    if you finish first you have the best squad of players in that division that season, they have earned the right to that accolade. Just as last season we had the easily the worst squad in the division. Doesn't matter a jot what the names say, its where you finish. This season in the premier league, Liverpool and Man City both have the best squads bar none, Man City's a little ahead of Liverpool. Its all relative to where you finish.

    Yes. They performed better.

    That's not what I said.

    I said who had a top three squad, not top three performing xi.

    There is a world of difference.

    So if you’re “not arsed” and haven’t read both sides, we are you getting involved? Your comment “Never let the facts get in the way of a good argument” was aimed at me, yet you’ve just admitted you don’t know the facts because you haven’t read them....!

    On paper, according to many at the start of the season, we had a top 6 squad. Means absolutely nothing.

    Agree. In the process of rewriting by brain to obliterate last season from about this time last year.

    If you find a way, let me know!!

    I still can’t fathom how quickly we’ve gone from being minutes from the championship to playing salford in a league game.

    You don’t even see the irony. I made an off the cuff comment about a tubby footballer and you waded in to spend the next 2 days getting all worked up about it. Then you’ve been out-argued on the basis of actual fact, then suggested you’ve ‘corrected me’. It’s a bank holiday weekend FFS - even with shite weather, have you nothing better to do??! 90% of the stupid squabbles are caused by, or strongly involve you.

    Why oh why does EVERY thread have to disintegrate into "Off topic" arguments.
    Can't you wait until you get into the playground FFS.

    Let's just calm down and cut out the personal feuds before it all gets out of hand. I've already moved more than 3 pages of posts from this thread to create another thread elsewhere on Steve McNulty. I don't intend wasting another 30 minutes of my life doing something similar again when there are far quicker solutions for me.

    Agreed.

    Except that actually, it means something : overachievement or underachievement.

    Which, effectively, is everything.

    we were never ‘minutes away from the championship’. we never led the game, never scored a goal and barely had a shot on target..

    We were 90 mins from the championship. I'm not arguing that we deserved to win, but we were a game away.
