We have been carried this year by RvP to an alarming degree but there have been some signs (from mid-October to mid-December when we won 7 and drew 1 from 8 league games and more recently where we've won the last 4 in a row and last night's game where we were fantastic) that we're not such an awful side. Not title contenders, clearly, but not the mid-table side I feared at times we'd become.

No-one on here has said that everything is fantastic and we don't need to spend to improve the squad.
Have you seen anyone say that? I haven't.
sorry but we are a shit side. we've had our worst season in god knows how long and you're trying to spin it round on me by giving me this 4th bullshit. sure you can statistically back it up by saying 'we're the 4th best team in the country', and give me some cack statistics about a run of good games we had.

but fact is this team has been nothing short of an embaressment over the past 8 months; from our defending, to the way we had to call a 34 year old striker back to help us, to the way the manager moans about everything, even to the way we play sometimes which is nothing short of dull and listless.

we are fucking lucky we have van persie because without him we would be mid table. but you cant sit there and try to justify our performances and season this year, because it boils down to ONE PLAYER, not the team.

but i guess whilst there's fans like you supporting the team things wont change.
