It's certainly pleasing to see Collins is seeing a top-half finish as achieveable, I don't think it's a must that we finish in the top half this season though, for me, building on what we achieved last season could also be regarded as staying in the division again, many sides have suffered second-season syndrome, if we don't, and stay up, it's job done.

It's easy to say i'd take 17th now, but I really would.
Least he's not on Abdys cloud of Europe...
Here's hoping the lads have their feet firmly on the ground.

A fortnight ago it was a european spot, now its just top-half..
This time next week maybe mid-table security
Is there a pattern emerging..?

Phil Brown is a cunt.

Good work fella OK OK enjoy your fun after beating us. One thing is for certain - your win against us won't save your season and it won't wreck ours.

Good work fella My European dream? My only Europe excursion (that means “trip”, Billy) will be my holiday next summer. Don’t go thinking we will fall into the Hull/Tango trap of assuming we are the worlds greatest team because we won a couple of games. It turns out to be very embarrassing when you then embark on one of the worst ever runs in the premier league.

Stoke already have been suckered into the european quotes.. Paul Duffen made the same mistake, and look what happened to him..
In the blokes defence, his team were several games unbeaten & occupied a champions league slot..
Footnote: If you want to talk about embarrasment google 'Newcastle Utd' or 'Middlesbrough'

Footnote: If you want to talk about embarrasment google 'Newcastle Utd' or 'Middlesbrough' Erm I think you'll find if you actually saw the full interview where the supposed 'europe' quotes came from the question about Europe came from the interviewer. Abdy Faye played it down and just said they need to take every game as it comes and see what happens. He didn't go around with a bottle of champers talking bollox about how we are bang on for a europe play. So in short .. .. fuck all comparison.

Abdy DID NOT mention Europe. If you listen to the interview it is put to him by the interviewer in light of our position in the table at the time, and he actually laughs and goes on to talk about securing survival. Admittedly, he didn't say "Europe...you're having a fucking laugh mate" but he'd have been pulled to pieces on here if he had have done. Damned if you do, damned if you don't

I’ve just Googled “embarrassment” and it brought up a page on Tango man. It had a section on his on-pitch half-time team talk (with pictures), a video of him grabbing the mic and giving a sing-song at the end of last season and some pictures of him wearing a pink cardigan over his shoulders with sunglasses on his head.
I Googled “what a cunt” too and it brought up the same page.
P.S. You won’t find anyone at our club giving out the sound-bytes that Hull did last season. Fact.

I think a 10th-11th or even 12th place finish is definately where we will finish. A loss to Hull doesn't make us relegation contenders, no matter what a few PHW's say

Sorry to piss on your chips..
But, if I'm asked whats been the highlight of your stay in the Premier League?
I'm entitled to refer to the entire period..
If the question was.. whats the highlight of your 2009/10 Premier League season..?
It is gotta be this..
Question: What did Hull City do at Stamford Bridge (2009/10) that
Burnley FC Porto Tottenham QPR Liverpool Atletico Madrid Blackburn Rovers Bolton Wanderers and Manchester United
couldn't..?
