Definitely getting too southern. Most people seem to fancy Fulham to come up as well.
The north could be losing another with Hull too.
That'd mean 7 teams inside the M25 and 3 on the south coast.
Newcastle Burnley Man Utd Man City Liverpool Everton
Stoke Leicester WBA
Swansea
Watford Arsenal Spurs Chelsea West Ham Palace Fulham
Brighton Bournemouth Southampton

What about a premier league north and south then? Does it matter where teams are from? Can't stand teams from all areas. What next - too many teams with red in their colours?!

Better a London club than the likes of Sunderland, Middlesbrough and Swansea as it's a dead easy direct train which is cheap as chips if you book in advance as well.

Yet there are a big fat zero from the white rose county of Yorkshire and there haven't been for a while. For that reason of geographical balance I think it would be good to see Wednesday or Huddersfield make it this time.

Would like to see Sheffield Weds or Huddersfield come up to add some more balance.

Shame they've been drawn against each other in the semi though. Would love a guaranteed Yorkshire team coming up.

Everytime been to Craven Cottage its been glorious and that walk from Putney through park is so unlike a Pl away day

The Cottage does make it very special (but please let us have Fredericks to replace Johnson)

Because, The very few times I've been down there
Ive absolutely hated every single thing about the place
e.g
the prices the driving the annoying accents the general - 'fuck you' always - attitude and 'red' double yellow lines were invented there (apparently)
'no stopping at any time for anyone', just about sums the place up for me
supposed to be our capital
and, its some fucker elses, thesedays - Im afraid to say
I'll leave it at that

We used to have 3 clubs in historical Staffordshire in the top tier and still have 2, which is punching above our weight. That's 1 per half a million population, which is "better" than London, which have 1 club per > a million. So southerns could argue there are too many in "Staffordshire"!

I knew Wolverhampton is/was in Sattfordshire but I wasn't so sure about Smethwick. West Bromwich was in Staffordshire when I was a lad/young man, just inside the border with Warwickshire, which Birmingham was in. The borders were quite odd in the "black country"; part of Worcestershire (Dudley) used to be inside Staffordshire! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Bromwichen.wikipedia.org/wiki/County_Borough_of_Dudley
