Well, probably not, anyway.

Blimey kids, its less than a fortnight to the start of the new Premiership season, and just five days to the rest of the league. Post excitable preambles, predictions and Evertonian prophecies of doom here.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Monday, 1 August 2005 11:31 (twenty years ago)

Although I'm starting to think Liverpool might knock Man Utd out of the top three this season.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Monday, 1 August 2005 11:34 (twenty years ago)

I think Liverpool might win it, actually.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Monday, 1 August 2005 11:34 (twenty years ago)

If Liverpool win the premiership I will paint myself red and run naked through the streets of the Everton half of Liverpool. Or of course in fact I won't, but it sounds impressive.

― Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Monday, 1 August 2005 11:37 (twenty years ago)

Real version: I don't think they have a significant chance. I think they will be closer to the top three, and they might even be in a three-way race for second.

Bargain of the season will be Teemu Taino, Auxurre's most expensive player in FIFA 2005 (gamecube version), but Spurs got him for free, with like no fanfare. And he can play anywhere in midfield.

― jel -- (jel), Monday, 1 August 2005 15:37 (twenty years ago)

I think Boro will have a bad season.

Everton and Newcastle will be affected by having to play in Europe so early. And, Everton seem to have trouble signing anyone.

Sometimes, when I say 'think', I mean hope.

― jel -- (jel), Monday, 1 August 2005 15:47 (twenty years ago)

Why do you think Boro will do badly jel? They seem better poised than most teams to challenge Liverpool for fourth spot this season, esp. having been able to build steadily over the last two years and now having signed Yakubu - will be interesting to see how he links up with Hasselbaink.

xpost, ah, never mind

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Monday, 1 August 2005 15:48 (twenty years ago)

Seriously, one well equipped team always has to mess up, it could well be Boro this year.

― jel -- (jel), Monday, 1 August 2005 15:51 (twenty years ago)

I've got a feeling that this'll be Curbishly's last season at Charlton.

― jel -- (jel), Monday, 1 August 2005 15:54 (twenty years ago)

Maybe, but their momentum seems TOO strong, ditto Bolton, maybe even Spurs.

It seems more likely to me that it will be Everton who will be unable to capitalise on last year's success...but I don't have much to base that on other than how much of a surprise it was last season. I don't think there are many people who expect them to finish in the top 5 this time, just because.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Monday, 1 August 2005 15:55 (twenty years ago)

Everton will stay top 10 I think - there's still time for them to make some signings. James Beattie might have a better season for them this time. In for a pasting in the Champions League qualifier, I fear.

Oh, I reckon Chris Coleman could be the first manager to go. Birmingham could be a surprise as they have a lot of strikers and money. Spurs may just be wishful thinking.

I have a feeling it could all go a bit wrong for Fulham this time round, Southampton style. This years surprise package = Blackburn, definitely. They'll kick every team off the park and draw 0-0 with all the big boys. Everton looked more than a bit limp towards the end of last season. Man Utd? Depends on Owen I suppose but otherwise they'll be worse than last year. Spurs, with a bigger squad, no nasty Santini-Jol transition phase and Edgar Davids will nick fifth. Charlton to be top six at Christmas and collapse afterwards, as normal. Definitely Souness or Coleman to go first.

― Matt DC (Matt DC), Monday, 1 August 2005 21:42 (twenty years ago)

In my local pub Souness seems to be the consenus vote for first to go too.

― M. White (Miguelito), Monday, 1 August 2005 21:48 (twenty years ago)

Blackburn only learned how to defend when they absolutely had to - they're still lacking upfront. Granted so are Fulham really but they've still got Malbranque!

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Monday, 1 August 2005 22:04 (twenty years ago)

Utd should do better than last year now they finally have a decent keeper and assuming Van Nistelrooy is back to full fitness. Signing Owen likely to do them more harm than good tho I figure.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Monday, 1 August 2005 22:07 (twenty years ago)

Can't see the sense in signing Owen, when United now only have one central striker in RVN, with others playing off him. Owen's hardly a target man.

