They clearly didn't have that mentality. They tried their hardest and were going for the win. They just don't have the quality to capitalise. Your take on Saturdays game baffles me tbh. Yeah absolutely no sign of aiming for a draw at all. Probably amongst the most possession, crosses, corners and s...

Well I can't help you see.

Coppell and Stam? Don`t let the fact we reached the play-off final cloud your vision, the football was horrible, and so it proved in his 2nd season when teams figured out how to play against us, 7 wins in a calendar year told it`s own sorry story.. Best football we'd played in a long time. Not quit...

Yes - both were playing at 50% and had nothing to play for. Still enough to comfortably beat Ince's negative hoofball. Not for me, I'd say Hunt has brought minor differences, but not improvements. Instead of just hoofing it, we have a little bit more energy, but just as little quality. Well Hunt is...

Strong chance Blackpool is mid-week as well.

Having watched the highlights back, we did have a fair few chances. We had lots of possession around their box. We just couldn't make it count. We're so used to having so little of the ball (average 42% ffs), we didn't know how to attack while controlling the game and the opposition defence was bac...

Noel has shown nothing to get the role imo. Same form as under Ince, played the youth then binned them again quickly. No real improvement in play other than a bit more energy. He isn’t ready to be a full time manager. I think we should be top 10 next year. There’s an awful lot of crap in the divisi...

Hudders will get at least a draw I’m sure. Prob a win Do think on further reflection our performance against Wigan was really poor. Big crowd, opposition basically down, needing a win and we barely raised a whimper for the majority Having watched the highlights back, we did have a fair few chances....

Yep can't blame anyone else, any team deserves to go down when they haven't won for 12 games and ours has come at completely at the wrong time of the season. Just got to hope that Sheffield United beat Huddersfield and then there is a chance. Just the 2 wins in 22 league games. Given we're unlikely...

Winston Biscuit Which teams are people most looking to playing/travelling to if we go down?

Looking forward to some local games, Peterborough, Stevenage, maybe Cambridge with a bit of luck. Might go down to Exeter and catch up with some friends.

Not really. Even if Rotherham lost both their remaining games 3-0 then Reading would still need to win by 3 goals or better at Huddersfield and to be honest I think most would accept that it'll probably be struggle to even get a shot on target at Huddersfield, let alone bag 3 goals. Still strange t...

Utility players are very useful, Hoilett and Yiadom and to a lesser extent McIntyre's versatility is invaluable. Fornah's just not one of them and needs to play CM.

I'm genuinely not so sure that a manager would last that long if we were to be labouring about in 16th in League One, even with all the changes that we will need to make this summer. I'm still expecting us to be in the play off places really at a minimum, anything less is an underachievement in my ...

Yep, no worries. On my mind to do the number crunching, thanks for saving me the effort digging up the thread.

One of the reasons why going down may well help us, is (assuming Dai can stop being such a massive fukwit) that we can get off the managerial roundabout and give someone decent a chance to build something over a prolonged period without the threat of being sacked at a poor run with relegation loomin...

IiRC SCIAG thinks Stam was hard done by, so his judgement is highly questionable.

Warnock is a divisive character, but football is a results game. I'd have had him if it means we finish higher in the league which based on his record (which speaks for itself), we probably would have done. Again, Warnock has only finished above us twice in the last 10 years, despite everything we'...

He seems quite good at ball retention, finding some space and turning his man. He's not slow. I know we said this before, but to me he's an earlier less flashy but potentially more effective Ejaria.

Don't know how the EFL would view a club receiving income via non-football related soruces. What is the difference to clubs having hotels and sports villages? I never liked the idea of REP. The Thai's were asset strippers and only had their own interests at heart. We would have lost crucial car par...
