Darned right they would have taken 2nd in August.
No doubt about that whatsoever.
If you had offered it to them around 3 weeks ago you would still be picking the glass out of your face.
Yes, it is just nonsense them saying that.
They had it won with three games to go so they will be devastated at not winning it.
It's a bit similar to us.
We would have happily taken 5th back in August but as we looked favourites for 4th and a CL spot on the morning of the Palace game I can't help but feel a bit disappointed.
But our let down is nowt like the scale of theirs.
Not least because they build themselves up to such a state they make their own players nervous.
The Kopites themselves paid a big part in the team's collapse.
