Aresnal / Chelsea took a dip this season 4th was on. But we were NOWHERE near good enough. In fact we have done well to achieve 8th.
i completely agree, at one point i thought the football gods were smiling on us, everytime we had a bad result one of them messed up. up until the last 10 games of the season the fourth place was still wide open. Newcastle started very good got a dip in form and we were above them at one point, then we started dropping points and everyone else started dropping points, the only difference is they got back to business, we are still trying to figure out what business we are in.
