Yorkshire vis-a-vis premier league football

[sweetdexter 10]

It is a sorry state of affairs for Yorkshire teams.

When Leeds go down ,if United dont make it to the P league,we will have one team from Yorkshire.

Lancashire could have five at least.

The midlands could have four.

I ran out of fingers on one hand counting the London teams.

At least Wednesday will stay in Div; 2.

I guess we will all have to cheer for Middlesbrough

Correct me if I'm wrong but if Leeds go down and SUFC don't go up then there will be no Yorkshire teams in the Premiership!

 

Where are you getting your one from?

[sweetdexter 10]

I know Middlesborugh is north but it is still in Yorkshire,Unless they have changed the County boundries

EDIT: doesn't matter

Yeah I'm afraid they did change the county boundaries about 30 years ago! Middlesbrough is in Cleveland.

 

And as far as Lancashire temas go there are Bolton and Blackburn. Liverpool and Everton are Merseyside. Man U and Man City are, errr, Greater Manchester.

 

Anyway will any self respecting Wednesday or United fans be cheering on Leeds in the Premiership if they stay up just cos they are the only Yorkshire team left?

I left the old sod 38 years ago,to live over the pond in Canada.

Is Limey land still sitting off the mainland of Europe?

I was not aware Clevland was a county,and here I was cheering for Middlesbourgh thinking it was a Yorkshire team.

WHAT IF WIGAN???????? MAKES IT INTO THE PREM; LEAGUE?
