The Pespective Thread

[degreeinblue]

I bet everyone who wanted an end to signing Wigan players feel stupid now. We would have definitely won 3 world cups. And for the record I still think we'll come 4th.

I guess we'd be talking 2 standard deviations above 'normal'.
What's normal?
2 standard deviations less than 'unusually large'

We are yet to establish normal here.

 

[deipnosophist]

We are yet to establish normal here.

That is THE philosophical question for the ages

6? 7? 8 feet? Is that normal? I've lost all sense of perspective

 

[deipnosophist]

6? 7? 8 feet? Is that normal? I've lost all sense of perspective

Haven't we all? And if all of us have, is that normal?

 

[bluemangroup]

Haven't we all? And if all of us have, is that normal?

Oh [Poor language removed]. I feel dizzy. I think I'm going to be sick.

We lost at the same stage last season and the feeling was one of complete and utter despair.

It had all the feel of an end of era and sure enough it was.

This time there is no such despair....there is massive disappointment that we have gone out the Cup at Arsenal.

There is a feeling that we are on the up and we are merely reaching the end of the beginning.

Very good this.

Or the beginning of the end

Well that just makes me sad.

Tongue in cheek mate, we are always sad aren't we ?

 

[ijjysmith]

Tongue in cheek mate, we are always sad aren't we ?

At least 5 times a season mate!

We're going down next season.

Ijjy, that's a tad pessimistic of you mate...strange for someone so inherently positive

Actually, I have a horrible feeling that next season will be tougher than this one. Spurs and the RS will spend (again) and will start to gel better than this season. Our best striker will return to his parent club and Pienaar and Osman will be another year slower. Gibbo will play three games and get injured again and Kone will dye his hair an even more ludicrous colour.....and then get injured.

Our Monaco striker will return to his parent club and be the second highest scorer in that league and Jelavic and Anichebe will both score 20 league goals in the PL. Jelaivic will also score the goals that win Hull the Europa league.

Hopefully I'll be proved wrong on some of these....

Turns out it was a terrible joke that nobody got!

We'll be fine mate.

Thing is I want us to be more than fine! We all do I guess.
