Nalis Posted 2 October 2016 Posted 2 October 2016 Comments section of today's game: http://m.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/37465186 Whilst comments about today's game being boring and how we'll probably finish mid table are fair, I love the claims of last season being a 'fluke'.... First of all, how can you fluke a whole season? One game, maybe but a whole season? Secondly, a fluke denotes that it was somehow lucky, when last season wasn't.
urban.spaceman Posted 3 October 2016 Posted 3 October 2016 An amazingly deluded Arsenal fan rambles on about some injustice yesterday but closes with this: "Not to mention that the referees owe at least one title to Arsenal (yes, I'm talking about last season, and 2013-14, and 2007-08)." https://discussion.theguardian.com/comment-permalink/84526885 Actually demented.

I just don't understand why we give this kind of crap the oxygen of publicity by spreading it on here. It's a thoroughly enjoyable read, in my eyes. I like the fact that Spurs fans are still so cut up about not being able to catch us that they are writing pieces like this. It's like when we won it last season; once watching the highlights got a bit tiresome, I spent some time online reading their comments. I think they genuinely believed they were the best side in the league, until they started playing like Grimsby. 3
Corky Posted 13 October 2016 Posted 13 October 2016 (edited) It should be noted that the one and only time Spurs were above us last season was the weekend of the 26th September before the impression is given that we clung on to them and pulled them back towards the end. Yes, we didn't have major injuries. Yes, the top sides not playing so well probably helped. But, we just were better than you virtually all season, despite you having a better team, manager, squad etc. I'd question why you weren't that close to us in the end instead of mocking a title winner.

Mods is it possible to delete all anti LCFC comments in this thread please Because there are fan comments, as fan comments, pundits and proper journalists have valid opinions. This is just click bait driven bollox that is singularly designed to attract outraged football fans. I am happy to read informed negative opinions. I would also in cases like this copy and paste the article so he doesn't get the revenue from the traffic generated by posting a link on here. 2

So we have been written off as title contenders many times in the recent past? I don't recall such coverage happening.

The next season we were written off again by November/December time. And pretty much all of last season we were written off as serious contenders. I'm saying they have a point, this time.

There's being hailed as title contenders (by the so-called "experts") before the season has even started yet or only a few games into the new season, and then there's the other situation when you're approaching the second half of the season, sitting atop of the table and pretty much every paper and pundit wants you to fail.
