Yeah did exactly the same too. Still not really an excuse because the players that I incorrectly suggested didn't play for these teams either!

To be fair, it only says the clubs are in random order three times at the top of the page

Chelsea
Liverpool
Everton
West Ham
Aston Villa
Nottingham Forest
Leeds
Sheffield Wednesday
Newcastle
Millwall (no YOU **** off)

Wednesday and Blades
Wolves and Villa
West Ham and Chelsea, I guess
prob find room for Leeds because everyone hates them though..

But yeah, the whole reason the league is such a brilliant model is there are so many "deserving" of a place and so many different narratives / rivalries.

Elite show but season 3 was ridiculous and terrible. Nick Cave song for the opener prob my favorite of any opening show ever. Not particularly a Nick Cave fan but that song for that show is so elite.

Hopefully season 4 delivers.

This is art more than science. Bolton and Blackburn are dreadful Lancastrian dungheaps that no civilised man should be encouraged to visit, and the top 20 there breaches the no three teams from the North East rule.

They'll be very tough to get, best approach is what you have planned but you'll have your work cut out.

Laverys is a decent spot to watch football /drink in beer garden/play pool etc. For a night out somewhere in cathedral quarter is your best bet for a decent and safe bar.

Restaurants in Belfast go to Home/Ginger/Mourne Seafood.

Dublin for football/sports go to the Living Room, it's a big sports bar right in City centre. Who are you travelling with and how long in each city?

I wouldn't bother with this tbh. Just left one of the sets and seen a tour bus pull up, best view they get is of the perimeter of all sets from a few hundred yards away...So basically you see **** all.

I'd head to the ground this evening for definite vader, try the bus park first imo, then the nearest pub.
