This season is pointing toward the same result as 2013/14. Dominating the league by a margin not often seen in the Championship. Yep, so far, we are scoring a bit more and yielding less than in what we all agree was an exceptional season. No, I'm not crowning us or awarding us 100 points yet -- but that is not my point. Things have taken a 180 degree turn since May. We are going back up. And yet, instead of folks being over the moon ... there's an air of malaise over the forum. What gives? - Too much cynical, purely results-oriented keepaway football boring us? - Brainy Italian chief instead of charismatic Englishman? - Lots of really good, get-the-job-done players instead of an insanely charismatic striker, and eye-popping winger, both on their way to superstardom? - Too many dinosaurs in the fanbase who can't pipe down and just enjoy the results? - Or have we just become spoiled, entitled tw@ts after a decade of unprecedented success? - Combination of the above? Discuss.

This one's going out to the "Daka sucked' folks whose superior football knowledge allowed them to notice only the two big chances he missed ... Patson Daka = 7

That was a forgettable 3 points, but 3 points nonetheless.

Enjoy League 1 next year, Swansea

YUNUS MAKING HIS CASE

ALBRIGHTON. FOR. MCATEER. Thank you.

But unlike some recent second halves, I feel we're likelier to score the next goal.

Worse miss than Daka's

Looks like he's waiting to find out whether the jury is going to send him off to the big house.

Stats look decent, but it's anybody's game

Fine strike, better save.

That looked a handball in their box on the replay

Two minute lesson in taking v spurning chances

Used to be, you found a stream. And lo, you were bombed with ads, and Hot Asian Women wanted to meet you! Now you can buy a stream. And lo, you are bombed with KP ads, and Rich Asian Teenagers want the Foxes to win Albeit I've seen better voice dubbing in old Godzilla movies.

That's because we are 1/66 to get promoted. 66/1 to miss promotion. Do UK bookies flip it the other way? Bloody hell, enough on this.

Let me explain this... if they put 30K on us to NOT get promoted, they would indeed clear 2 mil if we don't go up. In other words, the market considers that prospect so unlikely, it would cost almost nothing to hedge their risk. They are moving the goalposts at the 11th hour over an issue that is provably trivial.

We are 1/66 to get promoted. 1/66 ! Throw the bastardi an extra 30,000 euros and they can place a bet that gets them their freaking 2 million in that case.

This clearly ain't happening until the thread hits 100 pages. More bad pasta puns and repetitious Fab tweets please.

Get minutes into this kid so we can at least make an informed decision. With FFP reshaping the market (especially the middle-income market), player values are dropping fast. We might be able to negotiate an Italian-style discount, or at least move some of the fee into incentives.

Any lesson young Tyler may get from this thread, is unlikely to be related to studies at university

This is really useful info and easy to grasp -- thanks -- But maybe you should change the thread title? Because I was expecting something more like

Disaster on wheels. And he's their regular starter. Wrexham, you know you NEED Danny Ward.

Do these like football then? Ease them in with 20% of the club, Top.

Big Daddy has been called over to the screen to review this call ... and clear as day, it is OVERTURNED ! That is unquestionably Youri Tielemans on his way to East Midlands.

Goals don't come cheap at the Premier League level -- check out transfer fees and pay packets for strikers. The way he carried the club through the spring of that COVID season three years ago was a big deal at the time. Won and converted the pen that won us the Community Shield too.
