I've been thinking about adopting a new team in the Premiership next season after three seasons watching West Ham. Things were looking good for Everton with the Wayne Rooney signing, but they keep losing the players I liked. Ross Barkley is now part of the exodus.

If you're looking for another English team, come down into the Championship instead. Things are much less stressful there. At Derby County, for instance.

/You are one of those billionaire Americans wanting to buy a team, aren't you?

Sadly, he is no longer a 1 percenter. All the lucrative SpoFi banner ads for single Filipino women that were once so bountiful are gone from my page loads, poof, vanished. There goes the revenue stream. It is as though Tebow or Pence took charge of the monetization program and wrung the carnal intrigue right out of it.

These days, if I want to have any interaction whatsoever with women from the Philippines, I have to call ExxonMobil customer service.

Being a man of science, rcade will most assuredly choose Crystal Palace as the right and proper 11 to root for.

We hate the Brighton and Millwall scum,
We are South London's number one

See? Science!
