    It's still better to have beaten Manchester City and lost to Southampton than

    t'other way about, I reckon.

    Two games, Three points Shrug

    With everyone beating everyone this season your argument has less weight, OK perhaps a little.. but not much

  3. #3

    Sure, but nobody is suggesting we're not good enough to beat Southampton,

    but we have had a longstanding issue with games against our rivals, the so called Big Games.

    By the way, this has nothing to do with where the title will end up; that wasn't going to be decided this week, in any case.

    We're not even halfway through the season yet these media knobjockeys are acting like it's the

    run in..

    I say, that lot down the road are looking worryingly consistent, aren't they..

    Still not really the point though is it. It doesnt really matter who we beat

    The issue is whether we can get past 80 points for the first time in ten years.

    What we are basically seeing is exactly the same as the last two seasons. Same problems, same injuries, similar points, same inconsistency.

    So, 74-78 points, between 5 and 10 points short of the champions and finishing between 2nd and 4th depending on how crap the others are.

    Makes it all hardly worth bothering with.

    Yeah, it is. We'll get lucky one season and play well enough to win the league.

    In lieu of all that, it's about who and where we are as a football club and team.

  7. #7

    Well... Where we are as a team is exactly where we were two or three years

    Ago.

    And where we are is never going to be good enough to win the league.

    Right. Except that we can now occassionally beat our Top Four rivals.

    And anyway, your 74-78 points may very well be good enough this season
