Thought that was pretty obvious
We were promoted with a squad costing around £40m
Man Utd squad cost 650m for example.

Unfortunately it’s a sad reflection on the game when a chasm like this has developed and turned football like formula 1

wow. this is short sighted.

You get promoted and consolidate your EPL status and build from there. Of course you are not going to compete with the top teams or even the Southamptons of this league straightaway. Patience. Any newly promoted team should be content with survival.

This is exactly what i was saying
We cant compete this season. Not saying we cant in another 5-10 years time but very unlikely we will compete to win the league when our current owners wealth is only 450m

Big boys?

Level with ManU.
2 points behind Arsenal and Man City

Maybe comeback when you have trained more in Wumming

We've been without a Spain international and an England international last few games, as well as one of our big signings (spain international) out injured.

Once this team settles, we'll find our way again and finish top 10.

Teams are getting spanked all over Europe, Read Madrid lost 4-1 yesterday, nearly every prem teawm have been spanked too.

Not concerned at all, as we have a great coach who will turn it around.

Oh and this an attention seeking sharticle.

If Bamford has his arms amputated we'll be fine!.

Yeah spot on Germany or straight jackets the way forward. No more offsides or giving away silly penalties with outstretched arms, I'm sure the FA would give this careful consideration. 😄

It was an utterly embarrassing decision to call him offside. I hope those making the rules take a good look at this stuff. VAR is a waste and being made a mockery by stuff like that.

I was all for it in the early days - but it just isn't the same as in other sports - for me it does detract from the enjoyment of the game.

To answer the OP - if you mean the so-called 'top 6', I'd agree with you, but this season, we just need for there to be 3 worse teams than us in the Prem and at the moment, there certainly are.

op is a know-nothing. not worried about playing with the big boys. lots of injuries and ridiculous calls so far have dampened our decent start but no one expected us to challenge for the title. lets get our key players back and kick on.

exactly the same VOF..

absolute shambles - i can see VAR being scrapped to be honest.. if its not getting decisions correct, whats the point of it, other than to slow the game down.


not just because of Bamford's decision.. its ruining the game of football.
