No, for that to be true, I'd have to be wrong about everything else. I was right about AJ being injured all season, I was right about it being insane going into the season with just Austin and the Fulham cripples, I'm right about the lack of pace at CB meaning we can play a compact formation, i was right about both hughes and redknapp, You just can't take the fact that I and others said all those things long before they happened.
I never said "I told you so" until now because you just posted so much bollocks that I had to disprove it.
So what you are saying is you expect us never to concede all season and win every game 1-0?
It didn't take a genius to figure out the clean sheet run would stop and our lack of scoring would mean wed get a lot more draws and losses.
Knowing that, wouldn't it have been prudent to sort out our total lack of goalscoring?
Oh and no, I'm not glad were losing so I can be proved right, I know that will come from you very soon, fair play to everyone else for not going down that route.
I'm finding it hard to sift out any legitimate points from this.

These weren't your own personal pearls of wisdom, every man & his dog saw and cited this stuff- myself included. In fact the first place I saw mention of a lack of pace at CB was in one of Clive's articles.
You're right, people DID see things before they happened. So far before they happened...that they were seeing something that didn't exist yet. I'm going to go out on a limb and say our next manager will be rubbish- then remind you of this prediction when we lose a couple of games under him. See, I can do it too!
It's yet to be seen how Redknapp will do this season- but I think he did a fantastic job in the summer turning a demoralised relegation side into one challenging for promotion. You often say this squad is too old for purpose...but then say it should be walking the league, as a stick to beat Arry with. Which one is it, because you can't have it both ways?
You've been saying the equivalent of "I told you so" on threads for days. Usually in the form of..."I said months ago...". Please point out the "so much bollocks" I've spoken though?
So what you are saying is you expect us never to concede all season and win every game 1-0?
Did you just have a complete brain freeze when you wrote this? How could you come to the conclusion that I expect us to do that? I said I'd happily start doing that again, because at the time you were saying everything was rubbish. No it wasn't- things were going well! How we wish we could string results like that together again!
4 strikers were bought in this window, wasn't that an attempt to fix the "total lack of goalscoring"?
I'm not sure Charlie's 15 can be called a "total lack" though. Nor was it preordained that the clean sheet run would dry up sufficiently to knock results. Obviously the consecutive game streak was gona end... But there was no reason we couldn't continue with a mean defence and get clean sheets 2/3 games. More than sufficient.
There's a lot of truth, of course, but it also has to be said that these threads can be interesting and instructive, particularly posts from members that have played or are playing the game at a reasonably high level.
