        They consistently sell their best players, we keep ours and sign improvements (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:03:38
      - Nobody knows - We might have gone down playing last year's style (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 20:58:29
        
        You were adamant that we would have gone down that way... (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:05:17
        
        I've always said nobody knows (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 21:29:14
        
        You were strongly (relentlessly) arguing the case that Hughton's tactical chnge was needed (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:46:12
        
        or perhaps.. if Ruddy was out for most of last season (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, May 12, 20:59:23
        
        He didn't get injured though... and it was Hughton's choice to bring in Bunn and Camp (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:15:57
        
        Everything went our way last year really (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 21:06:43

      - what bullshit! (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, May 12, 20:51:36
        
        Okay then why are we not relegated? Why didn't Citeh and Chelsea challenge for the top two (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 20:56:36
        
        We have a decent manager? (NCFC) - lurd, May 12, 21:04:01
        
        I'd say he's competent overall, yes. (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:26:33
        
        City and Chelsea have under performed, we've over performed (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 21:00:23
        
        Second Season Syndrome (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 21:11:57
        
        How is it second season syndrome when we never tried to play like last season? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:24:42
        
        We've underperformed compared to last year though... (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:01:49
        
        we're not relegated because we've overperformed (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, May 12, 20:57:40
        
        So wages aren't relevant then... (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 20:59:54

        Sure they can, but saying wages should set in stone the differences between clubs is silly (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:06:24
        
        Of course they don't set it in stone and not one person has said it does (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 21:37:51
        
        Indeed - Wages are the most relevant factor by far (NCFC) - mr carra, May 12, 20:54:59

  - agreed - different from us (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, May 12, 20:47:31
    - Their squad wasn't much better than ours (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 20:51:12
      - they signed Berbatov (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, May 12, 20:52:50
        
        13 goals this season. Good but hardly replaced Demsey's contributions... (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 20:54:07
        
        Berbatov, one of the leagues best strikers on ?70k+ a week (NCFC) - lurd, May 12, 21:06:13
        
        Holt scored 15 goals last season...as for 70K a week, just shows that wages mean nothing (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:07:58
        
        Well ok Berba is clearly a better player than any of ours. (NCFC) - lurd, May 12, 21:14:09
        
        I've given him credit as far as transfers go... (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, May 12, 21:20:48
