    If they don't go up they are ****ed financially. It's a massive gamble

    They really aren't, they have over 20 million head room in next years ffp/psr before any player sales

    Was not a surprise losing, but I did not expect that hammering
    We have nothing to play for, they are fighting for their lives
    Before today they had only won one game in the last 18, think on that !

    Can’t see them not going up now, relentless and score so many late goals

    People are right to slag the players off for lack of effort and being clueless. That is where a good manager comes in and puts the fear of God into the players. Speakman ballsed up sacking Mowbray, appointing Beale, then sacking Beale and appointing Dodds interim, recruited ****e in the last 3 windows and let any sort of experience leave the club. All roads lead back to KS I am afraid. All the good he did at first is in danger of being undone. Get rid in the summer and get someone in who is up to the job before it is too late. If he stays we will go down next season as he is incapable of admitting his mistakes and will carry on down the same path.

    Maybe not ****ed, but they'll be restricted and won't be chucking about £30k a week contracts to the likes of Kieffer Moore

    Again, no they won't be restricted. They are operating well within the rules

    So they HAD £18.4m headroom rather than they HAVE £18.4m head room. This is where they were a year ago and they've spent big since

    If you do some googling they have around £20 million headroom for next season without selling anyone.

    They have actually spent less than us and their wages are around 90% of their turnover which again in within psr rules

    They haven't mind. Just 3 players signed for fees totalling around £5million.

    Bravo, I happen to think they are very well run and their owners are improving their infrastructure as well as trying to get up the league.

    It's easy to say they are badly ran or cheating, but the truth is they are doing well

    Didn't say they were badly run, or cheating. They are gambling the farm on going up this season despite what you have googled.
    Nor does the way they are run reflect badly on the way we are run which I guess is your point
