Once the initial SGE effect wore off they picked up less points in the second half of that season than they have in the first half of this one. And even in the first half of that season we had an easy home set of fixtures, beating relegated Derby (luckily), Birmingham & Reading, as well as Newcastle, Boro, Sunderland, Villa. plus a somewhat lucky win against the rags. In fact they went off the boil completely after the Boro game, losing 6-0 to Chelsea and failing to get wins at Wigan and Portsmouth that we should have had.moomba said:They were good enough to finish 9th last season.
Please let's not pretend that last season was some sort of Nirvana. We should have done much better than 9th but our players weren't good enough.
Has the MH effect kicked in yet only I haven't noticed?
Do you think we will finish higher than 9th this season?
