Can't decide who I'd rather see fcuk up promotion out of Leeds and Leicester. Is Ipswich and Southampton as top 2 still a possibility?

I've amended my original post but I'll reiterate, players like Knibbs, Wing and Smith are now the older experienced heads and they've really led by example. Pure speculation on my part but, given Hutchinson's post match interview at Shrewsbury, I wonder if he was chirping in the background. If you ...

I seem to remember from video clips of the incident, Selles was saying "Have a go at me but cut the players some slack". The upshot of a lot of that flack is that the more experienced players who should be providing the experience guidance and level headedness to see out games haven't bee...

They must be in serious trouble if they stay down. When the IDC's judgements are published on points deductions, they always detail aggravating and mitigating circumstances. What would it be for Leicester? 12 points for FFP breaches, doubled to 24 for being massive dicks about it? :lol: If Leiceste...

The Athletic estimates their revenue will hit c. £20m this season due to the US presence and sponsors that the TV series has generated. That's a mid table Championship budget. If they can hit those sort of levels, promotion from L1 is definitely achievable, but probably beyond them next season give...

If next season starts well, I can see the average attendance reaching the 17k mark. Good for the team and also good financially. 3k extra tickets must be about £50k more revenue a game, so c. £1m a season which is significant in L1. Fixture list will have an impact; midweek attendances are always lo...

Benchmark for me are the Portsmouth and Bolton away games. What did they have over us, to turn us over so emphatically. Style of play? Fast wide players? Quality of player in certain positions? Match off against that with what we have now and we would be just fine, if we can find that type of playe...

Now safety in L1 is pretty much guaranteed, I wonder how quickly the takeover will move. The expectation of EFL checks was 3 - 4 weeks (I think they mentioned this to STAR) and we're about 2 weeks in. What else is likely to be a deal breaker? I always thought the biggest threat on the buyers side w...

Given the last few years I'm not sure we should really be lolling at clubs with batshit mental owners seemingly intent on screwing the club into the ground. That said, £3 billion? Just how could a stadium cost that much unless you're using it for money laundering purposes? Clubs are always going to...

After Oldham’s great escape in the 92/93 premiership season I’d never take anything as a given until we’re mathematically safe. I am pretty sure Oldham were 9 points behind Palace with 3 games left and survived. I remember thinking we were safe in 2007/8 and that ended badly. Obviously, I am very c...

I think Elliott could be a massive player for us next season. Technically he looks like our most talented player, he can find space, play between the lines, take the ball on the turn. Give him a summer where he can bulk up a bit in pre season and find the right role for him in the middle and it coul...

Selles - great to see that emotion come out last night - sign that they believe the job is done. As the players came over, he was gesticulating wildly at his team on the bench to get everyone involved. Those sometimes-weird moments earlier in the season where he insisted players applaud the fans st...

Only 2 teams have completed the double over us this year: Portsmouth (unsurprisingly) and Shrewsbury (surprisingly). Barnsley have the chance to join that list on Saturday, as do Blackpool on the final day.

I think for the top clubs season ticket holders and the hard core really are an inconvenience. If you could sell all your tickets to tourists or armchair fans enjoying a one off big day out, they would all spend far more money than the hard-core bunch. But there are only a few teams who fit this cat...

Birmingham City getting relegated after sacking Eustace for Rooney would be objectively hilarious. They spent ages fighting their previous owner like we have with Dai, but it could their new ambitious US ones who finally take them down with one of the worst ever managerial decisions.

Nobody will even make 100 this year. A bunch of pretenders.

It's a question of when not if, but I'm going to Barnsley on Saturday so I selfishly want it to be then. Most underwhelming would be if it happens in next week's midweek fixtures when we're not playing.
