...and I have to say, I kind of know what he meant. Even if I wouldn't have put it quite like that.
That, and some of the exchanges below, made me think - is it just me that thinks this hasn't quite *felt* like a promotion season, at least at times?
Just seems like quite often we don't seem to be that good. And it's often felt like a defeat is coming. And yet - we keep winning, and we're 10 points clear.
Is it something different this year? Or just some sort of covid lockdown miserabilism, and we're actually as good as we've ever been, and as good as the points total suggests?
