All the angst we are going through just demonstrates what a hollowed out shell of an experience the ESL would be. Imagine any of our Premier League seasons without relegation. They’d have all been effectively meaningless from late October.

Fulham must really hate the football gods :ohmy:

I’m feeling a bit bedwetty now. Nothing to do with our performances. It’s just the absurdly jammy way Newcastle and Fulham have bagged three points (at time of writing) makes me fear the football gods have simply decided we’re for the chop. I don’t believe in God but football gods... those...
