    progression
    noun
    1. 1.
      the process of developing or moving gradually towards a more advanced state.

    Season League League League Level W D L Goals+/‑ Points
    20/21 Premier League First Tier 12 9 17 46:62 ‑16 45 12
    19/20 Premier League First Tier 11 11 16 38:58 ‑20 44 13
    18/19 Premier League First Tier 12 9 17 42:48 ‑6 45 13

    So in the first season he regresses. Same position but 1 less point and much worse goal difference.

    Second season he is one position higher and same points but worse goal difference than the season before he joined.

    No. I have to say season on season I’m not really seeing progression from when he joined. Care to help. :)

    But don’t worry if we only look at the final result of last season and then pretend that that is the norm and extrapolate that over a full season then we should be World Club Champions within the next 2 or 3 weeks.

    :rolleyes:

    Just as I thought!

    Reads something he doesn't like, so he insults the person that wrote it, but then when faced with some very simple questions that's highlight a factual basis to back up my claim and he avoids answer




    I knew you wouldn't answer them.

    You're dishonest.

    I answered number 4. Read your question. Then read my answer. Now don’t deflect and admit you’re wrong.

    The others were very difficult and I’m still researching the replies. :p

    Now how about you being honest and also admit you’re wumming.

    No I asked you some very simple questions because you took exception to a claim I made.

    Why haven't you just answered them? Why have you instead tap danced around them like a child trying to make excuses for not doing his homework?

    I'll tell you why and it's because you simply cannot handle answering them and confronting yourself.

    Avoiding now as well as deflecting. Panic setting in.

    So had every other club.. Nufc still got out spent by nion every club including Sheffield United mate.

    It's just another excuse nufc fans have found to cover up their desperate witch hunt, but unfortunately that argument is flawed when you look at the numbers spent elsewhere...

    Let me know when Steve had 35 million more than the other clubs

    You're dishonest, so there's no point in debating with you.

    You never answer a straight question so what's the point?

    Newcastle fans for 2 years have been trying desperately to chase Bruce out and he's done better than rafa Benitez.

    They can now currently see the new set up progressing and performing better than they have for years, but of course they're just ignoring that and continuing to press fwd with their hate filled agendas.

    Rafa was in regression we'd dropped from 10th to 13th

    Bruce just finished 12th so we've progressed and therfore he's done better than rafa Benitez.

    It's not been all Bruce, but since Jones came in we've been the 10th best side

    So what's the issue now?

    The first 3 questions all leading to your 4th question which I answered directly. You are now in full retreat from your initial point given my educated response and will no doubt shortly deny you said it or that that was your point.

    You constantly claim your questions (which generally are irrelevant anyway) don’t get answered whilst busily avoiding answering anybody else’s questions. You couldn’t be wumming by chance, could you? Be brave, look in the mirror and say it “ I’m wumming everyone but doing it badly “ Believe me, you’ll feel better and cleaner.

    Clubs do not set targets about being 10th best over the second half of a season nor do managers. Proper Clubs and Managers set their targets at the start of the season for the full season. When did Fergusson ever say at the start of the season that if Man Utd were top at Christmas then it would be a good season? <laugh>

    Anyway I’ll leave you in peace to give you a chance to recover face. <whistle>

    They were very simple questions and you've been dishonest because you don't want to confront something that doesn't suit your narrative.

    If you answer the questions we can progress, but until then I'm afraid you will be going down in my estimation of you.

    Please don't let me down mate
