@Captain Ron Classic from Sporf. Can't wait to see Robbie's/Troop's/etc. reaction.

[Captain Ron 12926]

Troopz posted his on his YouTube Channel already:

I haven't watch Robbie's yet

[Hagbard Celine 10929]

motion to have first division promo/rel discussion here rather than a new thread

[MoJames 8255]

Granted.

[maninblack 7974]

It's on...

The silly season begins early.

[Cheeseweasel 26438]

Good luck, Brodge.

No thank you. He might do well at Arsenal, but I don’t want us to participate in this “must hire an EPL retread” thing that this league seems to have going for it.

Would like to see Fulham back, automatic spot looks like it will be tough to hold onto but hopefully they can navigate the playoffs.

[Hagbard Celine 10929]

tomorrow is moving day all across britain.  20+ teams can be promoted or relegated across england and scotland

in the 1st division there is only 1 match between 2 teams that are already safe.  every other match tomorrow features at least one team in desperation mode at either the bottom or top, and a number of games pair top/bottom, bottom/bottom or top/top.

[Captain Ron 12926]

West Brom can't be relegated today, but with a loss they would be within 1 point of relegation. Should Swansea get a point tomorrow, that would finish them off (not likely, they are playing City).

West Brom probably didn't do well to give up a goal 4' into their game with Liverpool.

[Captain Ron 12926]

With 31 goals, I don't see anyone, even Kane catching Salah now. 

[Captain Ron 12926]

West Brom not going down without a fight. 

[mdmost 43054]

Much fight...still going down. 

[Buzzrock 14944]

Elton John’s boyfriends just keep getting younger.

[Captain Ron 12926]

Who is this clown at ref for the Watford-Palace game? He's letting a lot go and it's going to cause a problem in about 10 minutes (we're about 3 minutes before 60' right now).

[Schulz2.0 29012]

Sunderland give up 2 goals from the 87th minute on to lose 2-1 to Burton and ensure their relegation to League One.

[Captain Ron 12926]

I wonder how long before Sunderland see the EPL again.

Wolverhampton cruised today to a 4-0 win at Bolton. With the win, they wrapped up the Championship title.

Oh it’s going to be a while. Ellis Short should get with Leeds’ old board members and author a book called “How to Completely Mismanage a Football Club.”

the Stadium of Light is the 8th largest stadium in England at 48,707. What kind of crowds would they get for League One games?

edit : Just read on Wiki that  the upper tiers will be closed during the 2018/2019 season. Jesus.. someone is taking a bath.

They’ve only averaged around 27,000 this season. Actual attendance is maybe 20,000. A lot of the fans have pledged to stay away until Short sells the club.

Nacho Monreal is the best attacking fullback in the league. Wow!

[Buzzrock 14944]

These Manchester City blokes might make a splash this year.

[ConferenceRoom 6147]

Player of the year.

[maninblack 7974]

Salah played yesterday

[ConferenceRoom 6147]

I said player of the year.

[IPoopOnWhoop 104]

Holy shit what a dominating performance.  The atmosphere looks fucking nuts on tv.  I hope we pass the 100 point mark and all the other records possible.

[Captain Ron 12926]

There isn't any question that De Bruyne is the best player in the EPL. But the POTY award is going to go to Salah.

He is certainly no Jack Wilshere

[Captain Ron 12926]

Under no metric this year is there much of a debate about this. Statistically speaking most places rate KDB as the #1 player in the EPL. He's up for the major league awards and was on the EPL team of the year. Does Wilshere even start EPL games these days?

[Goo Punch 4275]

This reminds me of that time I referred to Giroud as “the best player in Europe” and everyone responded as if I was serious. My first inclination here was just to keep going, argue even more fervently for Jack, dig in even deeper in claiming that a guy with 11 EPL appearances (1 goal, 2 assists) should win the league’s POTY award, but apparently that would just lead you on further so I’ll stop here.

Hey look, it's the Player of the Year. 

[skipperj 377]

Jack looks a little...taller than I remembered.

[Huckleberry 33100]

Yeah, KDB was pretty clearly the best player in the EPL this season. Salah gets the award for the goals record, no biggie.

Although it is definitely kind of ridiculous that the award is given out with over 10% of season remaining.

[ConferenceRoom 6147]

David Silva is still the best player in the league, overall.
