I cannot believe people think Sheffield United are going back up, let alone top 6. They are, like last season, awful at the back. They are even worse than us at defending set pieces. 15 points in the PL says it all.

They'll be closer to the bottom than the top from what I've seen. WBA on the other hand are looking very good.

Sheffield United will come good, think they'll make the playoffs.

Their goalkeeper is fcuking terrible, they need to address that very quickly.

I'm sure people said Sunderland would come good when they got double relegated too.

Love it. Another season of pointlessness and mediocrity beckons for them. Their supporters still think they are some sort of footballing super power. Bless.

Got more points than us. He has already managed one goal more than he got last season. I reckon they have as many fit senior players as us right now.

Bit of a football traditionalist I suppose, so didn’t really like seeing the West Brom players being able to use towels to dry the ball before their long throw ins.

Didn’t a fan in a game a few years ago steal the towel to stop it happening against his team?

I vaguely remember seeing it happen at Reading. I think it was when Gomes was in charge. The visiting team put towels by the side of the pitch but after they'd gone back in after their warm up I remember one of the backroom staff went and remove the them. When the ball first went out for a throw I watched the opposition player searching for the missing towel in vain - as is traditional he had to resort to using his shirt.

I seem to vaguely remember this as well.
