my bad...meant to say was only fit to play in one of the games!

Dropping out of the top four would be such an excuse not to spend as much as we do now. We have to get CL football. Plus, I like mid week football, it's so boring otherwise.

No octogenarian will sit their great grandkids on their knee, and with tears welling up, recall that wonderful year we finished 4th.

Trophies are what you play for.

Well if I reach 80 I won't be telling my Grandchildren about the season we won the FA Cup in 2012. We have far better tales to tell, and I would rather have a long term basis for success than one FA Cup and a period of mid table mediocrity.

4th place IS a trophy

Exactly - many modern football fans are thinking just like owners £££££££

Bill Shankly once said...

Directors don't come into it. They are only there to sign the cheques

Trophies are what's important - at least for the big clubs anyway

Fa cup is a nail on anyway...so 3/4th

Fa cup

Fa cup > 4th > league cup
