Wayne Rooney's Derby County....

[ozleeds]

Wrong. At the very least he should be credited with winning the Championship with LUFC.

Ohh I forgot that but wasn't it because of Covid hitting just as we were to go on our tired run once again and had a couple of months rest and came back refreshed!

[ozleeds]

For context you'll notice no threads about the absolute lols of Barnsley going down despite us being a county 'rival' for them

Aren't they our feeder club just like Burnley why would we laugh at them we should be morning showing love. Humm I wonder if it's because it's Anzac day here and I'm in the morning stage either way but been relegated sux for fans and we all know what happened to us for years.

[WTF11]

Respect is earned I respect him as a great person and the way he conducted himself as far as his management that's another story.

And your willingness to extend that respect ignores the fact that with much the same squad as others had struggled to get us above mid-table Championship mediocrity, Bielsa made us the most exciting team in the Championship, culminating in promotion as champions, and that we ripped up the PL with the same squad to the appreciation if all, INCLUDING our opponents?

No comparison between Bielsa, Lumpard or Rooney and to suggest otherwise makes you look a tad silly, something I never thought I'd say about you.

We were in promotion places going into lockdown, and improved coming out, what is so strange about that?

Since when have Barnsley supplied us with players, unlike when we gave the them Mowatt?

Point being made was that there are no "humorous" threads regarding their relegation, unlike their fans response when we were relegated/suffered points deduction (same as every other f00king club was having a good old laugh at us, stop being so f00king naive).

Dude feeder to me means giving them players lol like we feed them get it!

Look at the previous year no covid we were near the top till the end and missed out altogether. Derby comes to mind.

I'm more inclined to look at results and methods of play. I said it once and I'll say it again beautiful football doesn't get you results unless you're a billionaire team. And when did I compare him to Lambard and Rooney I was more comparing him with Dyche and one way or the highway.

And I get accused of "shifting ground". We went into lockdown in a promotion place, we came out and ended up as Champions, possibly because we had a chance to catch breath. Nothing remarkable, apart from ending as Champions with the same squad that were nowhere 18 months previous
