You must care a little if you feel compelled to tell people how little you care in the first place? Otherwise you'd just do it surely? Personally, nothing against 'Boro but I used to work with one of their fans and it's a great shame for me that I won't be able to rub it thoroughly in his face...

Someone clearly dodged the media handling class...if it's him.

Hard to argue too much with that, though Abraham and Murray could both consider themselves unlucky not to feature.

Nigel Adkins would be a close runner up surely (aside from him being utterly toss in the first place)?

Why change a winning formula? I'm not saying it's the only reason we went up, but it definitely is.

I genuinely forgot that COG was still our player. Wonder where he'll end up next year.

Could see the logic if we were going to play Arsenal this season but after a summer of (probable) rebuilding and potential managerial change Arsenal next year could be a very different team to how they are now. I dont' know where the line is drawn for what counts as a big team but I'd be...

It wouldn't surprise me if he was given the armband in the summer as he's likely to be guaranteed (or near as damn it) a place in the starting XI of most matches next year (Bruno, possibly not) and he has the potential to be a long term fixture at the club. The only possible reason not to (and...

That little sequence is burnt into my brain now. The signings I've made over the years...

In the squad definitely, but probably not in the starting 11. Much as I love the man, I'm not sure he'd be able to keep up with PL wingers. Clichy would be a great one but would he make enough of a difference to justify presumably huge wages and, sadly, he's likely to have a number of offers...

Lawrence, Cairney and Shelvey for starters (though I really really don't like him). Abraham would be nice but I suspect Chelsea would want a fair bit for him.

At a guess, 9m up front with clauses attached (another 2-3m if we stay up for example).

This with all the bells on.

As someone on the cusp of the dreaded 30's, that graph hammers home that I've been an Albion fan throughout one of the most 'interesting' periods in the club's history. Bottom division to top, numerous stadiums and a plethora of decent (and bloody awful) managers/players. Wouldn't change it...

I think Groundspeople would be the acceptable catch-all there. Or, for those that don't identify as people, Turf Maintenance and Replenishment Engineers.

Embarrassed is probably a bit much but they were made favourites in pre-season for a reason. If they somehow balls it up and miss automatic (or, heaven forbid, promotion) then I think embarrassing might be about right

I think you're forgetting the 3rd option; - Discussion around Newcastle screwing up - 'Well done Brighton, been close last two years, nice stadium, good job Hughton' - Chat around Newcastle's remaining chances - Blah blah Pompey blah for the remainder

He's probably lacking the name/profile but if Koeman leaves Everton for a certain Spanish club in the summer then...well, it's possible.

Chris Sutton commenting on us at some point, miserable sod.

Is there a chance that the required standards have changed since the stadium was built?
