RamNut Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 The focus is on the defence due to the nature of the goals conceded, but we offered very little in attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If these are the clement signings rather than chris evans... Well bring back chris Evans or Jeremy clarkson for that matter. We need to get back into top gear. I felt sorry for Camara. A couple of times he pinged over great crosses and no-one tried to get on the end of them. I thought that's what we employed Martin and Blackman for.

I wonder what the spending figures for all championship clubs have been as 5 year average. i venture to suggest that despite our recent splurge our average spending, while at the top end, isn't exceptional. Add to that the Johnson Butterfield situation arose following Bruson and Husghes being injured and us being lucky enough to have Mel's resources. One of those 2 would not have been bought if Hughesy had stayed uninjured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How mature but I guess that reflects more on you than myself that you went to all that effort to find one post for your own agenda when lots of other posters at the time made the same prediction, there were different circumstances then with completely different tactics and different manager. Surely you could see due to the nature of the last bit "bet at your own peril" you could see I was joking but for your own humour I'd happily have the humble pie. I'm sure I could find some wrong predictions from yourself but I'm not sad enough to do that. I did say that I made that bet because if we did happen to fall out the play offs I would be in a win-win situation, either rich or seeing my team in the play offs with a genuine chance of going up. Oh well at least Sky are £100 richer now but I'd have preferred the play offs any day of the week..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many people decided to "bet at their own peril", myself included. I offered you a bet to charity, so I wouldn't have even benefitted personally, and you just ignored the comment. It seems to me that for whatever reason, you're intentionally negative and I'm not sure why. If you really were so confident we'd drop out of the play-off places you'd have taken some of the many bets on offer. Nothing more than a troll, I find it hard to take anything you say with anything more than a pinch of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will say I don't remember anyone other than Bris suggesting we might not reach the playoffs (other than the wristslashers who come on to tell us the end is nigh whenever we lose) but that doesn't mean they weren't here. Aforementioned wristslashers meant I didn't pay much attention I'm certainly not going to take the time or effort to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the way the game went you could surely see we didn't deserve to lost 4-1. Burnley were perhaps better but I'd argue a draw wouldn't have been unfair on either side. If you'd already bet, why offer the bet out openly? I replied pretty quickly yet got no response from you. I even had to prompt you. I don't understand the endless negativity. You're not the only one on here but you're definitely only doing it for a wind. With a name of McLovin & previously dcfcrammyboy, it must all be a joke...

Whilst I agree that the score 4-1 was harsh you make your own luck.
