3-3 against Crystal Palace called, he'd like to know why you're revising history.

All teams get bad results and can bomb... but Pool weren't anybody's favourites for the title that year and look how close they came...

Personally I'm happy enough with the way we are playing under him and the progression and development of young talented players ... we've had some terrific entertainment since he came ...

... but no way can you compare Liverpool's missing out under Brenda to Keegan's Toon collapse ... now that was truly monumental ...
 
Yeah think that's my point, consistent performers over the last 6 years but as it stands the likes of Everton, Villa, Spurs, Arsenal are seen as bigger clubs even though they can't boast the same consistency and perhaps the same amount of teams on par.



Even Leeds are seen as a bigger club than Leicester, and no one likes Leeds.
 
Would say they are one of the top four clubs in PL. consistent performers. League winners. European football. Just don’t have that big name to attract top stars.

will always have the ‘big clubs’ taking be set players.

Everton and Carlo are 2-4 seasons behind them at the moment.



May that forever be your motto; Everton, 2-4 seasons behind Leicester.
 
Even Leeds are seen as a bigger club than Leicester, and no one likes Leeds.

Leeds could be massive if they get back to the heights of the Revie era in the 70s ...

We are happy enough with our place ... if we can maintain our competitiveness for the next 5 years then that would be great ... this season we have victories over Citeh, United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Spurs, Arsenal, Leeds and Villa ... pretty damn sure we have never achieved that in a single season in my lifetime ... and probably 50 years beyond that too <laugh>

Serious enough ... Liverpool blew the title due to Slippy G's slip not Brenda's management ... we came up short of Top 4 due to unprecedented injuries ... but we still got into Europe and may do so again ... despite the vastly superior buying power of those we are competing against ...

Suspect Toon and Mackems would give their right nut for that level of bottling ...<laugh>
have you looked at the league 1 table?

sunderland are doing their best to totally **** their season up...only 2 weeks ago we looked good for promotion, but now we'll be lucky to scrape the play offs.

****ing shambles, yet again.
