Mate we could’ve won 8 nil and the usual suspects would’ve been whining and complaining.
There will always be posters like that, but thankfully they remain a noisy minority…an irritant, like a mole on the ass of life.
Well they didn't really, even when we reached the FINAL!
I think Ange already said earlier in the season that getting CL WASN'T the be all and end all for THIS season... Progress and instilling values were... Plus he also voiced a skepticism at any player who ONLY wanted to join us to play CL Football - and I tend to agree with him.
I hate the tired old cliché of "I've always wanted to play CL football, and 'hear the music' bollocks from players... You're going to a club cos they offer you more money that the others... THAT'S why we're behind 'certain' other clubs...
I know Newcastle and Chelsea will have to be careful this Summer, but they're still the type/level of clubs WE'RE going to be competing with for players... And maybe THEY'LL get some ahead of us...
it's NOT because the players want Conference League football, is it?
More red AIA logos everywhere probably!!
Anyway, it's done now.
CL football woulda been nice, but surely it gives us a target (and incentive) to aim for NEXT year.
Arse winning the title stays forever!
As they say, you shit your pants, you can wash them... You shit up the wall, that stuff STAINS much longer!!!!
(Ok, they don't say that!)
Who is complaining?
You must have so much time, nothing else to do but to watch forum posters

Noticed in daily mail we got 134.7m in prize money finishing 5th. Oil got 143m. We owed 5m by training sponsor getir who've fled to turkey.
I read last week it was £52 million and it goes up or down £3 million per place
Levy will not let that go. He’d take them to court for a fiver.
Have the moaners started a campaign and march on WHL to have Ange sacked yet?
We missed so many chances in the first half. Foderingham had another good performance against us too.
Still, a win is a win.
Edit - the red card incident. Wow. Cheeky Sheff U fucker.
Edit 2 - can’t believe it got rescinded, was a deliberate knee I thought. But ok, we can carry that tactic to next year, it’s ok to knee an opposition player in the box (fnar).

He's a gooner troll mate....shocked he ain't been foul voted off if I'm honest......
You.....didn't.....win.....the......league......
Get.....the.....fuck......over.....it.......
I read last week it was £52 million and it goes up or down £3 million per place
Basically 2 sets of figures going round......
"Every club receives almost £80m in equal share payments - effectively a dividend from the billions made from TV deals across the world - and that is topped up by a basic commercial figure of just under £10m. Clubs are also awarded a facility fee of approximately £900,000 for every game they play live on UK TV.
But the big difference comes in merit payments, awarded on a sliding scale depending on finishing position. Last season, and expected to be close to the same this year, every place was worth £3.1m - ensuring the champions make £62.3m"
One set includes the base 80m equal split that the clubs get from TV rights; one doesn't.....
Then you + 900,00 per game televised in the UK............ Then you get 3.1m for each place in the league. (i.e. 1 x 3.1m for for Sheff U thru to 20 x 3.1m for Man C)
Seems mad though that winners only got 15m more than us...... You'd have thought there'd be a prize pot on top of that just for the champs.
Think!! There are more benefits being in the Champions League as opposed to the Europa.
How much longer exactly do you plan to carry on whinging and being an annoying tit?
Even more benefits for Woolwich not winning the league!.....well, for us Spurs fans anyway.....
