    re: This time last season

    I think you will find FAILdale I didn't make a my assumptions I just stick to the FACT. Like Triz and Beardy are saying you attempt at companion completely different things is an absolute load of tosh!

    It's a complete laymans way of looking at things. It's like projecting sales figures based on December sales figures in retail being representative for the rest of the year ... Completely flawed in every way!!!

    Well yes then, when trying to prove a point about progression and comparing this season to the last, i would suggest comparing the same amount of games otherwise it's just a silly mistake from you or you being disingenuous, which is it?[/quote]


    You miss the point, Prat didin't do that did he? As per usual he posted in his usual arrogant style, rather than making a sensible and well reasoned point - mind you come to that neither did you.

    Triz arrogant

    It's not arrogant he just owns you in a few words every time. It's compelling viewing if I'm honest

    Unless we're bottom and you need to do something about it.

    He said Triz didn't post a reasoned argument.

    He was calling you arrogant. Simple English, Rat.

    Oh dear "owned me" do you not realise that using such schoolboy terms destroys and credibility you might have?

    I didn't say anything about Triz being arrogant, he generally provides reasoned argument, he's not always right but then neither am I.

    I doubt he values your thoughts on the matter, being generally more than able to defend his position without use of spurious and inaccurate ramblings!

    What makes compelling reading is the utter tosh that you post in support of a view which bears absolutely no relation to the facts.

    Now that is pure COMEDY GOLD!
