Have we ever had a win described on here as "stupendous" before?


Davis in Team of the Week 2nd Apr 2024 16:27
Blues left-back Leif Davis has been named in the Team of the Week following his performance in yesterday’s stupendous 3-2 victory over Southampton at Portman Road. 6



Oh, and a well deserved place for Leif in Team of the Week

Town 5-3 Bolton 18th May 2000 18:16
Town eventually ran out winners of a stupendous play-off semi-final second leg at Portman Road last night in a game that saw Bolton reduced to nine men, have ten booked and concede three penalties. A hat-trick from Jim Magilton, a penalty from Jamie Clapham and a fifth goal from Martijn Reuser saw Town to Wembley for the first time since the 1978 Charity Shield. 6

You obviously keep it for particularly special games. You can't waste a 'stupendous' on just any old win, however decent it is.

Couldn't help myself. Had to give that a read. Interested to note the repeated references to nerves and anxiety in the crowd. Makes you realise how special this season is - we had no expectations coming into it and so no real nerves at this stage. Nervous energy maybe but no PTSD from the previous 4 years of failing. If the players are feeling the same as the fans at the moment, we've got a really good chance of going up.

Good find. That was a game that certainly deserved that description. I'm wondering now if Phil may have gone a bit OTT, even though it was quite a result. It doesn't leave much room to describe an even better occasion when we clinch promotion in the last match with a 90+12 minute winner.

That’s when he’ll roll out the ‘absolutely stupendous’, I assume, as an upgrade from simply stupendous?

Is splendiferous an upgraded superlative on stupendous?

Thinking about it, is superlative an upgraded superlative on stupendous?

Distortion becomes somehow pure in its wildness.
