tidus_mi2 In hindsight obviously the ones who said Yes were proven right but I don't think any one could have factored in the near constant levels of injuries we have had this season.

We have them most seasons tbf.

Joao barely played last season. Yiadom missed loads. It's been a regular thing for ages.


Yiadom is injured so often I generally forget he exists.

I find it hard to comprehend how Swift has been injured all season bar one 3 week stretch, for muscle injuries.

Ligament injuries you accept 6 monhts plus post operation.. But to lose a player for nearly the whole season just seems hard to understand.

Millsy
Snowflake Royal Are you new?


It's because I'm not.

Knowing our luck the only time we will ever win a playoff final is when no-one is there to see it.


I was thinking the same thing.

If we make the playoffs, we will win because of momentum. But that's now a crazy big if.

Pepe the Horseman Question now - would you rather:
Finish 7th
Make POs and lose in semis
Make PO and lose in final


I've no actually looked at the dates, but guess getting to the PO finals and losing prob leaves us with very little time before the start of the new season. After this year, think I'd rather they get a proper couple of months off and go again for next year. So prob rather finish 7th if those were the choices.

Obvs getting to and winning the final is a different matter

Shit. I thought this thread was the Euro Super League.

Thank God it's not being scrapped. Such a great thread, started by an absolute genius.

No thanks. The moaning about the lack of effort and choking in our 'two cup finals' would be less bearable than the current moaning.

quarter of a cnetury in England, and I still had to think about this to work it out.

Reminds me of when me and my son failed his Year 1 homework, because we didn't know that pore was supposed to rhyme with poor.
