I normally laugh at how paranoid our fan base gets about the press, but saw a Sky clip earlier where they were talking about how last years top 3 got on this weekend.  You honestly couldn't make it up.

3rd place Liverpool finished 9 points behind 1st and 14 ahead of us in 4th. We finished 2 points ahead of fifth. Their goal difference was -17 on the top two - ours was -30 on them.

It's okay to talk about a top 3 from the 23-24 season.

I get that, but do you think they’d be talking about the “top 3” if we finished 3rd and Liverpool were 4th? I’m not saying they definitely wouldn’t but it seems unlikely.

Maybe not, maybe yes. I'd guess not, but it's wholly hypothetical.

Do you think they'd be talking about a top 3 after Gameweek 1 if Man U Chelsea or Spurs finished 4th instead of us on exactly the same goals and points as we did?  Of course they wouldn't.  I'm pretty relaxed about this sort of stuff, but it's a laughable suggestion.

When Leicester won the Prem league there was quite a bit of focus more on Spurs losing the league. Spurs finished third that season! Even some seasons after in media talk pundits say Spurs should have won the league that season. I’ve never heard that about a team over a league season only ever in a match. There was a media bias from bits I recall to say Spurs should have won it.
It’s also the painful relegation season so all that stuff was not much interest to me yet it was noted.

Oh heavens !
Maybe if I had requested no bawdy comments then this would never have happened!

This is fascinating to see such reactions to the West Ham v Villa match!
Great fun!

[Louzie0]

Does anybody watch these commentators in real time, while the match is on?

I loved the reactions to Duran’s goal and the little dance from the WHam guy after the penalty. I think they’d all be a bit difficult to cope with, over 90 minutes.

I used to quite like it when Sky had it as a red button option during games. Think I only bothered when it was a match I wasn't too arsed about, though, ie not Villa.

I’ve seen bits of this on Twitter/X before now, but I don’t think I’ve enjoyed them as much as I have appreciated this selection. Thanks, Footy.

Well it’s good fun isn’t it with this snap shots of reactions as it were. Hope to include here in each round of games! And it’s always better when we win! Enjoy the season!

That Yanited fan I have seen before and I can not fathom wanting to watch him for 100 minutes, he is one weird dude. I can cope with a minute or so of seeing a numpty getting angry but a whole game? No chance.

Watching any Yanited fan for more than 3 mins ever would be too much. Over the last 70 years
