Seem to remember Mark saying that it's a cheese eating surrender forum, so I think that theoretically we don't have to follow the English laws stopping people from referring to the Man Utd and Wales footballer that has been shagging Imogen Thomas.

Seems that a Man City/England/former Aston Villa midfielder also has an injunction out, although that could just be the old wives of Twitter getting together. Apparently for porking the same lass too.

That doesn't narrow it down enough.

I must say I'm a bit dissapointed that Wigan still haven't been relegated. They really are a waste of a Premier League space.

Yes the forum is hosted in Paris, but it's not that simple. I own the forums and I'm in England therefore English law applies.

I know, its crazy isn't it.

Football clubs seem to always looking for short term answers.

But look at Man U with Sir Alex, and how long the Barcelona core has been together and you see success can't just be created. It does need a few seasons of consistancy to get the best out of players.

Most teams would give their right arms to finish 2nd in the league and have won 2 major trophies in 2 years, with a couple of decent runs in the champions League.

Our manager has been at the club for 5 season now (appointed June 2006). The scary thing is how those 5 years don't seem to be that much, yet there are only 7 current managers in the league who have been at their club for longer. That's an amazing statistic really, only 5 managers from 92 clubs have been given more than 5 years at their club!!

Edit: Jaysus! Get this too, average durations for managers in the league:
Barclays Premier League 3.58
npower Championship 1.54
npower League One 1.65
npower League Two 1.68

Across all leagues for the last 5 seasons the average is 1.90!!!
