Wow calm down. I was merely talking about one player (Rowett) and stating a fact that 3 quarters of the season wasn't actually a massive car crash, we beat Liverpool and Chelsea at home after Christmas where Rowett was instrumental (scored in one I believe) 

 

The end of the season was shocking and a sign of things to come but Rowett was decent. 

I get what you're saying but what im saying is it doesn't tell the whole story. Like that awful loss to Bradford at home on new years day etc. You could see it coming a mile off. 

 

Even though we were 4th in April, i bet the vast majority of our fans predicted relegation the next season. The good start was seen as more like prolonging the inevitable rather than a great achievement.

 

I probably dont like Gary rowett because he told my mates dad that "what you have to remember is we dont give a shit what fans say, we are here for the money" after we waited an hour outside for some autographs. Shit like that stays in your memory :|

Fair enough, that's an awful thing to say. Maybe my memory is playing tricks but I always thought that the Wycombe cup defeat was the beginning of the end. Up until then we were high up in the league and a shoe in for the FA Cup semis, then Izzet and Savage got injured, Essandoh scored and it all went Pete tong.

I think the dam broke that day, basically.

Slightly off topic from the thread, but given the amount of photos of Peter Taylor and his signings, not surprising he's being discussed under "Unfortunate events".

 

I was living in London at the time & remember how brilliant that Chelsea game was when we beat them to go top - but will always vividly remember coming up for the Derby game a few weeks later in October... We scraped past a poor Derby team 2-1. I think we were 4th place in the Premier League at that point - unbelievable for us as a club - and yet we were complaining about the performance and listening to the phone-in on the drive home, everyone was complaining about how we were playing. How could so many people be complaining about being 4th in the league? - Because we knew at that point the team and tactics under Peter Taylor weren't good enough and things could go badly wrong if things didn't change.

 

My memory is that we were hanging on after that - turning out the odd good performance (actually looking back at the games, we did have some good results over that period), but we just didn't have any ideas in that Wycombe game - and as much of a shock as it was at the time, I think there were enough signs of it coming and it just became apparent he wasn't up to the job.

Theo looks like he's won a competition to have his photo with his favourite underachievers 

Ozil looks like he’s throwing gang signs - or predicting that they’ll finish below us. Quite uncanny.

Don't listen to 606 out here, but always wonderful to hear that clip again!

 

How deluded are Spuds fans? Apart from their recent triumphant Asda cup win, they've only won one league cup this century. And they still claim to be a 'big club' just because they are located in a huge fan catchment area, like Newcastle.
