champers Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Congratulations to Fulham who beat a dull Villa team in the playoff final. The goal came from a great pass from Sessegnon and a smart one touch finish by Cairney. What I would like to know is if their owner has close on to £1 biĺlion to spend on buying Wembley, how much will he spend on new players and keeping current ones?

carmine Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Thoroughly deserved and bl all accounts played really good football throughout the season. Nice to see Fulham back in the top tier and Craven Cottage has always been a favorite for away fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SantiSuk Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 By my reckoning this is the first time in quite a few years that London will have more clubs in the premier division of 'English'* football than the North West (and with the rise of South Coast clubs the Sarf continues its advance in representation over the rest of the country). Haven't checked back to nail down how long - I'm sure BB is our lad for this type of historical analysis. Seems to me that the Midlands must be at its lowest ebb with only two. Trophy-wise London still way off the NW's pace though. Defining London as inside M25; NorthWest as Lancs/Merseyside/Gtr Manchester; Midlands as Black Country + East Midlands + Potteries/Derbyshire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take your point though mate!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
