This season, we've comfortably got to here and then given a team that started with FIVE regular Premier players, and 3 regularly on the bench in PL games (so this 'Reserve' team tag is actually bollocks) a damn good run for their money and probably deserved something out of the game ... Honour in defeat in my eyes. "Play fought with us for a while before FLOORING us" ???? Utter tosh. Some of the passing from us was definitely that of a decent Championship level team, hope surely for what we are really aiming at this season? I'd hardly call 1 goal and throwing on one of your best, international, players at the end to help shore it up (As well as another PL regular) a flooring! > Yes it was.
