This piece talks a lot of sense, imo, regarding some of the shite, poor excuses for Premier League football we have faced recently, who take no responsibility, for the standard of 'product' they are getting paid millions for providing.
Quite a few of us have mentioned this & here are a few facts backing up what we were saying about the negative disease spreading in the game.

Luckily, we are the cure for this & a huge positive for the league, & even some referees are starting to give us a fair chance to prove it, rather than applying the usual brakes on our runaway train (as Sherwood called us).

A good article and its in The Metro, that's a first.
Essential reading for all blues, about the long term plan for CFG. How I wish I were 20 years younger to see the results.(the Grauniad article).

Not being cynical but I think we should wait and see how the media cover our first meaningful loss. If that is covered in a sensible and balanced way, then it may be that things have changed for the better.

IIRC he was nicknamed "Fuck off Phil" in his stint as coach to The Moyesiah
Phil neville was going on about marking David silva, I’m getting a feeling from sky that they are telling opposition to go out and hurt him, ive heard bits about this all week, I’m expecting some seriously bad tackles going in in David in the next few weeks, anther snippet from sky was wengers presser saying we have petrol as well as resources, my god they are trying their best, the spite coming out of peoples mouths is unbelievable, but now they are doing it in a softer tone, not like mr venomous at Trafford

The fact that our football can get rid of this negative disease means we get the decisions we were not last year. What I mean is through the eyes of a conspiracy theorist,.... Utd etc have been bringing in the money for the prem. We come along and upset the apple cart and referee decisions are given against us. Then we show we are on the verge of playing the best football in the world ever and the prem want a piece of it... Refs decisions go for us this year. Crazy conspiracy though pfft
I peronally think the prem is at a fork in the road, they can either embrace the football we are playing or they can try to destory it and keep the status quo/Man Utd
It was interesting on the football weekly podcast, they praised us for a good few minutes and pointed out that the opposition are a few years behind us because this team didn't just appear overnight, it's the culmination of long term planning and strategy that no one else with our resources shares. United throwing £100m fees at a new player every summer won't magically turn into a side that can compete with us.
