I'd like to think the new normal is the TV money is going to change things drastically (it already has: Stoke is poaching players from Inter f' Milan, WBA is keeping disgruntled 20M strikers out of spite). Every side is going to have the funds to keep players well into their mid 20s if they so choose too. A side like West Ham or LC who had a nice season would in the past get would get gutted in the offseason transfer market and today its easier for them to compete for a long while. On the other hand it should make it harder for the sides like Chelsea, Man City and Man Utd to dominate the league. Which you kind of see even this year. Yes Chelsea, man City and Utd have talent but they will lack the depth to field a B side that can run roughshod over the rest of the bottom 12 (who will be much more talented than a decade ago) while they play in Europe.

Despite the upstart sides we are much better equipped to make a run at the top of the table. On the other side, what's scary is that if you have a bad run of injuries, a bad manager and/or bad signings things could spiral out of control real quick. Even the promoted sides like Watford (firing Flores) aren't holding back and don't budget for a straight ticket back to the championship.

Hope so mate. Just feels like it will be harder than ever for us to do anything of interest.

To be fair to Damo here he is right.

He's relating the story of Billie Beane who didn't win anything of note but saying Leicester did do the winning.

And God knows I don't like sticking up for Damo.

Come again? The star of the film did NOT win the World Series. If there's something subliminal about that statement I'm not getting then you'll have to get the finger puppets out.
 

So on Saturday we have to line up on the pitch, and let the Leicester players walk through us onto the pitch.....Sound, we've been perfecting this Guard of Honour all season...

Six hours of talk sport? Your ears have my sympathy. That's what music and podcasts were invented for .

Any good boxing podcasts lad? I listen to the asylum but over the course of a few days I can't cope with it all in one sitting.
 
It'll be a great day on Saturday. All the Leicester fans will be out enjoying themselves, picking up the trophy and singing, and won't even be bothered when we beat them 3-0........ Can't wait for @chicoazul to write the prematch.........

I listen to the asylum as well . Hate that posh lads voice the beaut proper goes through me.
The boxing coalition is good . The boxing voice is not great but I listen anyway for a yank point of view .

Ringside is average I used to like buncey's but it's not been on for ages .

And I've find a few new ones I'm let to try

Bad left hook , below the belt , next big pod , and the boxing insight .
