    "Improve year on year"

    What a absolute joke , Im sure Mr Cryne is laughing as well... as what a monumental stupid mistake he made in giving Davey the job to sink Barnsley FC

    In four years time I want to be in the Premier League with Barnsley Football Club," said Davey.

    That's a prediction is it ?</p>

    I predict I'll shag Carmen Electra this weekend then.

    Good reasoning - those two scenarios are almost identical

    Carmen thinks so.</p>

    Pretty liberal interpretations of 'prediction' on here.

    I seem to remember Mel Machin saying he would get us into the 1st division

    in 3 years. Had the decency to resignwhen the 3 years were up too (even though technically he had). :D

    I gave Gemma Atkinson a broken back

    She fell off some scaffolding that I erected. I may get a shafting from Claims Direct

    Saying the things PC wanted to hear at the time I think.

    Got the job and then anice new 4 year contract. Talked the talk but the trouble is, at some point you actually have to back up what you say. That's could be a bit of a stumbling block methinks!</p>

    The word "predict" is obviously synonymous with the word "********" as in "I want to be in the Premiership in four years" bullshitted Simon Davey in 2007

    So we'd prefer...

    ...'I'm just hoping to keep us in this division to be honest.'

    I think you're all forgetting that his predecessor was sacked for, in part, suggesting the club would never get back to the Premiership.

    He's said that there are milestones to getting us there - I presume that's the organisation behind closed doors that PC spoke about in the Summer and PC's now said sole focus must be on the playing side.

    I understand why people want him out, I'm not that fussed on him to be honest but don't you think trawling through the archives of sites (to read something into he said when we were 8th in the league and he'd signed a new contract) is a bit pathetic?

    Just pointing out that mere survival isn't good enough for Simon.

    Cos Simon says so. That's Simon saying it and I seem to remember the previous manager being sacked for saying survival and consolidationwas the target!
