To some extent they're living in the past but I can understand their frustration. Imagine if your club was a European regular, you'd won countless trophies and still had crowds approaching 60,000 every home match but your best players were poached by relative minnows from a neighbouring country. They're obviously a huge club with a massive fan base but restricted by their league. It must be annoying.
I understand, But you if you base the club size on largely revenue based.
Brighton would be a far bigger Club. Not Minnows I.e 60,000 Celtic fans still won't bring in anywhere near the revenue Brighton get each week.

Sutton is and really always has been one of those passive aggressive pundits. Balanced views are not in his journalistic repertoire. He's basically biased and not afraid to say something for 'stir up' effect. I don't like him and his predictions on a week by week basis really aren't that accurate ir reasoned. But then the BBC employ the likes of him and Linekar which shows the bar is set pretty damn low.


Still buzzing from yesterday!

Sutton is deliberately controversial, but what's Lineker done to upset you? Seems like a decent man and his easy presenting style on MOTD is better than anything you'll find on commercial channels...

Our revenue is huge because we are lucky enough to be based in England.

And theirs is reasonable because they're lucky enough to play in a league where there's no competition, so they win everything.

What baffles me most is the amount of people who can't spell "Lineker". The guy is one of the most famous football products our a country has produced and a major TV presenter who's been in the public eye since the late 70s.

It's. Not. Linekar.

Anyway, Sutton is one of those pundits who's actually quite funny on air, but total dross in written form.

Was hoping someone involved in negotiations demanded a remake of the McGhee / Strachan interview at Burgess Hill driving range as it was box office backing the day

I know and i’m amazed how many people think Wain Linekar is related to him!!

Looking at Matt’s Wiki page he is quoted as saying “I do feel quite Danish. My mum is Danish I like bacon and I can speak a decent amount and I can understand a very good amount. In that sense, I don't think it is out of the question at all. If I did get a call up from Denmark, I don't think I'd be saying no".

Now I know he says he can speak a decent amount of Danish but no being able to say no surely is basic stuff I have just looked it up to help no in Danish is ingen pronounced ing

That’s harsh. My mum was Italian but I’m English. I have a love for Italy though and if they had come a calling ?
It would have been a wine drinking contest though.
