Football is back!

[mickys86]

Olympics are over and the football season is upon us.....

What's everyone's predictions for the forthcoming season?

same as last season, and the 50 seasons before that. i've still got better things to do than watch 22 grown men kick a bag of wind around a field

Football makes me a lot of money but cant stand to watch the soft tarts playing it. Just installed a 5 dish, 11 receiver, full hd to 10X 50 inch tv's and 2 projectors.

Rather cut my dangly bits off with a rusty Stanley knife than watch football!

My predictions are
A load of jessies will be vastly overpaid and over publicised
The disgraceful abuse of referees will continue and their every decision will be aggressively questioned by the jessies mentioned above.
More clubs will go into administration because of the wage demands of the jessies
Rugby Union will still be a more entertaining sport to watch

For the first time in a long time, I will not have a season ticket at my beloved Nottingham Forest, so for that I fully expect us to to finish mid table, been a while since were either fighting off relegation or on the brink of promotion.

Finally someone revives the conversation haha! I know someone who had a lot of money on forest to win the league. They thought Harry redknapp was on his way. 3 weeks later Harry was favourite but he never went.

We wont be in with a shout of promotion, we have only just managed to sign a defence having lost our last due to either contacts running out, selling them or loan players returning to their parent club. I am happy with having Sean O Driscoll here he saved us last season from relgation and a few of the payers have come out and said as much.

Some of the managers linked with us were dreadful Keane and Hoddle being 2 of them. As for Redknapp no thanks he has screwed Pompey to the ground and doesn't have a very good reputation with his history of alleged dealings behind the scenes.

Blimey that's a bit outrageous, they were favorites for all 3 last season but only won one of them in the last 30 seconds .

Man U for the Prem
Liverscum for the FA cup
Real Madrid for Champions League

Dillb, obviously you're a Forest fan and presumably have been for many years. So question 1 is What would you do if they started playing really crap football and season after season they got relegated and ended up playing non league football? would you still loyally follow them?

Question 2 What's your favourite clothes shop?

I do have a point here mate which will be revealed but please don't think I'm having a go at you when I get to it, because I promise you that's not what this is about

 

[Silly Sausage]

City are nicely warmed up now.
Man U are finished.

And of course, Leeds up into the Premier.

 

[trev]

Archy the same 2 questions to you please mate

 

[Plonker 3]

Of course I would still follow them. Can never see me supporting another club ever. I do watch a lot of football (much to my girlfriends annoyance). Was taken too see them from a young age by my dad and granddad and never looked back since. Seen some very successful times but also some periods that have been terrible, always been there through thick and thin. As my granddad said to me "You change your partner several times but never your football club" Never has a truer word been said.

Favorite clothes shop, depends what I am buying, generally buy what I like the look of and not what shop is selling it.

City are done, Fergie aint going to let them win again this season, he learns fast what needs to be done.

Leeds in the Prem hhhmmmm fancy discussing that over a drink of 7up?

My point is I've never understood that whole (for want of a better word) tribalism that surrounds football. You know the whole "This is my team, always has been always will no matter what" thing and I know that it's probably a "failing" in me (once again for want of a better word).
My thing is I refuse to put any strings on my guitars other than D'addarios, but that's because I think they're the best I have ever used, but if their quality started to go downhill I'd be looking for another brand. Know what I mean?
