Will you still watch the Premier League if we go down?

[Guest]

Yeah probably. I watch it for entertainment and I find watching good teams and good players entertaining. We've been in my opinion one of the worst teams to watch for a while now so it's not like the league is going to be worse for our absence.

The awful FA cup game put me off watching their two league games  It was just a game of who could could get 11 men behind the ball the quickest.

 

Give me some brexit balls down the channel for a speed demon to whip in crosses for a 6'4, 25 stone brick layer.

Even non league isn’t like that anymore, the championship isn’t what it was. Most sides (badly) play short possession games.

[Gazza M]

No, I only really watch the league we are in at the time, apart from League 1 as not a great deal of coverage. 

[SheppyFox]

No. 

[MPH]

No way. Right now I have to pay for a subscription service here in North Carolina but there’s no point of City are not in it as I will have to find some way of  paying for something to watch us in the championship. I already have to bribe the kids as it is for me to get the remote to watch city games so I won’t manage that for other teams’ games aswell

[Deano79]

Only ever watch Leicester so no !! 

[ChrisFilter]

Premier League is for willy pullers. Championship ‘til I die 👏 

[PhillippaT]

Depends if my wife wants to go back to supporting Arsenal again... (Probably.)  (I don't think it'll ever feel 'right' to support them, though  )

[nnfox]

I might watch some games if some of our current players are playing, just to see how they shape up in different teams.  But if I miss the game, c'est la vie.

I bet half the people saying no watched the Man City - Arsenal game the other day. It’s the best league and best ‘product’ in football.

 

The Championship is rubbish in comparison, I’m not watching bottom half fodder play each other 

I disagree. It might have the best players, but the best football matches come from two quite evenly matched teams giving it a good go against each other. Whatever the level. I've seen under eleven games that I've enjoyed way more than some Premier League matches.

[Sampson]

I used to watch match of the day but not the individual games when we were in the championship and league one previously. Will probably be the same again 

[mucfox]

next season everyone, who's interested in PL football, should watch Brighton & Hove, enjoying their moves and skills.

wrong word

[Tuna]

Yeah, probably.

[WigstonWanderer]

I generally find it difficult to watch matches when I don’t have a ‘horse in the race’, so probably won’t be interested in the PL, especially when it’s such a rigged competition from the financial perspective.

 

I’ll be watching as many of our Championship matches as I can stream from behind the sofa though, hoping we don’t fall straight through.

[smudger63]

No, i only ever have an interest in the league we are playing in. I actually really enjoyed our season in league one, it was something different. Proper football clubs, with proper fans, many of them, who knew league one was probably about as good as it would get for them, but had stayed with their team, and didn't go and support a glory team. I wouldn't have wanted to stay in there for more than that season though, and wouldn't want to go back there either!

[Hamilton Fox]

Probably highlights but will annoy me any players that leave here end up playing well for the likes of villa 

[Captain...]

I dunno, I barely watch any games other than ours at the moment, but that's probably because we're so bad it's just depressing watching other teams. I guess it will depend on how well I'm doing in fantasy football.

 

At least Match of the day can't be ruined if we get relegated.

[Frank Large's Black Book]

I don't watch the prem now.  Can you name 5 reasons why I ought to?

It'll be tedious?

Don't you think it already is?

No. In the last 7 games Man City have overhauled an 8 point Arsenal lead to be 4 points ahead and lead the league. 4 teams are almost neck and neck for two relegation spots.  The two front runners for the champions league are showing signs of choking whilst the nearest challenger keeps on winning. It’s not tedious at all, you either have no imagination or read the daily mail 

[Leeds Fox]

I don’t think I’ll bother even if we stay up (which we won’t). 

[JonnyBoy]

Debating wether to pay for sky next year as is expensive, I wouldn’t bother if I wasn’t into F1. Going to be weird watching prem teams when we aren’t in it 

[TMELcfc]

Yeah as I won’t be watching us - well if most this mercenary bunch stay here anyway

[Heskey2011]

No

[Koke]

I've been watching Premier League even when we were not in it so yes I'll probably watch it casually. It's impossible to not follow it anyway with all the coverage it gets.

[CyprusFox]

No
