cambridgeshire canary 6,801 Posted September 30, 2021 (edited) Just a reminder. If 17th won't be accepted how would 20th go down with him I wonder.. https://www.times-series.co.uk/sport/national/19461863.daniel-farke-not-accept-17th-premier-league-offered-now/ Edited September 30, 2021 by cambridgeshire canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarydan23 4,060 Posted September 30, 2021 You wonder that, do you? You wonder how 20th would go down with Farke? I'll narrow it down by making it multiple choice; a) He'd be bouncing off the walls and would celebrate with a session at the Rooftop Gardens b) He'd host a celebration party involving Bolivian marching powder being snorted out of hooker's belly-buttons c) He'd be absolutely devastated like the rest of us 3 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Paddons Beard 2,450 Posted September 30, 2021 That was written on 22nd July? Not sure what point you are making CC? In July , DF has aspiration to finish as high a possible. Fast forward to the penultimate game of the season , and a win keeps us up . At this point DF's aspiration to finish 17th is acceptable? Somewhere along that time line his ambition changes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fact is that there are 96 points to play for, so it is still possible to have a good season, meaning that 17th would be a good enough conclusion, but as we saw under Lambert and Hughton, get a good run of results together and mid-table is still possible. It's a simple idea - you play to get as many points as you can and see where it gets you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yellow_belly 226 Posted October 1, 2021 I would accept 17th! (And would have before the season started) 17th is A LOT different than 18th, 19th and 20th! But as long as we play well and achieve a Top 26 this season, all is well 😂🤷♂️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
