Peter Beardsley, on the legends, 6 years to break top 4

[Guest optimistic nit]

whats with all this "top 4" talk recently? its embarrassing as hell. we've just avoided relegation and there's about 4 or 5 teams ahead of us in the "potential top 4" line.

 

Exactly, if only everyone would realise this there would be no mountain being made out of a mole hill.  Though I'm sure the press would still be doing there best to build everest out of it..

 

i'm pretty sure noone was talking about top 4 before keegan mentioned it.

Allardyce reckoned it would take 5 and was slaughtered for it.

Not under Allardyce it wouldn't.

Ever heard of "infinity" ?

Besides which - as someone else said he put us back a few years for a start.

Allardyce didn't put us back a few years like. I'm not suggesting for one minute he took us forward or was the man to do so but the club he took over was in a pretty shit state. We stood still under him if anything.
