EPL 2017 - 18 season

They've got no chance, if they lost to Pagham. 

Cheers - Phil

Yep, I know, I was there at both matches. Drew one each at there ground (3 hours each way courtesy of the big car park that surrounds The Smoke) and then they come here and win. Without being too partisan we did have a stone cold penalty not given and you wouldn't believe the goalmouth scrambles at their end. They were literally throwing bodies in the way. Still, as the football saying goes we can now concentrate on the league.

Not saying the first match was uninspiring or anything but I got some great pics of a Spitfire and a P-51 (I think) flying over the ground from the Eastbourne Airshow.

Spurs fan here.  I'm sure they'll make a good run and then implode at some point in the season in typical fashion and end somewhere in the 6-8 ranking.

Well its now 2018 and looks like there is only one team in the title race at the moment.

As DFlynSqrl predicted its not Spurs, who seem to have gone off the boil and are currently 6th, even if Harry Kane can outscore half the teams in the EPL single handedly

They might as well give Man City the trophy now. 

Cheers - Phil

Yeah it's hard to see anyone else catching them now.  I think Man Utd are going to implode soon as well, Mourinho's not a happy chappy at the moment and is starting to come out with some crazy excuses as to why they're not competing with City. 

Arsenal need to sort out their contract department as well, to have so many 1st team players out of contract in the summer is ridiculous.

Man city by a mile. But hasn't the EPL just got a bit boring all I hear is managers moaning (even when winning), players moaning, fans moaning, pundits moaning.
Enjoyed the NFL much more this season would love to see the Rams get the superbowl.

[Sandinista]

Probably need to change the name to Empty Pockets Lose, as it seems to be the team with the deepest pockets wins.

cheers

'Fraid I think it's more than a bit boring now, Matt. It's almost tedious.  And I really don't care much about the results anymore.

Ian.....I think you've just come up with the new name for the league.....The DPW League. 

Cheers - Phil.

[DFlynSqrl]

Yeah, it does look pretty set now for Man City.  Just the scraps to squabble over now.

.....The DPW League.

I predict that Newcastle will be the most successful Premier League club in the North East this year. I'm so confident, I'd even place money on it!

I also predict that Swansea will be the most successful Welsh club in the Premier League this year.

I predict that, at least, two managers will get sacked over the course of the season - but will any be replaced before the January transfer window? 

I'm still sticking with these predictions!

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

And Shrewsbury drew vs West Ham!! 

[pierre the shy]

The DPW League. 

Is that the new name the Spanish League? Well Barcelona and Real Madrid always seem to have plenty of money to spend in the transfer market..... 

[pierre the shy]

Well the 2017 -18 season turned out to be a one horse race....well done Man City.

Spurs qualify for the Champions League and get "bragging rights" for being the best placed London based side, for what thats worth, but still no silverware 

There's always next season.....

Maybe I should play in a fantasy football league   

Good luck to Middlesbourgh in their big play off game.....

[Leon]

Good luck to Middlesbourgh in their big play off game.....

I'm hoping we can do it!  In a perfect piece of timing, the first leg was while we were stuck in the van coming back from Falkirk and we couldn't get a radio signal either.  And then the second leg is away and we've scheduled a full day of cleaning in the unit!
