eh It's just a list. 6 in the CL. more than 6 in the European Cup. --- Three (AFC as follow on Wimbledon) of the clubs are now in the conference FFS. If you didn't laugh you'd cry.

Taken from .com Since Jimmy Scoular lifted the FA Cup in 1955, no fewer than THIRTY-ONE English clubs have enjoyed major domestic cup success ahead of us, including such footballing backwaters as: Coventry, Southampton, Norwich, Ipswich, Luton, Oxford, Swindon, Stoke, Wolves, Leicester, Birmingham, Blackburn, 'Boro, Wimbledon, QPR, Portsmouth and of course the mackems. You could also add Burnley and Derby - who have won the League title since our 1927 triumph - to the following list of domestic cup winners since 1955: 14 Liverpool (7LC, 7FA) 13 Man Utd (4LC, 9FA) 10 Chelsea (4LC, 6FA) 10 Tottenham (4LC, 6FA) 9 Arsenal (2LC, 7FA) 6 Aston Villa (5LC, 1FA) 5 Nottm For (4LC, 1FA) 4 Man City (2LC, 2FA) 3 Leicester (3LC) 3 Wolves (2LC, 1FA) 3 West Ham (3FA) 3 Everton (3FA) 2 Birmingham (2LC) 2 Norwich (2LC) 2 WBA (1LC, 1FA) 2 Leeds (1LC, 1FA) 1 QPR (1LC) 1 Swindon (1LC) 1 Stoke (1LC) 1 Oxford (1LC) 1 Luton (1LC) 1 Sheff Wed (1LC) 1 Blackburn (1LC) 1 Middlesbrough (1LC) 1 Bolton (1FA) 1 mackems (1FA) 1 Southampton (1FA) 1 Ipswich (1FA) 1 Coventry (1FA) 1 Wimbledon (1FA) 1 Portsmouth (1FA) There are just three other current Premiership sides not to have lifted the League Cup or FA Cup since our last success; Blackpool, Wigan and Fulham. Of course us Geordies with our "unrealistic expectations" have the audacity to think that we should feature somewhere in the above list....

But loaning him to a Championship club potentially on the way up puts him in the shop window to get £2m or so in the summer. He's already proven himself in the Championship though.
-
If the youngsters are good enough why aren't they getting in already? Makes no sense to get rid of someone who may still be needed in this campaign just give them a go, give them a go anyway. I find it hard to believe that Guthries relatively nothing wages make much of a different on the old balance sheet.
-
Jonas or Ranger? If Jonas goes right then who plays on the left? Ranger out wide? The depth is pathetic. Especially when half our midfield are just a card or 2 away from a ban. We're needlessly stretching our squad. I'd bet Routledge and Guthrie are on a pittance in terms of wages too. Guthrie is on £4k p/w if he is still on the same contract he had when he went to court.

doesn't get any better that goal like. Koscielny is fucking terrible.
-
Just can't tell week by week who is going to go down. Changes every week. I'd not be sad to see Birmingham, Blackburn and Wigan depart though although I can't see all 3 of them going down.
-
Tis 34. Forest in 96/97.
-
Jonas.

or not as was the case
-
Pretty harsh. He didn't see the incident, and it's the FA's decision not to punish, not Clattenburg. Why did he give a FK to Wigan then for the incident? I'm guessing one of the assistant's flagged it up? I'm sure they'd have shown that on the coverage if that was the case. Either way if he gets away with it once again makes a mockery of the shoddy rule.

Been impressed but being young and English = big fee. Regardless if they go down IMO.
-
That's reminded me. Yesterday, Blackburn's following was the smallest I can remember seeing for a very, very long time. As in, possibly back to the mid 80s, when people had largely stopped going to matches. I always remember the one clapped out bus Wimbledon used to bring when I walked past the away buses parked on Barrack Road.

Europe: would you take, er, 5th place right now?

They play in the Championship next season. -
He's been playing through the middle of recent but can play outwide cutting in either side.
-
Injuries have ruined him. He's lost his ruthless streak, used to get a few goals, now usually bottles the shot.
-
hardly. all they said is that he will be in trouble, its indefenceable. now imgaine if that was barton..... What did Rooney do? Elbowed James McCarthy in the back of the head off the ball as he ran past him.

That settles it then. Can't find out in the rules of the cup on the FA site. -
Me too, think it's because he used to end up there on a few versions of FM. Thought he'd be off from la Viola when they signed Boruc.

Ronaldo has died and gone to heaven.
