BlackandWhite1976 (3,051 Posts)	Wont be another London team in the premiership thank God . Bristol is a fine spot and Hull supposed to be nice too though i haven`t been there . Two good spots for supporters of Liverpool and Man united fans etc who regurarly travel over to games to vist for an away match next season . normally fairly cheap flights from shannon to Bristol . Could be a long night for the police in Manchester tonight , Rangers fans running riot after the bad result - the big screen failing a few minutes into the game probably didn`t help!

Was there two years ago for a game against Derby, which they won 2-1. Lovely new stadium. 25K capacity. The city itself is a bit of a kip though. Neither team will survive in the Premiership/Premier League next season though.

B] But sure one would probably have said the same about Reading a couple of years ago. They finished 7th or 8th or something in their first season. Bristol seem to have an excellent manager in this guy Johnson. Very highly regarded. I think Hull have a bit of cash. Didn`t they hold talks with Christian Vieri last summer??

True, and also Wigan and Fulham before them I suppose...I guess the tradition of a club means nothing anymore, its all down to whether a club has a rich benefactor. if they do the premiership is reachable. I see Carlisle have come a long way since the Roddy Collins days. have they got some moola?? I dont think Vieri would be a good signing for any english team...what age is he now?? 35??

There are stong signs that he is having a dose of the black dog.
