re "2 points from survival"

thsi should be clarified. We weren't 2 points from survival because we did a good job - it was some other teams (esp, Southampton). If you'd told us at the start of the season we'd get 33 points mostpeople would think that was crap and we'd deserve to go down. Which it was. Just because 4 teams were crap and deserved to go down (which means one was lucky enough to survive) isn't something to be proad of and boast as an achievement. Yes, we had a small budget, which means we had to manage it very well and get team selection spot of in we were to prosper. Worthy didn't spend the money well OR get his team selection right often enough. He can be excused as a "young, learning manager" since it was his first season in the Prem but it won't be again. From now on he has no excuses for not at least doing HIS job better.
