I more took exception to the point that he said the same teams from that period are at the top now, which isn't really accurate is it? YOUR words

Take all the exception you like, This is the wrong argument. Derby and Forest are where they are because the owners didn’t have deep enough pockets, The rest are where they are because they were prepared to spend and have either had owners that were okay with the level of investment or parked...

10th biggest net spend over the past five years, below Bournemouth Leicester £381.4 M £268.8 M £112.6 M £22.5 M All big clubs have willing owners, Arsenal have spend a fortune on 2nd rate players, Leicester have spent moderately and reaped some rewards. Leicester are looking to raise the...

But so have other clubs, even Brentford, Stoke, Bournemouth. Leicester are a very well run club.

Of course you must say Leeds and Forest and Derby County were at that level but that doesn’t mean that City and Chelsea were not big clubs.

City and Chelsea were top teams in the mid to late sixties and early seventies. Both clubs overspent and went down the pyramid. Leicester were 4 times FA cup finalists before winning it this year, won the league cup a few times and have had good history before falling on hard times. I would...

That’s gone right over my head I am afraid

I believe that last years 5th place team was the first test

Not meant to demean him...whilst Doing just that.

But it’s not based on that game is it?

How about two teams in the same league? In the seventies and eighties, i Watched Coventry games with the same fans around me including Man United games. Wearing red, black and white scarves when we played United, next game back to normal cheering on the Sky Blues.

That’s an easy one to answer... the M4 corridor is Chelsea territory with some QPR thrown in to the mixture. Berkshire is Predominantly a Chelsea stronghold, an hour to the Bridge from most places. Like most places Liverpool and United everywhere but Chelsea are the biggest team in that part of...
