He’s got the numbers mixed up, our 3rd best finish in 8 prem ones. Or we’ve just secured an 8th.

That's in the PL and is still wrong. Nothing before 1992 counts, apparently.

There was an article on the BBC that mentioned it. This season was our 8th best finish in 60 years, or rather we had only bettered it 7 times.

It really made me think but it's not quite true. I think it's 10th best

1962/3 - 5th
1970/1 - 4th
1971/2 - 9th
1972/3 - 5th
1973/4 - 12th
1974/5 - 12th
1979/80 - 6th
2018/9 - 7th
2019/20 - 7th

Edited due to poor copying skills being noted by those with amazing memories

Just a thought & according to the so called experts " Football only began when the premier league came-about "

I think we were relegated in 1975/76

You've got those slightly wrong, all the 1970s ones are out by a year. We finished 4th in 70/1, 9th in 71/2, 5th in 72-3 etc

So the conclusion is that someone assumed we'd hold onto 12th and then it would have been our (joint) 8th best finish in the league in the last 60 years. In fact it's our 3rd best PL finish and our 40th best finish ever.

I suppose we have to accept that the BT commentary team yesterday knew more about Hannibal the sub for Man U than they do about Wolves.
