Who Are The ‘Premier League’ Clubs?

Published on February 17, 2013 By Matt Wooding

Watching the FA Cup you often here lower league clubs described as Premier League clubs, not in current league status but in historical context. This got me to thinking, who are the biggest and most historic clubs in England who would be considered as Premier League club as presumably there can only be 20. Obviously [...]

English Premier League Season Preview

Published on August 17, 2012 By Matt Wooding

The Premier League is less than 24 hours away and the time has come for me to ruin seasons before they start with this seasons predictions. With so many clubs having different managers to start the season this is the toughest season yet to predict what will happen. As with previous seasons I will review [...]

English Premier League Preview – Part Three

Queens Park Rangers What Matt Thinks: QPR didn’t live up to their status as the world’s richest club this summer, in fact their transfers barely lived up to a club of Premier League status. Neil Warnock has assembled a squad reminiscent his Sheffield United team and I think they will suffer the same fate. Adel Taarabt will [...]

English Premier League Preview – Part Two

Fulham What Matt Thinks: Fulham have again changed managers over the summer but have again stuck with much the same squad.

Is the Premier League too Physical?

Published on March 17, 2011 By Matt Wooding

There have been a number a leg breaking tackles seen this season alone in the Premier League, not to mention those of last season. The most recent example being Jamie Carragher’s effort on Nani’s shin, which thankfully didn’t result in any serious damage. Nani has come out and criticized Carragher’s tackle as ‘not football’, just [...]

Only three days to go until the greatest football league in Europe is off and running for the new season, and that means previews and predictions.
