Another big day has arrived then!
Well today brought the curtain down on the PREMIER LEAGUE 09/10 season - and what a season it's been. By a mile, the best Premier League season we've ever seen - even if it did result in the ribbons on the trophy being the wrong colour.
It ruly has been one hell of a season. Go back to August. Who saw Portsmouth being in real trouble, having four owners in a season, points penalties and then having to sell all their big players, and thus finish bottom of the league? Who saw Hull getting relegated after last season's performance? Who saw Birmingham finishing in the top part of the league, or Liverpool only just scraping into the Europa League? And the biggest shock of the season - who saw the Tottenham-Man City game deciding who would qualify for the Champions League next season?! It's been a season filled with spills, thrills and total football.
And some of these games have been astonishing. Tottenham scoring 9 against Wigan was some performance, especially seeing as all the goals came in one half. The Manchester derby early in the season was possibly the best game of football I've seen this season - and the best derby of all time. Especially with a Liverpool turncoat scoring the winner for us. Even the forementioned City-Spuds game was absolutely class, and showed why they were really up there.
But Chelsea scoring 7 goals on 3 different occasions and 8 today proved they were worthy champions. Even if they are a shocking, cheating team, with some vulgar players, they've outplayed everyone this season, and deserve the trophy.
United need to build, build, build this summer, and be drastic with the team changes. As do Arsenal and Liverpool. City will just spend, and Spurs will just hang on.
But Newcastle and West Brom come up next season, and I wouldn't like to say who will go down either. It will be even more of an unpredictable season next year than this.
Am I ready for the 2010-11 season?
You betcha.
PREMIER LEAGUE 09/10, you are the Day Dedicatee for Sunday 9th May 2010.
(P.S. I said at the beginning it was a big day - today is the next big announcement over the plans for the next year or so of the blog. We have the World Cup blog until July, and then something will come in as a filler - probably with me taking a couple weeks off from blogging every night! But the big announcement is that of another blog....
As of next season, I'll be blogging about the Premier League season. every Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Wednesday, or whenever games take place, I'll be covering them in my own 'unique' way. I have to be putting together a portfolio, and being the lucky bugger I am, have guaranteed quite a handy domain, so happy days!
World Cup Wonder, Day Dedication, Premier League XIX. Goodbye, and thankyou for watching.)
