    err the same team we beat on the way to the final last year and yes 5 wins does make us one of europes elite.
    PS why people pay so much attention to the ****e "pundits" spout is beyond me.

    Im quite content with my balanced view tbh. As for the media...it's impossible not to pay it attention.

    Give Pellegrini time and he will improve WH. You'll always score goals but he'll make you solid and able to grind out results when needed imo. Just don't change manager any time in the next year regardless, he's a good manager.

    They don't define my thoughts but I think if you don't have a moan about the blinkered press then you're not right in the head

    Don't understand the reaction tbh. Yes, I'm gutted we've not won it (97pts and losing just one game deserves the title, wins all but the last two) but it was expected at the start of the day so hardly came out of nowhere. Maybe some believed in the miracle after midweek?

    It does seem a bit narrow minded to see wums trying to give us stick considering how much better with dove than their team but it was always going to happen because people will react, and they have!

    For the record, I didn’t give you any stick, I was just pissing myself at Wishi’s ridiculous angry post.

    Then Jenners waded in, pissed and emotional.......

    I see it’s now all about City buying the title and someone needs to change the rules lol.

    tbh we're more worried about him croaking than getting sacked, 'Mr Dead, 'the Walking Corpse' and 'coffin-dodger' are oft used to refer to him. He plays attacking football, which the fans like, and I doubt we'll be in any relegation fights, which the board and fans will like, so he's pretty safe from the tin tack. I think he gets paid a decent whack too, to be fair to G&S they hven't stinted on the wages they offer, so unless a big name comes in for him, I don;t think he'll get poached either.

    I was thinking more if you don't kick on and compete for Europa, or if you have a slow start. Oh and he's looked like he's going to croak it for about 15 years <laugh> I wouldn't worry there.

    I'm not knocking Liverpool. Not in any position to for starters given where we are. Really can't fault your season.

    I'm all too happy to rip the piss out of pundits and commentators who were desperately willing Brighton on though, but that's not a sleight on Pool just them ****s!
