Football..this seasons premier league...

I don't think it was certain relegation for Macc, although being from Stockport it would have been funny (I know alot of Macc fans), Brian Horton was a terrible manager, I think that the team just needed picking up after such catastrophy, most managers could have done better than Horton. I think that Inces playing experience helped, they did have lack of experience on the pitch.

that really suprised me mate - I been down to moss rose a fair few times when hull city where in div 3 and found you lot to be a tidy outfit

I remember when you had steve wilson our local lad for a fair few years


wierd you say about brian horton - we got him back after him being at the club in the 80s - he came back last season and a lot of fans (me including) say its mostly down to him our recent success - phil brown is a great manager but together they are amazing ;D



and going back to hull city - our so called bubble as burst? never! seriously tho, not keen on pundits saying europe already - we aren't even in new year yet

if we keep the away form going and get some good back up in the transfer window anything is possible


if we do get in europe - possible the greatest achievement in premier league for a club?

[antoine010891]

I know, can't understand what happened with Horton, but it was a nightmare.

If Hull get into europe, then yes, what an achievement that would be, I wish them the best, but I've said from the start that they don't have the staying power of a top team, but after last week when you got 2 against us I may have to change my mind! All looking up now.

hull city are probably my favourite team this year in the prem, i think its brilliant but i have to agree with ant, top half finish maybe uefa cup though.

[IrlamHillbilly]

It seems to happen quite alot with newly promoted teams having a storming start to a Premership season (i.e. Wigan, Reading, Ipswich). Would be suprised to see Hull finishing in a Uefa cup spot. Hopefully they will beat the bitter blues at Eastlands on Boxing Day.

[dontask]

ipswich finished top 5 though didnt they? so they've done quite well. i remember when bolton got promoted n beat leicester 5-1.

[kokainekinney]

top stuff from rovers today, massive improvement! great reception for big sam aswell! mint, benni is looking half decent aswell!

[upton]

Yeah he has probs had the kick up the arse he been in dire need of I just hope they can do the same for Perderson.

[antoine010891]

Woo Hoo, despite liverpool only getting a draw it's nice to see City in relegation, and so the revolution continues.

[dontask]

liverpool were shoddy. though it was ace to see keane silence doubters. big moment for him.

if city get relegated i promise to give 50 quid to charity.

i think i'll join you mate.

aah its bin a mint weekend for us reds. another leeds manager sacked, city in the relegation zone, and the rest of the world is now forced to admit that we actually are the best team in the world. keep the red flag flying boys

[upton]

Sorry silence the doubters Keane yeah he only costs 7 million per league goal....

[antoine010891]

Only 5 million if you include champions league.

[dontask]

takes everyone time to settle in. i kinda meant the arsenal fans in the stadium who were booing him, proper shut them up.

[antoine010891]

Did din't it, I felt great for Keane, he looked overwhelmed.