― AdrianB (AdrianB), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 00:18 (twenty years ago)

As a Villa fan, can I just say that I expect us to have a dismal season. We've only two main strikers, both in their 30's, and Martin Laursen one of our two main central defenders is unlikely to play more than a handful of games, leaving us to play one of the kids. We were promised big signings that once again haven't materialised, and our pre-season games have been woeful. Wolves played us off the park, and we were lucky to scrape a draw against non league Tamworth.

― Koorbssir (Koorbssir), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 07:55 (twenty years ago)

yeah matt dc otm re blackburn, if they manage a confident start they will become v difficult, and i think bellamy and indeed shefki kooky might be alright

jel also otm re middlesbrough, massively complacent at end of last season, something is clearly not right there. defence is probly past it, midfield besides downing (sometimes) is uninspired, hasselbaink meh.

portsmouth to hover midtable but be untroubled by relegation for the most part

man city without barton and dunne to begin with might start very badly indeed.

― hold tight the private caller (mwah), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 08:33 (twenty years ago)

I am expecting young Lukey Moore to light up the premiership, before being sold in the January transfer window.

― PJ Miller (PJ Miller 68), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 08:37 (twenty years ago)

whats up with dunne?

― charltonlido (gareth), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 08:46 (twenty years ago)

hasselbaink meh

second best performing striker in the Premiership statistically last season no? plus they have Yakubu now.

― Sociah T Azzahole (blueski), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 08:52 (twenty years ago)

dunne broke his foot kicking a door in frusration at joey barton biting his hand!

UH HUH.

which statistics wd those be, opta? it could even be true. i still don't fancy em much - when things go their way they will wax it but they will give up just as often.

― hold tight the private caller (mwah), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 09:17 (twenty years ago)

charlton if u dont know about dunne then u probably won't know about the latest exploits of the premiership's realest gangsta!

― hold tight the private caller (mwah), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 09:19 (twenty years ago)

As a Villa fan [...] our pre-season games have been woeful

B-but you won one 14-0!

I won't bother doing the table, cos it'll just be a case of stacking up as many half-decent teams above Liverpool as I can reasonably get away with and then tucking Everton in there too.

I do think it's possible that the ManYoo-RedFilth gap may vaporise this season. No change in the top two. Pompey to go down.

I'm kinda glad that we're not prepared to meet various players' outrageous wage-demands or even gloss over their dubious fitness (hello, Forssell) in order to bolster the squad, but this admirable caution doesn't leave us any stronger than we've been since Gravesen's departure. Lest we forget...21pts from the second half of 04-05. Erk.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 10:21 (twenty years ago)

i knwe dunne got involved with barton, but i didnt know it was to an extent where he'd be missing opening games?

― charltonlido (gareth), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 10:42 (twenty years ago)

why did none of the Premiership clubs buy that Andy Johnson guy?

― Ludo (Ludo), Tuesday, 2 August 2005 10:58 (twenty years ago)

Because they all have people who can take penalties already.

Will you fuckers stop tipping West Ham to go down or I will come round your gaffs and bash your faces with chair legs, you pissy gays.

What part of 'Pardew keen on Togo forward' do you think will stop us scoring goals? You wait, Yossi Benayoun will take the league by storm. Then move to Chelsea in the January transfer window.

All this at a bargain price of £645 for a season ticket.

I honestly think he did. He waited for the keeper to dive, and then deliberately hit it in that direction. Oh Teddy, Teddy...

― Teh HoBBler (the pirate king), Sunday, 7 May 2006 21:47 (nineteen years ago)

I don't think so. He went to pieces after that and was substituted shortly after.

I felt sympathy for the Spurs fans (a view not shared by anyone around me). They made very little noise for their team however. 2-1 also flattered them.

DJ Martian calling something 'rather long'? Blimey, the mind boggles.

If the squad were actually found to have been poisoned, what would happen? I presume Spurs sue for loads of money. The Arnesen case from last year basically paid Edgar Davids' wages. If we threaten legal action against someone every summer we'll be able to keep merrily signing superfluous midfielders for years to come.

The club is currently experiencing an extremely sensitive period, yet Kenny, who remains an employee, has chosen to publicly express his views through the media, without seeking prior permission or consultation, and not directly to any member of the board, despite limitless opportunities to do so.

Limitless opportunities? Typical Birmingham City hyperbole.
