Not out of context at all. I quoted an entire paragraph - which started with the words “I think…”; that’s generally taken as a reasonable indicator that what follows is an opinion.
You also mused about “…a tiered level of commitment…”, which is exactly what the DofE offers.
Your assertions now...
I wasn’t addressing what the army leaders or media may have been talking about; I was addressing what you promulgated. The DofE does indeed exactly capture what you typed about your own opinion.
If we can get 6th (and I really don’t think we realistically can - with that spot 6 clear points ahead of us), then we can get 5th (only 1 more point)…
Yes, that would be brilliant.
Think how much more they’d be shitting themselves as they faced relegation every season, and actually went down every season.
I’m solidly in the @hans kraay fan club camp on this one. Relegation every year forever would suit me just fine.
