Unbelievable not more then two minutes of us on tv.

And still...were not the best team apparently but only the most consistent, 80 points with games in hand.

Seven wins on the trot...sake.

No problem - we're just a pikey hick town club in Div 1 punching above our weight and by no means deserve any coverage whatsoever desite being ONLY thirteen points clear with a depressing TWO games in hand, but hey ho, each to their own as they
Surely it's only a matter of time before we all refuse to pay our dues to the shite BBC and just go elsewhere

We should have bombarded them with texts but they didn't have them tonight (why do they drop this feature when Championship clubs aren't playing?)

Does it really matter ? The dumber opposition fans will always use this rather than accept that we are the best team in the league. not worth worrying about.

Are we still getting no love from The Football League Show? :cry:

Makes you wonder whether winning League One is really worth it. :drunk:

"There are a number of teams in this league who are just as good as them". Of couse there are Karl Robinson, of course there are. You keep telling yourself that Karl...seven wins on the trot whilst you're drawing at home to Walsall on the back of a dodgy penalty. That's why you're staying down.

Reckon the show is keeping its powder dry and preparing to do a huge production number on us in a few weeks. Probably the Southampton game.

I think they made a fair point, which was we havent played particularly well, but have continued to win games.

Doesnt seem unreasonable ?

The Media also love a 'story', but there is no 'story' in us anymore as we are 13 points clear.

Fcuk the media, Fcuk the Karl Robinsons, Paul Ince and Nigel Arrogant Adkins.

We dont need their approval, respect or pat on the back.

What Poyet has done in 12 months with no BIG signings coming in is nothing shy of amazing......we dont need to be told that week after week.

Although It is a bit of a non story us now walking the league, I do feel were being mugged off week after week, but who cares....WE ARE GOING UP!!!!

Its funny, if this was Mourinho at Chelsea a few years back on a run like us. They'd be labelled unstoppable, not, just the most consistent.

They really don't rate us do they? I got the feeling that the presenter was trying to get Robinson and Claridge to say on screen what they had clearly said off it - something along the lines that there are much better teams but we just happen to get lucky every week. We seem to be becoming the new Leeds (fans who were around in the late 60's/early 70's will know what I mean) butif Gus is a fraction as successful as Don Revie I'll take it. He is certainly more entertaining

But that's exactly what we are - consistent. Six of our seven wins were by a single goal. Games could have easily gone another way (Carlisle, Oldham and yesterday being examples) but they didn't. Instead, while others have their slip-ups, we just march on relentlesly. That's what makes us league leaders and champions - at the business end of the season we just keep on doing the business.

.

However when Man U do this, as they have for a large part of the season they talk about how good teams can play badly and still win games and do not suggest that there are better teams 13 points below them..

I like the fact that there are lots of teams as good as us in league 1,
and that we won't be able to play our style of football at a higher level
and that the best anyone can say about us is that we are consistent

The fact that we are 13 points clear mainly through luck makes the gap all the sweeter :wink:

Who cares what they say, or dont say! We're class, the league table doesn't lie. Not playing well and still winning thats because we're good!
Anyway don't listen to them idiots on there, obviously Gus is a class above that show as he gets on MOTD!
 


I'm actually pleased that these 'ex-berts' still don't have us on their radar.

Our team were motivated even more to beat Swin-done yesterday by something their manager had said. Gus got quietly on with winning, and perspectives are going to have to be adjusted in big style if we win the league and esp. by bagloads of points.

The diff between ManU that everyone respects, is that they can be streets ahead and not lose track of the intent to still win and play great football - which they do. As opposed to sides who might be running away with their league then lose interest against a bottom-dredging lot.

But for our lads, the motivation is there to be essential members of a Championship Division side next season. If I were a player, that would be enough to spur me on to play the best anyway.
