Well done Bolton!
Whilst I am an ardent GOONER I have got to say that Bolton deserved the win tonight! We were never that threatening and were out played at times. Now a 10 point gap to close, oh sh*t!

So annoying that the title is now Chelsea's to lose.
I'd rather have Man U or Arsenal win it ahead of Chelsea, cos without the Russian, they'd still be getting beat off crappy teams in Europe like they used to.
And no, it's not jealousy, I just think they have bought the title with the Russians money. Great if you support them, ****e for the rest of us. Going to do football no good IMO.

Depends how you view football IMO
From a competetive level its true, you're not going to see 6 domestic teams battle it out with the title decided on the final day.
But in terms of viewing quality, we've never had it so good. You don't need to wait 4 years to see the pinnicle of football anymore, you now get the cream of the game every champions league.
From somebody who wants to see the best quality football played between 2 teams, I've never had it so good. I've watched Spanish footy on SKY for the last few seasons - Real v Barca is fantastic, even if Real have lost it over the last season.
I hate to say it but Chelsea are a must watch team, as are Arsenal but neither gets my juices going like Barca ATM. You could probably argue that some domestic teams are better than the best national sides at the mo.

Still proud to be a Gooner, what we have done over recent years, with small crowds and a good Manager is fantastic.

They're good to watch, but I don't like the fact that the league is theirs.
And it is theirs.

Up the ****!
Whoever you support you should always be proud to do so, I have seen so much crap written about Arsenal, Man Utd and Chelsea, and most of it is bollox!
There does seem to be a lot of Chelsea fans crawling out of the woodwork right now though.
As for Man Utd, so many fans, and most of them have never seen them play.
COME ON YOU GUNNERS, only ten points, we can still win it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course you can, about as much chance as Utd, it's gone, Chelsea will not lose 4 of their last 15 unless it goes seriously wrong and with the best squad in the Prem I doubt very much 23 players will lose their bottle, sorry that's 24 now
