Ban him, what IS he thinking!

Yeah sorry for showing a bit if faith and optimism,  i forgot where I was for a minute there..

 

For the benefit of the new fans who don't remember our hatred for newly promoted Leeds United, next season they will always be referred to as 'Dirty Leeds'. 

Credit to Leeds took a gamble on the manager and it has taken them two attempts yet back they are.

Got to be good for the game even if we have a bit of history with them.

 

Looking forward to reigniting the rivalry with Leeds United.

Younger supporters are going to understand why we hate them so much.

Think that might be an understatement mate 'a bit of history with them'  through the 60's 70's and 80's they were our biggest rivals, certainly in my eyes, wasn't around in the 60's, but as a young kid in the 70's I was taught by my Chelsea family, dirty Leeds and they were enemy number 1, as a teenager in the 80's and we both languished in div 2 together the rivalry was more off the pitch, both our promotions in the 80's were sealed with home wins over Leeds. They hate us as much, and sing about us to this day. Although I have enjoyed their demise over the last 16 years, it's good now to see them back. First fixture I will look out for, just hope us fans allowed in grounds by then. "We Hate Leeds"

Funny I was talking to some younger fans earlier in season (in their early 20's) and was trying to explain the Leeds rivalry, some of them didn't get it. O well, they will learn next season.

Assuming we have fans back in stadiums by then it will certainly be a lively fixture.

I will make a proper judgement once the transfer window closes, but based on current squad we'll be lucky to get top 4 because of our defence.

Well we're on course to get top 4 with our current crop of players, with the attacking players we're adding we'll at least out score our leaky defence on more occasions next season if it stays the same! lol

You need to take into account the other teams around us improving. Utd have already looked much better with Fernandes and I think teams like Spurs and Arsenal will do much better than this season. Leicester, Wolves and Sheffield have also been great and I think Leeds under Biesla will be ones to watch.

We would have definitely improved, but with this defence it doesn't mean much

An awesome job by everybody at club. I predicted 6th, rival fans were predicting bottom half of the league, but we have surprised everybody this season and finished 4th.

Based on current transfer activity or lack of it, this is what I think might transpire.

1. Liverpool

2. City

3. Utd

4, Chelsea

5. Spurs

6. Arsenal

I'm positive about Lampard getting the best out of the squad without a big name coming in.

 

Got the top 4 right and todays result right too, so won a bit on the bookies.

The first half was cat and mouse until we scored followed closely by a second and then we were professional.

Not been an easy season as we have not been consistent yet pleased for Frank as he did not have an easy first season in the top flight.

 

The forum was right, congratulations to us we know our team 

I'm still calling it tied 3rd on 66 points  ? 

Separating us on goal difference is unfair when you have a defence like ours trying to compete against the huge United haul of penalties and favourable VAR decisions ? 

Our position next season will probably be the same or similar. 4th, 3rd or 5th. I just think we will score more, let in a lot less goals and have more points. It is a gradual process.

Progression is important. Close the gap and move up a place next year. 
Midfield and attack is promising and if we are really clever in the market, a new keeper and defence and we could challenge.
