No I’m like the Spurs fan laughing at Chelsea and Woolwich fans who preferred winning a semi final of a competition they lost to winning the FA or Carabou Cup
Interesting analogy by the way, you certainly know your place at the big table don’t you

Please detail and explain them, season by season, trophy by trophy. If you don't then it's safe to say that you are just making shit up.
As I thought.. That's just acknowledging there are 'bigger' teams here and in Europe.....
The facts:
- 6th most successful in the country
- 4th-6th richest (depends how you define wealth) in the country
- Current league finish 6th.
- Obviously there are 'bigger' teams in Europe too.
Errrr Leicester didn’t lose because we took 1pt instead of 6pts off them.
There’s a thought.
Are you saying that Jose has never had injuries in a season he won a trophy?
The ONLY person that has uttered those words is you.
That wasn't what I've said and not what I have read from another poster on here.
Why are you back to lying and making up shit again?
????One needn't be so polar-minded....
FFS.... It's OK to to have treasured memories and yet still value cups you know....
Vs Inter home & Away
Vs AC away
Vs RM at Wembley
Last years away run in the CL
Countless NLDs
The run in to our first CL qualification.
Wigan 9-1
Etc.
Bollocks to using a false equivalence to Newcastle just to get one's digs in too.... Have a little more respect for your club FFS.
I'm saying I have absolutely no fucking idea. But I eagerly await evidence of this to be posted by you on account that you have all the details.
Yet funny how it’s been claimed winning the semi of the CL despite losing the final is preferable to winning the Carabou.
Not sure you know what you’re taking about mate.
You remember random Chelsea semi finals, I’m so proud of you
Evidence isn’t hard to find unless you believe there has been a team in the history of football without an injury

Manchester United injury crisis is worse than fans think
Man Utd news has been dominated by injuries to players and the crisis extends beyond Jose Mourinho's first team squad.

Jose won a double that season
Is that an apology for lying and making up stuff? Nah, I thought not, just dodging it in the hope it gets lost in a married of subsequent posts.
Are you saying someone has not claimed They preferred beating Ajax despite losing the final to beating Chelsea in the final?
What you make of Jose’s double with injuries?
I don't believe that to be the case, although it is noted that Liverpool, Leicester and Chelsea (under Conte) won the Title with few or no injuries (I'm sure they had some, but I'm not making the claim as fact either way).
But I am sat here waiting for you to posts facts about the claim.
I just posted evidence above that Jose won a double with injuries
I’m really not “skitting” around the issue. My point has always been trophies alone are not enough.
It’s tough to say, but if we’re talking about last seasons CL run against, say, our 08 League Cup win with both coming 4th, I’d take the CL run.
It is the elite competition in club football, and to get to a final is an accolade. Whilst it would be great to win the league cup, for me it’s a borderline friendly tournament reflected by the fact no good side puts out a strong team until the semi final.
It’s like asking would I rather England win the Nations Cup or get to a World
Cup final. World Cup for me - it’s the pinnacle of the sport (like CL for club football).
If people don’t agree fair enough. I’m not saying I’m right, it’s just an opinion.
The truth is you have to balance more into the equation in the scenarios you’ve presented though. Take last season, 4th and a CL final looks great on paper, but we were shit for 6 months and I wasn’t happy with that. Setting arbitrary targets is great but it doesn’t tell the full story.
I'm only speaking for what I have quoted and what you have responded to in our posts.
You do this a lot, take what others have said in some other conversations then circle around another poster and make claims about that poster. Either that or you get all the posters mixed up (I've done that before and it's easily done, but when I've had this pointed out to me or that I have realised it myself I've made my apologies). I won't hold my breath with you though.
This remembering thing is weird. I can tell you I have a lot better shot at remembering who lost the 96 CL final than remembering who won the league cup that year. The only league cup winners I remember personally are the leftfield ones like Swansea.
Who are these people you speak of that have encyclopaedic memories of league cup history, but have never watched a CL final?!
