Sums up a lot of how I feel about the current situation.

The Prem was a bridge too far, putting in a valiant effort, but not quite able to pull it off. Defeated by limited resources and unexpectedly - to some of us, despite being warned - strong and resiliant opposition (e.g. the charge by Wolves and Everton after changing managers).
However, despite falling short and having to retreat, there is a feeling that we are in a good position to regroup and give it another go next year, establishing a secure lodgement at the second attempt. |

Before people start wailing and gnashing their teeth, note that the sample for this estimate includes games against Liverpool and ManC. Things are perhaps likely to improve from there.

Was listening to Premier League wibbling on Radio5 while driving back from Lancashire to Gloucestershire last night. Every pundit on there selected Arsenal - Ipswich as their "banker" for a win to the former. Nice that the team was able to throw that back in their faces.
Edit: Villa - Ipswich, of course. [Post edited 15 Feb 21:08]

Thread | My takeways from the game
at 21:15 8 Feb 2025
Very pleased for Jack Clarke getting two goals, one of them in a characteristic style.
Phillips had a good game. As did Hirst.
Palmer is decent, particularly his long-range distribution. Lots of very long kicks, most of which fell to a Town player or where one of ours could run on to it. Claims well. Couple of sharp saves (particularly the one which ended with the disallowed goal).
As others have said, we may be struggling for Prem standard, but we've advanced some way beyond the Champ (even a team not comprising our usual starters). |

Thread | Guthrum's Calculated Final Table

Not the normal "Estimated" one. This is produced by multiplying the 6-game form thrice (or 2 x 6 + 7 for Everton and Liverpool) added to the current totals.
Not to be taken too seriously, just a broad guideline based on recent form.
