Every conversation with you is strange since you never answer a straight question, albeit because you know by doing so will contradict yourself
I grasp it entirely. If you agreed with my notion initially then you would be within your conversational rights to now discuss it after the WBA game. You however said it was irrelevant and dismissed it.
To then wish to discuss it after the fact is also now a bit pointless.
Litigants is the word they use to describe that

In your opinion is it fair to judge monks points:game ratio against other swans PL managers at this early stage? After 4 games you were adamant it was, do you feel the same way now after 5?
it is not about fairness it is just about facts. You can compare anything to anything. Right now Monk's points per game ratio is the same as Laudrup managed with this squad, and he is our most successful manager in recent times, possibly of all time.

Its like saying Messi is good so Welbeck must be too.
They are completely different people.
4 PL games? How does his first 4 games compare to laudrups first 4 PL games?
Makes no difference. The most accurate thing we can go on is judging their complete tenure and not just parts of them, as parts of them can be manipula on every game they have ever managed Swansea in the Prem.

By your logic if you disagree with a point of view then you can no longer discuss it. Yet that applies to 99.9% of your posts. Threads would be very brief indeed. I think this, you think that, over in 2 posts.
thats not my logic at all. I gave a statistic and you said it was pointless, irrelevant and didnt show anything. So you now wanting to discuss it one match later is pointless, if you felt the discussion was pointless then, then its pointless now.
If you disagreed with the conclusion but agreed that the stat was relevant then you would have every right to now want to discuss the updated version of that stat. Unfortunately you are trying to have your cake and eat it and the fact im not allowing you is grinding your gears![]()
It was you that stated you had to compare the whole tenure of a managerial stint, yet now you're only using laudrups record this season. Therefore admitting that your initial stance was indeed nonsense and that I was right![]()
that can be said both ways.....
and it was you that said you had to compare parts and now you want to compare the whole thing![]()
Also admitting that your initial stance was indeed nonsense and that I was right.
Banged to rights roathie
you certainly are![]()

yeah sure you areyou are the squirmer. Trying to have your cake and eat it and me not allowing it.
You have said it is pointless so any conversation 1 game later is the same according to you. Whats the point in having a pointless conversation![]()
You forget my stance isn't up for debate. It's consistent. I'm asking you what yours is
So which is right? Comparing laudrup with monk this season or the whole tenure? Is is even a fair comparison in YOUR mind? Have you made your mind up yet?
so if your stance is the same then it renders the debate pointless as you think it shows nothing![]()
Nobody is falling for your attempts to deflect from very simple questions.
dont have to fall for anything. You said it was a pointless discussion before the wba game, so it means your question is indeed pointless.
Maybe the penny will drop in a minute![]()

Like I said you cant have your cake and eat it. If you didnt wish to discuss it with a dismissive tone prior to the WBA match the you must expect the same treatment after it. Not cake and eating on my watch carps

After I dismissed the comparison as nonsense you continued to argue your viewpoint for many posts before the WBA game.
Seems I was having my cake and eating it on your watch then roath. Gorged on it in fact![]()
that makes no sense. Having your cake and eating it is dismissing an opinion for its basis and then wanting to use the same basis the very next game. Not on my watch pal![]()
Now all I ask is whether YOU still feel the comparison is just? Before you stated you had to compare a managers full tenure, now it's ok to compare only part of Laudrups. I take it then you agree with my posts before the WBA game?
do YOU still feel the comparison is unjust then?
