The mOssive elephant in the room

Mods, feel free to delete this if it's inappropriate.

I think we're all aware of a major issue that has been going on recently and that has far-reaching and dramatic consequences for everyone, even those not especially closely involved. No-one has been more shocked than me to be fair as it's quite unlike their behaviour up until this point. I think we've all laughed along with, but mostly AT them over the years.

Obviously it leaves a very bad taste in the mouth and this is only going to get worse in the future as it progresses.

The dingles are at the top of their division with the appalling possibility of them breaking into the top flight.
Hopefully they'll blow up as usual and provide us with the usual LOffs, but it's all looking remarkably consistent at this point.

Sad times. :(

Oh, come on, you must admit that it's only fair that they should be in the top flight - after all, they're a BIG club, it's where they belong - just like the other BIG West Midlands clubs like Birmingham City and Aston Vi.....Oh, hang on....... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Absolutely mOssive result. And probably what makes them the biggest club of the epoc.

They belong in the Premier League, because they're plastic now.

They can't blow it, can they? The other contenders are a pretty unremarkable bunch: a workmanlike Neil Warnock side, four-fifths of the Sheffield United side we turned over three times in six months, an injury ravaged Villa squad, a Derby team of perennial chokers that has lost some of its best players, and three-quarters of the Bristol City side that played in League One.

They'll never have a better chance to consolidate either: Manchester clubs, Chelsea, two-thirds of Tottenham's side, and a handful of blokes from Liverpool and Arsenal aside, the Premier is god-awful these days.

... and before any Dingles that lurk here (and there are several) start with the bitter jibes, it goes without saying that the likely scenario that Walsall finish reasonably comfortably away from the relegation zone says a lot more about the quality of League One than it does about us.

Bloody state of football in 2017.

Don't worry everyone, as soon as prem clubs see what a good manager Nuno is, they will be on the poach and he will be off to bigger and better things and take most of the decent players with him :wink:
