If you see it on tv, you are not watching your team play. You are merely watching what the director wants you to see and effectively watching the ball and whoever is near the ball.

Sounds very familiar to what you do when you are playing.... :lol:
:lol:

Well played!

The ego has landed. Villa used to be a proper football club too, shame.

Leeds Update

Hadi Sacko and Pontus Jansson's stays have been made permanent after successful loan spells last season, signing from Sporting Lisbon and Torino respectively.

Polish midfielder Mateusz Klich completed a reported £1.5m move from FC Twente last month, while the club also paid around £500,000 to sign Werder Bremen's first-choice goalkeeper in Felix Wiedwald.

Youngster Madger Gomes also joined after leaving Liverpool and more additions are likely to follow

Building nicely on last years squad only major outs possibly Barkley and Taylor

Couldn't care less about the jock players. Hopefully, they'll get independence soon as we can push them all back to the Euro Disney League.

Why do you continue to reply to these people. They haven't watched their teams in the past 12 months. They shouldn't be posting here, yet you are encouraging them by engaging.

Exceptional point.

However, by letting him know he may remember which team he supports and watch them (albeit it on tv) and ultimatrly they may actually go and watch their side.

All the results were close in the first round which could mean a very tight season ahead in the Championship.

Still, it's disappointing you haven't the discipline to stand by your beliefs. I am not surprised by this.

Sadly we have only brought in one player in the summer and according to the supporter forum page the club is restricted as we apparently close to the FFP limit. Amazing PSG can spend 196m pounds and haved no issues.
