Every single semi big team predict big wins at home to Luton because they’re absolute championship piss.

The reality has been quite different though:

Villa 3-2
Villa 3-1 <<<
Man U 2-1
Man U 1-0
NC 4-4 (draw)
NC 1-0 (win!)
Chavs 3-2
Brighton 4-0 (win!)
Man C 2-1
Man C 6-2 <<<
Arse 3-4
Dippers 1-1 (draw)
Dippers 4-1 <<<

That's just 3 games with more than a 1 goal margin against them.

We played worse that than against Sheff Utd and needed a 98th min goal to win the match, cue loads of celebrations back then and fans all misty eyed and dreaming, fast forward to yesterday and the fans are moaning that we didn't thrash Luton, they're "demanding more" whatever the fuck that means and booing at HT.

Same fans who said that we'd be mid table and nowhere near qualifying for a CL place this season BTW...

They’re different at home. But going away they’ve been comfortably beat by most sides with a couple of exceptions. At home, fully fit vs their injury crisis, we should expect a nice comfortable win.
 
Notgoing to lie, with all the time wasting, this win has been one of the most satistifying for a long time.

The time wasting was ridiculous. The ref warned their kepper at least twice but still continued to waste time and never booked. Their players kept feigning injury - at one point two at a time - and didn't even go off. They also had subs that didn't leave by the closest area of the pitch as they are required to. I don't really know how how the ref could be so naive that he could be manipulated so easily. They are so fucking simple.

I don’t think Ange sees it that way at all. He’s been very clear that aiming for 4th is a loser mentality. Aim to be the best. That’s how you win things. Being happy finishing 4th turns you into Tottenham where winning nothing is normal. If our players are happy never winning anything then that says it all.

Those kinds of comments are swerving responsibility.

Getting champions league football vs not getting champions is huge.
It's all well and good saying you're not happy just getting 4th if you're actually challenging for titles and trophies.

But we're not and we're not even in the top 4 or guaranteed of it. So it's a bit sad making those statements and getting praised for it.

We should aim to win the title, and if we fail, still finish in the top 4.
Not sit between 5th and mid table and try to claim that aiming for just 4th isn't an achievement.

Ask Villa, Newcastle West Ham or Brighton if they'd feel that 4th wasn't an achievement.

I'd like it if a goal was given if the ball is just slightly over the crossbar or just a fraction wide of the post , not really fair the way it is at the moment...😄

Jokes aside, I'd like to see shots that hit the woodwork recorded as shots on target.
The fact the ball can hit the woodwork and go in means it's either way really.
If you hit the post and it goes in, does that mean you scored without having a shot on target?
