Has indeed... thank God!

Coppell was their manager in the early to mid 90's. Dowie was their manager when they got promoted about 2004? They weren't bottom either. And to be honest, I can't remember if they were one of the favourites. We may have been one of the favourites before the season started, but after 8 games I...

No, it was dowie. But again, that isn't standard! Everybody thought that was a great achievement by palace! Which it would be with us too!

Again, I disagree. Not standard. Not where we were.

Hah! At least you're honest!

They were in the prem from about 94? May have got relegated but think they were pretty much regulars?

Really, 2nd bottom when he takes over and the standard aim would be play offs? I disagree completely. He had no idea how it was going to go. I stick with it being a great achievement. Something to actually cheer as a cov fan. If it happens.

The tool strikes again! Keep saying this stuff, it seems to work... Pleb

Yeah, saw that last night. Like you say, schoolboy stuff but WHAT was the ref thinking not giving a fk there?! It was blatant!

I'm not sure you're seeing the point. After being 15 points behind, getting into the top 6 and getting a play off place would be a great achievement. No matter what the squad is, those players were not turning up for the first 8 games this season and we lost a lot of ground. In relation to where...

Who said anything like top 6 is like winning cl?! Slight over exaggeration to what's trying to be said.

It definitely would be a great achievement considering where we were.

Show me where I put we'll just sneak top 6?

We'll see at the end of the season. Personally, I think any talk of top 2 is slightly naive.

It's not a moot point. Psychologically, that will be with players, though I believe Robins is making them stronger with that. As for top 2, I'd love it, cannot see it though. 13 points to make up with 17 games left is just that little bit too far. I'd be ecstatic with play offs.

Taylor, for a team that hasn't finished top 6 for however many years, with an awful start to the season, being something like 15 points off play offs at one point then I would say 6th is anything but standard. It would be a huge achievement. Otis, I think you're getting confused! Gary said he...

I wasn't being serious! I didn't think someone would judge a player on tackling ability. It was just the way it was written. And yes, it does say that in the original post, along with "as he can't tackle"! Like I said, just the way it was written tickled me!

The best we've played that I've seen is the Walsall match, and for that match sheff was in the middle with moussa out left. Sheffs runs in that match were quality and moussa got back and forward brilliantly.

From what I've seen the officials are poor at this level, especially the linesmen. But, when we did have a Premier League ref, he was also bloody awful! Can't explain the penalties. Went to Yeovil, first game of the season, and McDonald got hacked down, right in front of our fans. It was...

Hold on, I may have been being slightly sarcastic, but you did say your mate said, and I quote... "Mcsheffrey: couldn't believe he was a £4.5mil player as he can't tackle"! Got to admit, that sounds like his main criteria for a player is tackling ability!
