Blackpool rocking
The second week of the season often spoils things. The league table already has the reigning champions at the top, but they are followed by Blackpool, who, it seems, might do well to enjoy more than one more week in the top half let alone 2nd place. At the bottom, you wouldn’t bet against the current three of the four Ws keeping their places as West Ham, Wigan Athletic and West Bromwich Albion take places 18 through 20.
Wolverhampton Wanderers and Blackburn Rovers are in the “UEFA spots”, but maybe their fortunes will change so that they are not condemned next season to tiresome ties in Montenegro or Lithuania. What odds then that the top and bottom spots don’t change for the whole season?

1-0, mate so youse wrong (FootballCynic writes: FootballCynic didn't count on someone with an incredible name like Odemwingie scoring a goal. Still, West Bromwich Albion do have the second worst goal difference)

Its points that count.....and we are not bottom like you said roflmao (FootballCynic writes: OK, so FootballCynic gets it. So, J165ofOS, Baggiepuss, Easy Easy and Anonymous went to the pub after the 1-0 win over Sunderland. Then, on Sunday lunchtime, Easy Easy was told by the missus that he can't meet those reprobates Baggiepuss, J165ofOS and Anonymous because he would get led astray. Presumably, more posts follow when the pubs open on Monday)

Midtable comfort zone i would say fella (FootballCynic writes: FootballCynic assumes you are another West Bromwich Albion fan. Maybe, you should form a little group of your own. If "Easy Easy" refers to West Bromwich Albion's season, you may have to have a re-think though)

I had great uncle that supported West Bromwich Albion and he was a terrible liar. I would be careful with these lads whose ages probably total less than mine. My great Uncle Henry once told me that Jeff Astle was a saint. For a churchgoing man, this was quite powerful news as a youngster. When he was challenged about Jeff's terrible miss against Brazil, he answered this by saying more people prayed in Brazil than England. Lady Knobhead would call this "utter tosh" (mind you, she calls many things "utter tosh") but I never liked WBA again - nor, in fact, any team that plays in stripes. I fear I may have offended you now, Mr Football Cynic......I sincerely hope your team doesnt wear stripes though I am sure it is not WBA (FootballCynic writes: Uncanny. FootballCynic is not a stripes sort of person, to be honest. And, Good Lord (as Great Uncle Henry might have said), my team certainly do not wear stripes)

We're back! Another 3 points today! (FootballCynic writes: FootballCynic assumes that you meant another 3 pints today)

Still pn for 6-0 - looks like you get the Wigan one a bit out (FootballCynic writes: Come on, by current standards a 1-0 win for Liverpool is a thrashing. What happened to J165ofOS and Anonymous, by the way?)

Worst Broom are the grotyest team the road has ever been. (FootballCynic writes: In the interests of journalistic balance, FootballCynic is allowing this post, but just wait until those Baggie fans get to the pub, you just know it will be 4 more replies)

Worst Broom - vey funny. What next? West Ham. Much funnier. Is grotyest some sort of effort to do a Brummie accent. If so, you've failed mate. Baggies for Europe. (Footballcynic writes: Well, West Brom aren't exactly sweeping all opposition aside)

I didn't know it was possible to 'do a brummie accent' whilst typing.
As you are not the quickest broom in the cupboard (maybe the worst broom infact), I will explain it for you.
If you pronounce the word as 3 syllables; gro-ty-est, what does it sound like? I guess you midlanders have always had a problem with phonetics.
(FootballCynic writes; FootballCynic would like to point out that most Brummies would still use a Brummie accent if they spoke while they were typing. Time to sweep this nonsense aside)
