Has our start hoodwinked a lot of people? 10:08 - Feb 13 with 39349 viewsParlay

For me, we have simply been dining out on our first 3 games all season, which tricked a lot of people into thinking we are actually playing well.

Some startling facts....

We got MORE than 25% of our season points in those first 3 games alone.

In the rest of them we have barely been getting over a point a game - and that was with Bony in the side for the majority of the time.

We will be heavy underdogs in the next 3 of 4 games and I dont see a win coming in any of them.

If this slide isnt addressed soon, we may not have the luxury of hitting the ground running next term and then we are in a whole world of trouble if the performances remain at this level. We will barely hit 38 points.

if I was going to have a pseudo poster(for whatever insane mad reason that might be) I would make him/her a bit of a tw@ who I could prove wrong from time to time or would back me up now and then.

but step back from this why would anyone need a multiple identity, its concerning.

by the way I am not suggesting that anyone is doing it, but its kind of mad

where could it lead???

complete paranoia


Some people get heir kicks in winding people up, it's like w@nking yourself silly with three or four pretend hands.

How has he ridiculed Monk in that post - it is absolutely spot on those initial 2 weeks of the season in August have indeed masked our ongoing performance.

Since the start of Sept (that is 5 1/2 months) with a much stronger team and far less injuries and fixtures (and no one trying to take over from him) he has managed just one single more PL point than the man who according to some was absolute crap (you know the one who gave us one of our most successful seasons ever). That is over the same period, and the same number of games and without the ongoing European and FA cup success of his predecessor.

All the badge kissing in the world will not get you beyond that fact.

seems like dyss left and its long live the king. just saw the post title and countless other critical appraisals along same lines - such droning on is energy sapping. where on earth do you find the time and inclination.....

if anyone cares to give a summary of the first 9 pages be most grateful.


Well there is barely a worthwhile retort after the OP.

The next 9 pages or whatever we are on has been about Parlay.

Im in Wales Richard. Never denied it, you just read incorrectly again.

I said I was 10,000 miles away in response to someone asking if I was going to run for the trust. Thats where I live you see. Unless I can be trust chairman/director from the Gold Coast?

Can I?

Now you have found your typing fingers are you going to respond to the multitude of questions you have ignored over the last few weeks? Or are you going to be a hypocrite and not be a man?........ As you put it.

What would we be looking up exactly? And who does that anyway? .

This is about something I wrote, I'm pretty sure its not in some online journal. And even if it was then they would also say you were wrong.

You are awfully paranoid. You seem to feel inferior in debate and put it down to "people looking things up every 5 seconds".. Rather than them actually knowing more about the subject than you.

I don't think I've ever looked anything up to form my opinion, only to provide a link to back it up if someone wont take it from me due to my username.

You need some confidence.

There is nothing to be correct over Skippy. You haven't been able to explain them.

I could call you a racist and a woman beater. But unless I could back it up or explain it would be worthless.

Not sure what has been looked up

know the matches last year and this year been to most of them

Know the points - know how many games are remaining

I normally always double check stats as I do not like to publish false information

In answer to the OP, of course if you take out 3 wins in a row then for any club in mid table it is going to make the rest of the points tally look ordinary.

The season has to be judged as a whole, not with sections missing.

As to the points tally, if we had been on the end of correct refereeing decisions throughout the season rather than the run of appalling ones we encountered then we would quite conceivably be sitting with 6-10 points more than we have now.

Nobody has suggested taking them out.

But the points tally we have is quite significantly weighted towards a period of time that doesn't really suit us anymore. We play differently and have different personnel in key positions. So my question was, are people looking at the table and seeing a points tally rather than performances on the pitch.

But thanks for a reply that is on topic. One of a handful in nearly 10 pages.
