very early (for me)Easy mistake to make.

reads like a finger up to Ehab to me
There was a very "limp over the line" ending.The injuries were shocking that year. Not unprecedented and a league table showed us just above halfway. But all the teams above us in our mini league (Lester/ WBA/CP/ Sunlan West Spam etc) were well below us in the table. We also lost out marquee signing within a few mins of the season kicking off. It was weird how players bang in form would get injured..Jela had a fantastic start to the season, got injured, and that practically finished him. We had players in one position all going down at the same time, etc. Hats off to Bruce for never blaming injuries as the reason, but it was very significant.
Only anti Brucites could come up with the term 'poor promotion', I didn't realise there was such a thing. Our performances were poor at times and we lost to poor teams. That happens to a freshly relegated club. Still a good achievement going back up first time. Not great, but recall it was against the backdrop of the malaise the owners created (as was everything over the last few years). Had the owners not created that then who knows where the cub would be now.
yeah that was what I meantIt also sounds like a 'sell him and you can look for another manager' as well.
Unless that was what you meant.
preciselyI think so too. He's really asserted his control there by saying 'my'. Any such statement is normally 'we've decided / its our decision / the club has decided'.
For every messiah there are tens of billions of naughty boys.It seems we are signing players that have lost confidence, obviously have talent, and it just depends whether MS can turn their performances into confident ones. If he can do that then he is the messiah in my eyes, if he doesn't then he will be a very naughty boy.
Pepe's at the training ground now.
you looked at the odds about a day too late...should have lumped on us yesterdayI'm looking at odds on which club to make the most signings in January. Can one of the more informed members take an educated guess at home many you guys will sign?
I'm not looking at backing you guys specifically. I know saints will sign 3 players today and wondering if you guys will sign any more.you looked at the odds about a day too late...should have lumped on us yesterday
Fair enough.yeah that was what I meant
A LOT less than that.Robbo seems to be gone going on the recent trends/news. I wouldn't be surprised if Escab got greedy and offloaded Maguire to the lowest bidder! Would that give him the return on their generous ****ing gift they're after? I hope so.
They will hopefully then sell up and **** off for good. Oh and what a legacy to leave behind...leaves some money to a hospital but turns everything else they touch to ****! Bravo!
What will be our worth at the end of this season? I'd say about £40-£50m. .and that's being generous.
Yep probably.I'm not looking at backing you guys specifically. I know saints will sign 3 players today and wondering if you guys will sign any more.

Has he actually been spotted there? A lot of talk that we've been outbid by other clubs in the past couple of hours.
probably, but the odds aren't great now (whereas yesterday they were)I'm not looking at backing you guys specifically. I know saints will sign 3 players today and wondering if you guys will sign any more.
