Couple of beers for staying up by a point?
We also had a 10 point deduction last season & finished a point better off!
Hardly cause for a celebration SP!
Care to explain aj?
Come on Snoz although we've had a shocking second half to the season the very first target of survival has been achieved, all that against our current back drop loosing his star striker, loosing his other striker to injury and having to play a winger up front and all the other crap who can blame him for putting a positive feeling on it. Leyton Orient is a prime example of what a settled focused squad can achieve in this division but unfortunately for us we are set to re-build again next season which in my opinion is where our biggest problem is, every year we have to re-build and start again hence we start well then tail off.
All in all hardly cause for celebration but no need to be ripped apart for achieving his/our original target, I fear next season could be a bigger struggle though with no Wilson,Murphy moussa, Christie. All of the players listed are responsible for scoring, creating, stopping goals and have played key role at some stage in this season.
And Last season all the Home games were played at the RICOH this season we have played every game away ! I think SP can be rightly proud and if we beat Sheffield United on the last game we will be 1 point of last year. So all in all he can be rightly proud of the achievementCouple of beers for staying up by a point?
We also had a 10 point deduction last season & finished 4 points better off, pending last match result!

And a couple of beers?Yes, next season is a big one for SP!
Don't get me wrong, he's the man for the job, not one of the anti Steve mob!
He's a rare person in that he does what he says & sees things from a fan's point of view!
He could do with a shave though
don't we allAny celebration party should not include Sisu.
Pressley has done wonders with absolutely nothing.
Even manages to give positive interviews with both hands and feet tied.
Love to know what he really thinks about this shambles.
Considering the environment the owners have created for SP and the team I think what was accomplished this season was nothing short of spectacular. But for loosing Clarke and not finding a suitable replacement it could have been better. Both of which can be attributed in part to the environment.

Which is exactly the point-these are not the times to be celebrating. Nobody is diminishing the achievement of overhauling a 10 point deficit to get safe, they just don't see staying in this league as a cause for celebration. It is a subtle difference but one nonetheless.

Should be proud of the first half of the season but ashamed by the second half.
You can look at it like that. But with Clarke going, Wilson injured, the usual problems with loan players, then all the off field goings on, was the rug pulled from under his feet?
The turmoil around the club must be effecting his plans and ability to build for the future. Let's face it this season is very similar to many seasons we have had in Lge 1, Championship and Premier. Under a whole host of managers.
Perhaps we should stop blaming managers and look elsewhere. Staying in the Premier league as long as we did may not have been pretty or enjoyable at the time, but an achievement in itself.
The club needs stability.
There is some pride attached to a club like Coventry punching above its weight in the top flight for years on end. There is no pride whatsoever in the same club clinching third tier safety with a game to go. Yes you can talk about the deduction but that was brought about by our owners' failed attempts to send another company bust rather than genuine financial difficulty.
