Fine by me, but I think you'll find you laughed at RwC's dig at him - when, in fact, he predicted midtable mediocrity and a bit of doom and gloom - which you've just said you would rather predict and be wrong rather than convince yourself that we'll go up and we don't.londinium Royal Lady I think you will find that most people nailed their colours to the mast at the beggining of the season. Some rightly or wrongly, and fair play to those who put their hands up when they were wrong.
Personally I stated we would definately be in the play offs, more than likely top two and thought we would actually win it. So I am part wrong and part right. The most important thing is actually what the club does and not what people tink they might do.
I would much rather predict doom and gloom and we go up than be up beat and we end up midtable mediocrity.
Lets all just stop this bickering like 4 year olds and defending the old man or other half like little school kids and hope that Reading FC do what needs to be done and Colin does us a favour.
I suppose I have the benefit of knowing Floyd. He's an old grump 99% of the time.Arch There's a world of difference between sticking your neck out to make a prediction (e.g. I think Brum will be promoted) and sneering at other people for contemplating the possibilities that might take us up. "Give it up - it's all over. Why do you people do it to yourself?" is the height of overbearing arrogance and you should expect to get ridiculed when your smugness gets wafted back into your face by events.

Only 99%?
Royal Lady RwC - loves to gloat at other people when something they've said doesn't come through. What, exactly, have you stuck your neck out and predicted this season?

Yeah, he's pissed the other 1% of the time.

If it's any help, I can confirm that RwC PM'd me to predict that you'd use rollyeyes in that post.
Should have bet on it!
bobby m's syrup Floyd's football knowledge and reasonableness make him the one of, if not the most, consistent and accurate of commentators on these boards. Personally, on this occasion, I am happy to see him proved wrong, but I was just as convinced that it would all be over by 7.15, as were, (I am sure), the vast majority of nobbers

This * 1000 percent. Floyd may post like an old curmudgeon, but inside he is still that 10-year old RTG perched on his father's shoulders at Elm Park.
Floyd has forgotten more about football than I (and some others on this portal) have ever known. Take the piss out of someone else, he doesn't deserve.
Maguire Really worth its own thread? No.
