Ahhh...shit. They've all blurred into one big mess of league one misery and nonsense. Remind me, what was the fuck up that year?!

Losing to Yeovil in the play offs.

Note how low down eventually promoted sides Doncaster, Bournemouth and Yeovil are.
 
That was the worst division since we've been down here. But instead of showing just a little bit of ambition in January, we chose to weaken instead and not bother with the formality that was promotion. Biggest boardroom fuck up since we've been in L1 and it cost us another four seasons here, at least.
 
Just goes to show, that even with the momentum we have this Season ......

One man can fuck it up ................. again

The whole period between Miller getting injured and Weir getting sacked could be turned into a manus on how not to run a football club.

Not that it matters now, but I actually believe last season was the weakest the league has been.
 
What wonders B'mouth have performed in 4 years. Quietly went about their business and now compete comfortably in the Premiership. Two sides to every coin, it shows what can be achieved if recruitment is smart, plus it requires more than just a dedicated manager to fulfill whatever potential the club has.

As for us..........what a complete waste of time, money, and whatever else we've been subjected to. Wasted hope, poor appointments, divisive hierarchy, small wonder we've been called the 'giants of Div 1'. Would happily be amongst the so-called lesser clubs in the Championship. We're about to enter the second half of this campaign, so a word to the not so wise at United; give Chris Wilder the support he needs and deserves. We've a fan-base who are fully behind their manager, so no cock-ups, fuck-ups, or implosions that will cause mayhem. Small miracles so far from Wilder and Knill, so with this in mind, give our management team the support they need to make promotion a reality this season UTMB!

Kinell, good spot Bushy.
I hope we lose the next four or five games now, so we can be in with a shout of going up this year :confused:

It's easy to say that, but this is the league table after last year's boxing Day matches:

http://www.statto.com/football/stats/england/league-one/2015-2016/table/2015-12-26

Wigan (Champions) were 6th, 8 points off the top.
Burton (Runners up) were 2nd, level on goal difference with first placed Walsall.
Barnsley (PO Winners) were 21st, 16 points off 6th.

Not quite sure of the point here....except one excellent half season alone won't get you promoted!
 



I could use this most excellent and sobering OP to re emplasise my oft made point about assumption, complacency and arrogance appearing on here but that would be smashing a slow full toss for six so I won't. :)
