Completely agree. A team gets the number of points it deserves at the end of a season. Blackpool performed way above their potential but in the end they showed that you can try as hard as you like and even scopre twice at Old Trafford, but if you defenders are very poor quality in the end they will make enough mistakes to lose you a game….

I disagree that “West Ham who do have the potential to be one of the leagues giants” – they have always been a premier league yo-yo team and cant be considered a big club, they deserve success no more than any of other mid>bottom table teams.

If O’Neill had been in charge of any of the bottom 5, bar Blackpool they would have stayed up. A good manager makes such a difference especially in a relegation scrap.

Did you know Birmingham’s win ratio with Zigic is close to 40% and without 18%… he got injured 9 games back….
