    Come on lads, be fair ABK should be called out at the front of the list. Absolutely piss poor for the first 2 and almost a third. Going off injured was the best thing that happened.

    I blame the maths! It's the maths that has relegated us!

    I love the bloke but Ralph has to take a share of the blame as the rot was setting in long before NJ took over although he somehow made things worse and Ruben worse still. Losing becomes a habit and we have been losing a hell of a lot of matches for a long time now.

    “I need to thank the fans because they have been with us the whole season and we have not given them a lot back. They have been amazing. In the away games they have supported us without any condition. With that support we can face anything”

    At least he acknowledges we have be served **** this season.

    It is actually quite refreshing to hear and probably the first time anyone at the club has bothered to acknowledge what we have had to put up with.

    Previously it felt very much like a ‘You will be served **** and you will enjoy it’ mentality.

    Guys… please can everyone stop being so negative?

    It’s tedious. There is so much to be positive about

    Don’t do it to yourself.

    We were gone long ago. It’s quite fun for me actually, reading a few on here finally being negative and angry <laugh>. This is how I was feeling when we actually had a chance to stay up.

    Forest looked weak from set pieces all game and it took until whatever time to bring on our 6 ft 7 striker. I have no words. We looked dangerous all game from set pieces but he just left his 20m arse on the bench. I'm not asking for miracles here. But what it just begging for tall pall after Lyanco scored and it still didnt sink in with Selles.

    Oh absolutely. I too thought we were done a long time ago (boxing day, in fact) and I came to terms with it. In fact, I'm quite looking forward to it.

    I’m amazed people are still getting angry. That’s long gone. I quite enjoyed that game, and I’m looking forward to next season for more madness.

    Things got stale because Ralph had absolutely no backing for his first 3 seasons in charge. Gao is really the one who started the downfall, and even after all of SR's mess ups this season, I still see him being more of the problem.

    Scored three goals away from home at both Arsenal and Nottingham Forest, came away with 1 point.

    Dreadful.
