My challenge (for what its worth) has always been is for those who support the current state of play to have the confidence to write a proper rebuttal of articles like this, or give a critique of the current board's actions, and be prepared to back up their point of view with debate.
Sorry, but 'have the confidence' comes across as totally patronising, as does 'proper rebuttal'.
You have views of the current state of affairs that are not shared by others, of which I am one.
It is not incumbent upon me, or anyone, to justify their disagreement with you.
The fact that people choose not to respond how you demand of them in no way invalidates their opinions.
Separately, we have a policy of not allowing 'chivvying', for want of a better word.
That is to say, people are free to make any points they like.
Others are free to challenge those views.
Should the original poster choose not to engage further, then we don't allow others to continue to prompt them to respond further.
So, users (within site rules) are free to say what they think, but can have no expectation of others that they will respond at all, or in a way that suits.
WBA, Stoke and Soton still on for relegation, 35 points is safe this season. Just swap the result for last game for for this game for both WBA and Stoke around.
Problem is, though, Mojoor, that your calculation is flawd. In their last match Stoke and Swansea play each other. How can one team lose and thr other draw? ;wink

Wonder what that's like
It's that happy cheery feeling you get before a match, which lasts until about 2 minutes after kick off for the most part...
We just have to be.

I have no interest in whether or not you (or anyone) like or dislike the board/manager/colour of the beer trays etc.
If I see a post that appears to make a factual claim, and no source is offered, it seems reasonable to ask for a source.
If I disagree with interpretations of fact, I don't see why i shouldn't say so.
Isn't that exchanging views?
I lack neither the confidence nor the ability to write a critique, or offer rebuttals.
What I do lack is the necessary faff, since I can't see the point of using my time in such a way.

It's a discussion forum.
You made a comment, I replied.
How can that be 'vicarious'? Hence 'continue'.
Asking once (politely), in case someone has missed it is fine.
Come on Liverpool, Everton, Bournemouth, Leicester and Chelsea (Urgh)
