Where We Stand On Boxing Day

25 points in the end then, plus the Luton game in hand.

Ahead of Chelsea, 3 points behind Manchester United.

I have a suspicion that Iraola might have saved his job… for now… :utc:

Who would think it...won the Luton game and we are above manure...albeit a very poor manure
 
What do we know about football?

This thread is a typical fan broadsheet and reflects on how we are being sucked in to The PL instant success quicksand!

Well done for sticking with Andoni…if he’d have been at Watford he would have been sacked in November!

We have a solid squad of adaptable players it would seem now being totally into the Iraola ways….which tbh are not at all bad!

The arc of mainstream media coverage of a 'little' club doing well goes...
1) Ignore it
2) Wonder how the f*** Big Club A has lost to said Little Club
3) Begrudgingly praise Little Club
4) Go overboard on praise for Little Club players, manager, owner, board etc.
5) Link every single player and manager to a Big Club
6) Question the ambition of any player from Little Club that doesn't want a move
7) Get bored and move on to the next one

Brighton are at stage 7, we are somewhere between stage 3 and 4.

They're an elite European team these days, don't you know ?

The media haven't yet recognised that we may have done the right thing in replacing GON.
