Quote: Gazwire "I'm perfectly aware of that thankyou Wire 71. Fundamentally however, we were top, and using you're stated guidelines- top deserves it- we deserved to be GF winners.
Also Wire71, your misquote of my post (above) differs greatly from what I actually wrote (below). Or did you just make the above up to discredit my point of view and support your point with a sense of verisimilitude.
Finally Wire71, if posters of other clubs view my views on the semifinal outcome as overly optimistic or deluded, that's their problem. Last time we played saints (at their ground )a few months back, we should have beaten them, or at least got a draw. You can be as pessimistic as you like, but don't criticise others for their optimism, especially by backing up your view with falsified quotes.'"
I never suggested you said we were "not far off". I was referencing this viewpoint expressed by others. I did not attribute this quote to you. Also if you refer to other people's posts as "diatribe" because you don't agree with them it is not conducive to debate. That's one thing I do not like in this forum - the way contrary views seem to bring out the worst in people. I respected your viewpoint even if privately I think you are living in cloud cuckoo land thinking we will win the GF.
