi:

58. No, Wigan beat the pigs on the last day

Therefore the pigs went down.

And let's face it, it's always good to see Sheffield U****d get relegated, especially when you consider that they were managed by Neil warnock last year.

64. The reason why the blunts are doing so badly is Bryan Robson

he was a great player but he's not a good manager. The blunts have spent big and there's only James Beattie who's delivering for them.

As to the REAL Sheffield team (Sheffield Wednesday in case you were wondering), we had an appalling start to the season but we turned things round last month and now we've got to get some more points on the board and get back up the league.

Part of the hatred directed at the Yankees, though, stems from the fact of their great success....

51. It's not a simple comparison. English football have 4 teams who dominate

The winningest is Liverpool, though not in a while
Man U
Arsenal

and recently Chelsea who were a mediocre team bought by a Russian ologarch who has spent hundreds of millions buying the championship so many relate them to the Yankees.

59. Yes

Lots of supporters, very few of whom have ever been anywhere near Manchester.

"glory hunters" and "prawn sandwich eating tossers" are the phrases frequently used to describe Man U fans.
