The First Division will be called The Championship. The Second Division will be called The First Division. And Accrington Stanley will be called Accrington Joshua.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340519450159428760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16460150.post-1148029767983996112006-05-19T10:09:00.000+01:002006-05-19T10:09:00.000+01:00John Terry did.

And yes, it'd probably start with four British clubs in it. <BR/><BR/>Then they could rebrand the Premiership as the First Division again. Domestically, it'd be just like old times, but without four clubs.Mark Gamonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07545146140967396307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16460150.post-1147679255691828772006-05-15T08:47:00.000+01:002006-05-15T08:47:00.000+01:00The Premiership and the running joke that is The C...The Premiership and the running joke that is The Champions' League (I thought you had to win something to be a champion).<BR/><BR/>Good to see Accrington back. I remember the cup final of 1754 like it was yesterday.<BR/><BR/>Altogether now, lads:<BR/><BR/>We love you, Stanley, we do<BR/>Stanley, we do<BR/>Stanley, we do<BR/>Oh, Stanley we love you.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340519450159428760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16460150.post-1147659168968381022006-05-15T03:12:00.000+01:002006-05-15T03:12:00.000+01:00And Alf Garnett.Back to Mr Simm.

The rot started there.<BR/><BR/>Incidentally, now that Accy Stanley are back in the League, does anybody else harbour a secret wish that they'll play in knee-length shorts and non-metatarsal-risking hobnailed boots?Tim Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14681067872556519250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16460150.post-1147620598916395592006-05-14T16:29:00.000+01:002006-05-14T16:29:00.000+01:00Sorry about the sour grapes, Richard.

Just for one year.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad that Chelsea don't snap up all the good London boys. I don't know where we'd be now without the money earned from the sale of Cole, Lampard, Johnson and Ferdinand. <BR/><BR/>Didn't John Terry and Carlton Cole come through the Chelsea youth system?<BR/><BR/>Just found out that although we've got Noel, Russell and Leslie Grantham, ALFRED HITCHCOCK was a Hammer. That's made my day.Geoffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340519450159428760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16460150.post-1147613504594569522006-05-14T14:31:00.000+01:002006-05-14T14:31:00.000+01:00Oh Geoff, you gave the impression there wouldn't b...Oh Geoff, you gave the impression there wouldn't be any sour grapes. <BR/><BR/>Notwithstanding the fact that nearly all clubs have done similar, he's right. Chelski have done much it more than the others. Is there a single local lad playing for them who's come up through their youth system?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
