Who do you want to win the League?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread

Apart from us that is? Just giving this some idle thought while listening to games on radio.

Arsenal - class players but whingers every one of them including Wenger

Liverpool - a more boring team you would never want to win the league.

Man U - we NEED a change

Leeds - ugh. Thug team with irritating manager.

Chelsea - Fancy dans. Nowt good to say about them.

Soooooooooo what I'm basically saying is that unless we win it, I'm not arsed who does.

Any other ideas?

NUFC to win or at least Champion's League, with Arsenal or Liverpool runer's up. If not us, then 1 Liverpool, 2 Arsenal, 3 Man U, 4 Leeds 5 Chelsea. Barring a collapse or lots of injuries, I don't think any of the others have any chance of getting above us now (Tottenham, A Villa etc), so I say we're going to be in the top 6 at worst

Well Lynda, being in Asia, if we don't win it, I don't care as long as it's not Man U or Liverpool. Can't stand those teams or their "we are the greatest team in the whole universe" fans.

I don't want any of them to win it really.

But probably Man Utd. They have the best players by quite a bit. It also shows that the other teams have made little progress whereas we would have rised quite a bit.

Essentially, anyone but ManU. For the reasons you have pointed out Lynda, I dislike them all. However, for the good of the PL as a competition we badly need someone other than ManU to win it.

The PL needs a change so I'm going for Arsenal as they are the least repulsive alternative to Man Utd.

If not us then I want Man Utd to win it again. Because I want Newcastle to be the team that denies Man.Utd the title. Because thats the way it will be seen. "The team that stopped Man Utd" If Arsenal win it this year, then Liverpool next year and then Nufc the next year It wouldn't be as special as it would to see our name on that cup after a huge run of Man. Utd

It has to be United.

(Anybody who thinks I don't mean us should say 3 "Hail Shearers" and write out 5000 lines "There's only one United - NEWCASTLE")

Jonno, Oliver Holt thinks United will win tomorrow. Bet he's the only punter who does ;0)

Well obviously UNITED will will tomorrow - unless it's a draw of course :)

Andy Townsend on the Premiership said United would win 2-1!

Easier to say who I don't want to win the league: Man U, Leeds, any London team. Obviously NUFC would be the best choice :-)

If it's not us then I really don't care.
