Yet still stay in 9th place.

Isn't that their argument about City? :lol:

How can you make an argument for luck when have been top since November 24th
As for the jacks with 3 games left they still need one point to mathematically be safe. A hell of a fall from their heady heights of the first half of the season.
I also believe if we had been able to have Maynard available all season we would have one the league by more points and in a better style.


Agree about Maynard :ayatollah:
I think chuckles was throwing the jacks points back at them tbh

Basically we got lucky in a shit league.


Your post lost any credibility when you compared Marshall to Ron f*cking Healy.Rather than slag anyone off I would suggest a trip to specsavers and a dementia test at your earliest opportunity. :twisted: :laughing6:

There are some whoppers on this thread. Firstly the op, who clearly hasn't a clue about football and this Black Swan character(probably an old troll of the forum)

I've seen you allude to us winning just 3 from the last 13 several times on the board. How about ten wins from ten home at the start of the season(a record)or unbeaten in our last 7 games. You can spin your clueless negative rhetoric as much as you like mush. We won the championship league title through a combination of many things. Being lucky or an average side weren't anything to do with it.

You must excuse me, I'm off out along with 100,000 others to hail a new era in welsh football.

I'm not. I'm referring to the Jacks saying "you've won and only got blah blah blah in the last 15 games - shows the level of the league"

When they remain 9th after such a horrific drop in form... So the same applies to the prem. :D

Ill timed and ungrateful post but the OP does make some valid points.

We didn't play the best football, not by a long shot. We did, however, play the most effective football, which is proved by the final league table.

The squad needs a serious overhaul lets not kid ourselves.

People lauding over the likes of Gestede and the kid Nugent. Hopefully they wont be anywhere near the match day squad next year.

Having said that, it doesn't really matter how you get promoted, the result is the same. You will just have to work harder and sign better than most clubs normally have to in order to compete. You have 2 or 3 that could fit into the Prem but I think you need a near complete overhaul. You just have to hope Malky spends wisely because £25 million won't go that far when having to sign so many.



The fact you haven't won a game since 1936 yet sit 9th in the premier league shows the prem is shite.

Any more pearls of wisdom?

I don't think the standard has dropped, intact the division has improved. For example P'Boro getting relegated with 54pts. :ayatollah:

In our run of no wins we were caught by the teams below who made up a 9-10 point gap. The teams ahead of us pulled away.

In your 3 wins in 14 you extended your lead. That's the point, not league position.
