...then this little beauty in the Evening Standard today should comfortably dispell them.
Why it will be hell for Hull in the top flight
Dean Windass scores a Wembley goal at the age of 39 to put Hull into the Premier League. Great, and not so great. Good for him of course, but the idea of Windass turning out in the top flight next season at 40 is a joke.
As perhaps is the thought of Hull staying up barring a miracle; on an honest view they'll be lucky to get as many points as Derby did. Once you cut through the inevitable sentimentality about a small club's triumph, the truth is the Premier League as an internationally credible competition is damaged by such promotions. If the Championship can't throw up more credible candidates than Hull, then perhaps we should go back to two-up two-down again.
"the truth is the Premier League as an internationally credible competition is damaged by such promotions"
I suppose anyone outside of the top 4 is a bit of an embarrassment really arn't they Dave. I mean lets just cut to the chase here - the Premiership is about four teams nowadays, maybe not even that. Perhaps they should just play each other 20 times a season, and we can do away with these pathetic small clubs gatecrashing the party and cluttering up the place. Chelsea are far too big these days to bother with the likes of Hull.
How fortunate we are to have people of David Mellors vision and insight in our media.
