Had a bet on to finish in the top half. After the Tottenham game the cash-out plummeted so I took it. Look like a damn fool now. :lol:

 

We've got Liverpool arsenal and City on the spin. We won't finish top half but it's nice to believe eh!

Who's going to do the Lord's work and dig out all the posts from fannies in December/January when we were already relegated.


[emoji38] Don’t think you can call anyone a fanny for saying we looked relegated in December or January like. We had no wins! [emoji38]

Could someone do the maths, please?

It would be nice to work out if everyone below us could still get above us, God I'm paranoid

I'm talking about the fannies that were saying we *were* relegated (insistent that "we're down" etc). Obviously it looked likely, but there was always a reasonable chance we'd manage to close the 5 point gap or whatever it was at its worst when Howe had more time and we made Jan signings - even if it meant pipping it by a point on the last day. Was always on the cards that a couple of wins could really change things - the thread was mental around then. Not that I expected it to go this well.

February, March and April too. People were worried we might not get another point three games/9 points ago. :lol:

 

 

 

Remember just before the Leeds away game the fannies had us getting stuffed 4 nowt and relegation a certainty.  I gave them loads of grief after that result.

For the record, in December I predicted at least 5 teams would finish beneath us.  I'm hopeless at digging out my history.

You’re not hopeless at blowing your own trumpet though.

In all fairness Howe had been a little while and things were not quite clicking and the squad overall looked like it needed totally replacing with some players looking like they were done.

 

Howe’s philosophy has gradually ingrained itself into the team. The players written off are fighting. The new singings clicked (well most of them).

Let’s not forget that in January, we lost at home to what is an average League One team. Of course people think the damage by Bruce and Ashley was too far gone to save us this season.

I have literally just had to remind myself of where we were when Bruce left & Howe arrived. Man alive, what a turnaround. It actually is phenomenal.
