The Layman

Having seen his team battle to Premier League survival last season, Mark Hughes promised that QPR would never find themselves in a relegation dogfight again, whilst he was at the helm.

Last season was a good one for Newcastle United and their supporters, finishing 5th in the Premier League table, and a playing squad that played for one another and the manager, Alan Pardew.

Today when Alisher Usmanov publically criticised the Arsenal board for ‘lack of investment’, he made an interesting point.

When Reading were promoted as Champions to the Premier League in April, unsurprisingly players and fans were celebrating an incredible campaign, made all the more impressive after their Play Off final defeat a season earlier.

The 2012/13 SPL will not feature Rangers, who have won the competition seven times.

Big news in Norfolk today, as Grant Holt has agreed a new three year deal with Norwich City. The story probably won’t generated an awful lot lot of interest outside of East Anglia, but to fans of the Canaries it will probably mean an awful lot.

This could prove to be a controversial blog, as Luis Suarez is loved at Anfield and hated virtually everywhere else in the Premier League.
