Remind me Norder of the actual final score?

we did win the game Sub - can be no argument there - but beat them squarely we didn't....because it was Fulham who scored "ALL 3 Goals" and us who couldn't even put a shot on target - that against the current 2nd to worst team in the PL - a relegation favourite - so where does that put us ?.....I know - spin - spin reality - the land of make believe.

Not currently 2nd to worst as can be seen from the last 6 matches and we have beaten 5 of the current bottom 6:-

14 Everton 6 2 0 4 10 12 -2 6
15 Brighton & Hove 6 1 2 3 5 8 -3 5
16 Fulham 6 1 2 3 4 9 -5 5
17 Newcastle Utd 6 1 2 3 3 9 -6 5
18 Cardiff City 6 1 2 3 4 11 -7 5
19 Bournemouth 6 1 1 4 6 16 -10 4
20 Huddersfield 6 0 1 5 3 10 -7 1

of the contingent nature.

Not currently 2nd to worst as can be seen from the last 6 matches and we have beaten 5 of the current bottom 6:-

all playing different teams of varying quality - at different times.....and a decent point buffer also matters, can play around with team/tactics etc - so a weak example - Sub.

I never see the point of arguing about the results, we've won our last four games, that's an indisputable fact, nothing else to say really.

But on the performances, we all can see it differently, there's plenty to fall out about there, and we do, which is to be expected imo. But the results ? They are what they are, how can you argue over them ?

Bloody hell Norder, cheer up!

As Kilby once said, "Give a Burnley fan a fiver and he will ask, "Why isn't it a tenner?""

We are 15th in the Premier League. we have just played in a European competition.

I am 66 and I used to think these days were gone for good. For a town the size of ours we all realise it can't last forever. So just enjoy playing in the big lads league while you can.

I remember Rovers fans being equally as deluded a few years ago and we all despised them. Let's not be like them, eh?

Current form is relevant because it is still 11 v 11 at any one time.
People rave about the football that Bournemouth play and in their last 6 games there have been 22 goals scored so that would be what is classed as entertainment. however, I'll bet that Eddie Howe isn't too happy because 16 of those goals have been conceded by his team.
At the end of week 11 Bournemouth were 6th in the table and had accrued 20 points and we were 15th with 8 points.
At the end of week 22 Bournemouth are 12th with 27 points and we are 15th with 21 points.

Similarly, Brighton at the end of week 15 were 10th with 21 points and we were 19th with 9 points
At the end of week 22 Brighton are 13th with 26 points and we have moved up to 15th with 21 points.

Two teams which have been moving downwards steadily and who we have both beaten this season --nothing is certain in football, however, 12 points in 7 games is a decent upturn even though lots of our fans consider that we are shoite!!
