    Yeah decent finishes. The big lad up top has looked a handful every time I’ve seen you lot of late. When did you buy him?

    If you thought Bournemouth were small time you’ve seen nothing.

    He's been like that forever, the problem is his hamstrings go a lot, once he and Fab got injured we dropped down the league like a stone.

    Is it really comment worthy? Surely it's going to be generally the case.

    In other news apparently West Ham have won 100% of the games this season which have finished with them in the lead.

    A stat that raises more questions than it answers. What happened in their 19th last 3-0 at HT game?

    Perhaps a more relevant example is that in February Moyes was 2-0 up HT at home to Brighton and #bottledit 3-3 FT

    If you can't average 1 point / game you should go down no matter where you finish IMO

    He’s always had a decent eye for a player Moyes. His record in the transfer market with us was remarkable in hindsight.

    So you’d end up with more sides going down to be replaced with championship sides, and yet this would somehow improve the quality of the league?

    Yeah right oh.

    Yes a team with fewer than 38 points is trash and could probably be improved by a Championship side.

    Plus teams would try harder if they needed their own results even if a few other teams were worse.

    Only Norwich won the Championship last season.

    So your argument kinda dies there.

    Norwich is a scam club. They planned to be relegated. Probably bet their payroll on it happening.
