Finnaldo Posted 26 April 2015 Share Posted 26 April 2015 That's what I thought, I hate it when these pundits, bloggers etc think that football only started with Sky. It is odd, they've seemed to have almost censored the top league records before the Premier League and started again. Perhaps to prove a point that it's a different entity to the old First Division? Strange really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl the Llama Posted 26 April 2015 Share Posted 26 April 2015 (edited) It is odd, they've seemed to have almost censored the top league records before the Premier League and started again. Perhaps to prove a point that it's a different entity to the old First Division? Strange really. Add to that pundits' insistence on using the term "this league" or "this competition" instead of "football" to say things like "this league can throw out lots of surprises" as though there's something about the specific competition which adds a new element to the global rules of football. I don't think I've followed a single competition where variations of this line haven't been uttered at some point.

I wish fans of other teams would do their research before posting comments. All the time, I see people say things that aren't true about us. Like a Stoke fan yesterday on reddit saying Ulloa & Kramaric cost us 20m and have only scored 6 goals between them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know our game would be subject to an experiment, but as the_quoon said on the message board last night, Leicester's Esteban Cambiasso. the former Argentine international and Inter Milan midfielder, was having more influence on the decision making than Taylor. For clarity, it was Taylor that gave this one and Cambiasso who took the kick, which found some of the Leicester fans in the stand. :crylaugh: Edited 27 April 2015 by talking_goldfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lgfualol Posted 27 April 2015 Share Posted 27 April 2015 (edited) They're (burnley fans) are right about Cambiasso though, I remember him furiously getting into the face of the ref to give Burnley a penalty when Taylor fell over..

How many goals have we scored recently? burnley aside that couldn't be more wrong a view. spurs, west ham, west brom & some of swansea were the most open games i've seen in a while, hence scores like 2-1 (missed pen and post hit, could've been about 7-4), 3-2, 3-4 etc. we can score and until the last two games we couldn't defend.
