Never to the dark side Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Before the next international break we will be playing four teams that have been in the top flight. Lets hope our team can forget THEIR top flight status, and its just eleven against eleven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major Isewater Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Just because of the quality of players that are still with the club from their time in the Prem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoystonFoote'snephew Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Do we fear them? They might be teams that were packed with Premier league players but they ain't now, those players saw them relegated. Don't know if Lloyd will start tonight but he's a lucky boy if he does. He should have been sent off (twice) at Watford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Across the 92 clubs, how many have experience of being in the Premier? Wouldn't be surprised if it's close to half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFCinNW6 Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 Better players more attractive in the recruitment process More sophisticated game plans More money Better facilities = tougher opposition. That’s why. It’s pretty simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be surprised if it's close to half. Just quickly flicking through I think it's 48. So yes, more than half but that's including all the current prem teams of course. I didn't include Wimbledon or MK Dons, so if you did include one of those perhaps 49. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked like Brentford would be the "50th but 50th club to have at least one season in the Premiership League" could yet be us (but likely won't be).

pillred Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 But there are teams that hadn't been in the premier league for donkeys years like Leeds and Wolves, and yet we still had what seemed like an inferiority complex against them which to me made me feel like the players had already expected to lose just because of their past glories.

Merrick's Marvels Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 We don't (fear them). And if we should lose tonight, it won't be because anyone's afraid. Next question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
