You can get 2/5 on Man City to win in 90 mins. How much are you putting on?

That's what they said about Sunderland in 1973, Southampton in 1976, Coventry in 1987 and Wimbledon in 1988.

Saw the first ad for the Prem games on NBC over the weekend too. Well actually heard it - 'Vindaloo' was playing which got my attention :thumbsup:
