Fulham the form team everyone expects to go up.

No chance.

Villa v Derby in the final with a Villa win. Everyone to **** buckets over how brilliant a manager Steve Bruce is despite leading the most expensively assembled squad in the division to a measly fourth place again.

But getting them promoted, again. Would be the 5th time he's done it.

What a **** record.

Not denying it's a decent record, but put it in context, look at the resources he's had to do it with. Finishing outside the top two is a poor season given the circumstances, same as it was with us.

Pretty much the equivalent of Celtic finishing fourth in the silly pointless league.

We came second under Bruce with jay Simpson as our main striker and Mcshite and Alex at the back

That was a decent season and a commendable effort. We actually still had the second highest spend in the league that season (probably due to wages we were still lumbered with from the Duffen era?) with quite some margin over third.
