Righto, I get it now. I blame Rafa for it only being December instead of March and for not devising a way to get us through to the QFs of the Champions League already. :Oo:

Just pointing out the flaw in the "everything is rosy" view you portrayed. Nothing is won in December, we've been in the last 16 of the CL before, been out of the Carling Cup by now before and been right up there in the league before (maybe not that often)

Give him credit for those as achievements when they're worth celebrating, of course if in MAY you want to celebrate having been joint top and in the last sixteen of the Champions League in December then knock yourself out. I'm sure whoever is celebrating winning one, t'other or both competitions will think you're a bit of a t1t. I suggest you try that line on a manc forum, you'd be laughed off the forum

Well forgive me for saying so, but starting a thread looking to point fingers and assign blame when we've had our best start to a campaign in years (as your stats have borne out, BTW) is laughable. My response was tongue-in-cheek and meant to highlight the folly of blaming anyone for our season so far. I'm not suggesting we've achieved anything yet but nor do I think we need to launch an inquest into what's wrong with the team or the manager either. So, what I'm really saying is that anyone who can't take some satisfaction with how things have gone to date and simply must nitpick about this concern or that problem at every turn needs to get a grip.
