Hull City back in the prem woo

Genuinely don't remember feeling so little enthusiasm for a season in a long while.

I am looking forward to a promotion push, new cash into the club, too. League 2, Northampton Town.

I've always had a bit of a soft spot for Northampton. I've only met one guy I knew exclusively through Camelot, he lived in Northampton and I traveled down a bit as a teenager. That plus Akinfenwa.

I watched a moody stream of a Northampton v Cardiff game with Home commentators towards the end of last season, they were flipping hilarious.

Things like:
1: "Apologies for leaning across you, my monitor has gone down so I'll have to share yours for a bit"
2: "We can swap if you want, I'm not sure I want to be watching this anyway"

Utter shite last season, but we did gain a record, for basically being the biggest yoyo club going.

Both the fastest rise to the top tier, then flop to the bottom tier

and

The most relegations and promotions between leagues 2 and 1

I mean, I guess I'll be able to watch Liverpool on Prime?

Jeff Bezos' Liverpool deal: What would investment mean for club?

Why investment by a group including Jeff Bezos would not make a marked difference to Liverpool's spending power - and might sit uneasily with fans.

Scumbags don't prosper.

The cheats will not qualify for the next world cup.

I mean, they are hosts, so they are automatically included, no need to qualify. BBC says it was a harsh punishment, but seems rather soft to me. Argentina will be back to usual antics next tournament.

WC 2030 is in Morocco, Portugal and Spain. Argentina need to qualify.

Uruguay, Argentina, and Paraguay are hosting one game each and they qualify automatically.

 

[Deebs]

What can I say but Hull City you rock.

 

[Ormorof]

Dream starts but only half time

 

[Deebs]

That indeed was a dream start.

 

[Scouse]

Excellent.

Now for us to beat the barcodes

 

[Raven]

Excellent start for Hull. Feel for Carrick, another UTD legend about to be thrown to the dogs.

 

[Embattle]

Spurs are looking somewhat terrible as well.

 

[Ormorof]

That’s hardly news, maybe this is the season they do a Newcastle! Get relegated then the Kushners can lead a consortium of terrible people to take it over

 

[Deebs]

What another great football match, COYS (Cunt Off You Spurs)

 

[Deebs]

Lollerpool is off to a cracking start.

 

[Scouse]

What is it, 15 years without losing an opening game?
