Truly is. Been a drab end to our season in the league and Cups... Be interesting to see who else comes and goes in the summer apart from the obvious ones we know about...

OrangeKhrush 296 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 what a finish to the season. January started off with a loss to cambridge and a draw to Watford, by mid january we had 1 win and sat last. We finish on 49 points which is our highest finish since 2012. Howe did that happen.

OrangeKhrush 296 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Southampton will have a tough summer, something tells me that James Ward Prowse will want out if someone comes in, *hint hint*. Then again I don't like them and that muppet of a manager. Arsenal for all the doom and gloom did very well, and Leicester did far better than it appeared at times.

Administrator Stan 18,364 Posted May 22, 2022 Author Administrator Share Posted May 22, 2022 Fifth consecutive top-flight top half finish for the first time ever. Despite our success in recent seasons it feels weird saying that, and with being 8th this season it's a very odd feeling to be somewhat disappointed with it with how the season has panned out. Definitely room for improvement especially defensively. We scored plenty of goals, but lapsed at the back on far too many occasions. A relatively lighter schedule means I'll be expecting top 6/7 next season as well as a decent cup run in either competition - perhaps even win one of them. It'll be tough to compete with other clubs vying for those same spots though. The top 5 as they are now will only grow to be stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honey Honey 3,767 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 That's it, season done, expectations next season. The fun might be over, or it might not. Let's see how we get on. Looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inverted 1,776 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 I used to think that Fernandes was maybe a good player for a shit team - ie. he constantly hits shots and Hollywood passes that no actually good team wants to see, but they help if nothing else is happening. But now it seems he might actually just be shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I think we're completely fucked. Pope will go. Tarkowski. Mee. Taylor. Cornet. Our new owners are dodgy and will land us right in the shit. All the work dyche did to keep us there for years and earning us a lot of money is gonna unravel inside 12 months. They've put next to nothing of their own money into the club and the rest in loan's. Another Derby in the making here. Not even got a new manager yet and don't want that useless twat Jackson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrangeKhrush 296 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Joelinton was stretchered off on 11 minutes, the positive is that it wasn't severe, but it was a very deep laceration on his foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickasaw 28 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Burnley will be back in the PL one day because they have a long history of being in the top flight. Norwich and Watford too but who knows when? Well done my Spurs, it was your revenge over Arsenal and well done Son. Chelsea finished only 3 points ahead of 4th place......hmmmmmm. Not sure what they'll do next season and Ten Hag is an unknown quantity. West Ham I think are past their best and Moyes will probably stay one more season. Southampton finished the season poorly and I think will struggle next season as I think will Brentford. Wolves? A struggle I think next season but watch out for Newcastle. Leicester? I just don't know and the others will do pretty much the same as this season with City and Liverpool leading the way again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know because my team was relegated but came up again the following season. It's often better to do well in a lower division than to struggle in a higher division, better for morale. But anyway C and B, good luck for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Palace Fan 3,400 Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Good win for us. I'm sure I've mentioned it previously but supporting Manchester United in 2022 is childish so its always a nice occurance to take three points off of them.

Subscriber Dan+ 1,915 Posted May 24, 2022 Subscriber Share Posted May 24, 2022 I'll do a detailed write up when the thread pops up no doubt but it's nice to finish strongly for once. A bad season overall for me and yet we still came 8th. This squad is good, with some tarting up we can ruffle a few more feathers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
