There are several people making the claim that we should have finished top 2 and that isn't arrogance?

What facts were those again? Players being disappointed after just falling short is normal, I would be annoyed if they weren't. It's amazing what hindsight shows.

Was that not more at right back and defensive mid than CB or am I getting my seasons mixed up?

Again you miss my point. Any club that has come close but not achieved what it hoped to will have players saying how they are disappointed but that they were nearly there and a couple of games could have changed it. I bet man utd players did when they lost on last day if the season. My point was...

That's unusual, a player admitting they didn't do as well as they hoped and that several games were close. I bet 20% of clubs have a similar story

I think you missed the point. Acker was trying to show that out of the two positions used for centre back that only one of the players could be considered as "not league 1" therefore by taking him (upson) out of the equation it very easily tells you how much the others played. Your stats saying...

I didn't say the match didn't mean much, I meant your point about managers being "outsmarted" by others in one off games. It happens all the time. Are Stevenage better than Newcastle? Are Wrexham better than arsenal? What about cloughie losing to Walton and hersham against us?

How much did mullery get in current amounts when adjusted for inflation? The point I understood from ackers post regarding the league 1 players is they were just that when they were signed or else they'd have been playing higher. Bridcutt is surely an example of a player some other clubs...

And Alex ferguson was out smarted by joe royale in a one off game, doesn't really mean much

I thought it was a car?

More inaccurate than a lot of the other stuff on here? Besides how are they misleading, all they suggest is there is another side to arguments of which there always is. I think you need to get out of black and white world and realise its mostly grey

I'm not sure whys that's relevant here as my original point was talking about hindsight is easy to see where things could have been better but to answer your question he achieved what I hoped for with 4th (6th and above was my aim) and then if you're in the playoffs it's a lottery. Who knows...

They aren't rewriting history, just posing possible scenarios hence the question marks

Oh do pee off. You never read my posts without bias because I don't agree with you. It's not possible to debate with you as you refuse to take anyone else's opinion on board. You always level this accusation at me and its not true.

If if if, in 1995 man utd lost out on a treble by the smallest margins. 1 goal in any number of games would have given them the title. Hindsight is wonderful
