Exactly mate. Absolutely ridiculous.Its genuinely such a stupid argument i still haven't worked out how to combat it.
Although, you never see anyone say "If we didn't have our two worst players, we'd have finished higher"
Lets face it, if we swapped Ade and Soldado with Austin and Ings, we'd probably have finished 4th. It is what it is.
Another classic, yes mate!!Yeah that argument is on the same level as my personal favorite---the "all those last minute winners show we suck" argument. We shouldn't count points from goals we score after the 85th minute. (However, I presume we should double count the points from goals we concede after the 85th minute.)
Another great example! Again, one I cannot even think how to reply to as its so blatantly obvious that in sport you will win some and you'll lose some, unless you're the best team in the league/world.However, saying "if we'd taken points from... we'd have finished..." is another redundant argument.
If we'd won more points we'd have finished higher. Well done. Similarly, if we'd lost more points we'd have finished lower.
We could have beaten the teams below us... but similarly, we could have lost to Chelsea and Woolwich. Thats not how football works. Certainly not in the premier league.

Are you mental?I have this weird feeling that, given a year or two, the 'oligarchy' (oilgarchy?) that runs City might cut their losses and move on..

jesus u guys are hysterical. u whinge about sammy & all his posts clogging up the forum. yet even when he is sin banned u cant help but bring him up & talk about him. spurs have just had a great finish to the season & u are slagging off sammy. why cant u just admit u like arguing & talking about him?! no one will judge u. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE WE HEARD PEOPLE SAY ITS HARD TO IGNORE SAMMY. NOW HE IS SIN BINNED & SPURS WIN & GET 5TH BUT YET U STILL TALK ABOUT HIM. sounds like u are enjoying sammy being wrong more than u are spurs getting 5th.You can just imagine him sat at his computer right now can't you. Fuming away about something, fingers itching, typing away at the air. Unable to vent his frustration at... well i dunno. But he'd find some way to be pissed off about this. No doubt something to do with Sherwood getting more points or whatever.
They will when Qatar gets the World Cup taken away from them!I have this weird feeling that, given a year or two, the 'oligarchy' (oilgarchy?) that runs City might cut their losses and move on..
Scott mate - the only one obsessing about Sammy is you. Are you sure you're not related? I think we should be told. I like Sammy, but I'm glad he wasn't around today.jesus u guys are hysterical. u whinge about sammy & all his posts clogging up the forum. yet even when he is sin banned u cant help but bring him up & talk about him. spurs have just had a great finish to the season & u are slagging off sammy. why cant u just admit u like arguing & talking about him?! no one will judge u.

good points but no need to over exaggerate it by saying liverpool were 1 slip away from winning the league but leaving out crucial points. sturridge who scored a hatful was injured for most of this season. & obviously they lost world class suarez. u cant even compare liverpool with sturridge & suarez & a liverpool team without.We really had no right to be finishing ahead of liverpool. The same Liverpool that were one slip away from winning the league last season. The same Liverpool that are historically the second biggest club in this country.
ironically these are the same people who accuse sammy of trying to win the internet.Nobody argue with this. It's 100% correct. No other opinions are to be asked for, as this is definitive.
ok joe. it was me who brought him up. not any of u lot. il go along with whatever u guys want. x i obeyScott mate - the only one obsessing about Sammy is you. Are you sure you're not related? I think we should be told. I like Sammy, but I'm glad he wasn't around today.
No fucking way. Why are you bringing him up all the time? You've gone mate - your agenda is kind of creepy.ironically these are the same people who accuse sammy of trying to win the internet.
What's all this obey shit scott? We've had a fun day to end the season, and you're talking about an internet poster and not Spurs. I really don't get it.ok joe. it was me who brought him up. not any of u lot. il go along with whatever u guys want. x i obey
ok joe. he was already brought up by a few other posters & they have mentioned him more than me. but what ever u say joeNo fucking way. Why are you bringing him up all the time? You've gone mate - your agenda is kind of creepy.
Ok, but Sammy isn't important - I haven't mentioned him today until you did. Can we not knock it?that was my exact point joe. u must have not read the pages before where people were talking about an internet poster & spurs. i dont get it either
Don't give me that "whatever you say Joe" shit. It's childish and annoying.ok joe. he was already brought up by a few other posters & they have mentioned him more than me. but what ever u say joe
OK - everyone that mentioned sammy today is a cunt. Especially me. Even though I didn't until nowsure. just find it strange u dont say it to the few posters who actually brought him up first. u are a complex character.
especially now FFP is being challenged. thank godNot when they're buying football clubs all around the world and investing millions into training bases and academies
