"Second placed Charlton are unbeaten in seven league games and should have too much firepower for over-achieving Barnsley, who have flattered to deceive in recent weeks" Errrrrrrrrrrm?????? W*nker.
Wouldn't have it any other way Rather be the 'unfancied underdogs' any day, and besides, in many ways we have no right whatsoever to compete with the likes of Charlton because for the last 10 years we have been operating on different planets. As in the other thread, the fact that WE know the lads are capable of giving them a game makes such a refreshing change we just need to enjoy it - sod what the 'experts' in the media (who no doubt haven't watched us play this season as we haven't been on Sky) think! And a slightly moot point I know, but I personally don't believe we have seen the best of this side by a long chalk... there is more to come. For me, we have played really well for 45 mins against Scnuthorpe and Plymouth, 30 mins against Bristol City and 20 mins against Cardiff - the mark of a good side is getting results in spite of this and THAT is what excites me most. Can't comment on away games as I've yet to make one this season. Howard, Mostto, Odejayi, JCR and Kozluk all have more to offer yet... (yes I do include Howard... despite the 'interest,' £3m price tag and 6 goals he hasn't started as well as last season IMO and will get even better as the season goes on).
Look at the facts... ...then ignore them and go for the predetermined stereotype. Clever. So long as the flattery and the deceiving carries on, that's all that counts. <EDIT> That was meant to be a reply to the main post, not Spartacus in particular, by the way. I'm allus doing that.
If we were to have a good season It's fair to say the national press will be their usual condescending selves when it comes to passing plaudits our way . I love it when the media and opposition fans treat us with such contempt . The taste of victory becomes so much sweeter because of it .
Amazing Amazing how a reporter can come to such a conclusion without actually watching us play which is more than likely the case.
If I was Davey, i'd have that enlarged, printed, and pinned on the changing room door. Lets make the fcuker eat his own words!!
Hes a *****, he slates us off every week!!! Iv emailed the sun to complain but they wont give me an email addy for him!
I think its the fact that we are over achieving and flattering to deceive at the same time. Isnt that grammatically impossible.
RE: I think its the fact that we are over achieving and flattering to deceive at the same time. Exactly!
