This is why he ignores statistics, fact and also the point that we didn't qualify for CL for Harry's last 2 seasons.
Do I think scraping fourth and still not getting a CL place that was nailed on for us 10 games before the end of the season with mostly relegation fodder left to play was a success?
No. Complete failure in isolation of those 10 games that set us up to be a joke in front of Arse & Chav fans.
Cheers Harry, but you worry about your England job and blame us all for that
Found out, SamuelHello, Im arcspace and Im desperately trying to revive the argument I missed yeaterday....please bitch with me....pleeeease
All I want to know is - would Ade's goals count in that case or not?and finishing the season as runners up on 85pts would be better than winning the title on 70pts.
The debate ended yesterday when you pretended you were confused as to what season I meant, as oppsed to admitting you looked like a knob, for trying to convince me for 6 pages that 5th was better than 4th, and finishing the season as runners up on 85pts would be better than winning the title on 70pts.
A season's success in the league is down to how many games they win lose and draw, hence how many points they achieve. If we won the league with 40 points because every other team drew every match they had, that wouldn't be a success, it'd be causality. We'd never look back and go "wow we did good"
Last Season: 5th place, 72 points
Won 21, Drew 9 Lost 8, 66 for, 46 against. +20 GD
HR - 2011/12: 4th place, 69 points
Won 20, Drew 9 Lost 9, 66 for, 41 against. +25 GD
HR - 2010/11: 5th Place, 62 points
Won 16, Drew 14, Lost 8, 55 for, 46 against. +9 GD
We've been gettin better, and last season's squad did better (winning one more game) without VdV and Modric. Pretty much same squad otherwise.
That one extra win would have got us 3rd the season before. Simple maths suggests that it was achievable.
I don't expect you to accept this, as you have made it clear as to your thoughts on the subject and inability to recognise last season, but it's still there as our best season in the league regardless of opinion
ENDED

We were 4 points clear of 5th place.
and 5 point clear of 6th place. On a run of 16 points from a possible 39.
The 13 games until the end of the season ran like this:
L L L D D W D L L W W D W
The last 3 of these were after Hodgson had got the England job.
That season we lost 9 games all season. 5 of those game whilst Harry was courting the England job, so had the drama rumbled on further then we could have easily lost even more points.
I don't see how I'm ignoring stats/contradicting myself by saying we scraped 4th?
