Was just curious
I have mates at work who want to miss out totally
I am more aligned with your opinion <cheers>

It's bollox though. Give me one example where a team that missed out on Europe built anything meaningful long term? It's a myth.

All it means is you climb up the table for a season, qualify for Europe two seasons later and end up flopping bcos the previous season's league position was just papering over the cracks.

If we want to sort ourselves out the problems are far deeper, within the structure of the club's heirarchy. We need to sort that **** out and playing in europe has fck all to do with it.

Tell your mates they're supporting the wrong club and to go join AFTV and buy Captain Scarlett blankets to wrap up in on cold winter nights <whistle>

McCallister will be back soon though. You have VD and Konate as CB which is your strongest pairing surely? Robertson will be back in January. You have a few youngsters come through that seem to be doing enough. It's your front men really that just need to keep scoring.

no one is sure when Macallister will be back* . Konate is fragile ( Quensaah is decent cover though ) and the last news on Robertson was "he is nowhere near" .Our biggest problem is we are still in every comp so no rest time .
*originally it was thought a week or 2 but they then realised damage to muscle was worse than thought .

That's a lot of trying too hard.

I don't think we need to miss out on europe to sort out the squad.

If you're asking would I prefer to miss out on europe so we have a better chance in the league next season? I'd still say no. I want to watch us play as many games as possible. And european games are always something to look forward to, even if it's some team in Azerbhajan. Why do you ask?

I agree, it's the right manager and players that will change things.Not doing well isn't going to help.

We've got Walsall and Sheffield Wednesday at home to beat an 100 year old club record so lump on Wednesday turning us over in couple weeks.

Enjoyed Swans tuning over a very workman like Baggies in a turgid one nil win.

West Brom have two giant centre halves, and they subbed off both for two even bigger ones.

Ale house football.

Record points total mate I've been telling ya all season. On for over 110 at the minute and I think you'll hit that number or at least get very near.

But, weirdly, it's the team that wins the playoff final that tends to stay up.
Villa, Fulham, Brentford, Forest.
