    I think it was Crewe who for years had low crowds but every season produced one or 2 very good players through their ranks... kept them afloat for decades!

    I feel so sorry for this lad.
    Yes I know they are well paid, but AB has been so unlucky with injuries. His time is running out as a professional. It’s make or break for him methinks.

    To be fair Inver, there haven’t been that many I can remember;
    Andy Cole, Heaton, Shaun Goater, Luke Ayling, Semenyo, Webster, Kelly, Reid and Josh Brownhill are the only ones I can think of since the 1990s that have been regular Premiership players - over nearly 40 years.

    Help me out- I might be missing some….

    Some had high expectations and then disappeared after leaving BS3; Orr, Maynard, Basso, Elliott ….. again I know I’m missing some.
    I really thought Eliasson, Magnusson and Massengo might go on to better things but they’ve fizzled out.

    West Brom’s goals seem to have dried up recently
    With Leeds and Sheffield Utd dropping points yesterday, personally I think it’s perm any 2 from 3
    As for your chances of automatic promotion, you’re 8 points off second with an inferior goal difference so it will be a huge ask, but stranger things have happened
    Can we beat Leeds away, I doubt it and you have still to come to us too
    We are doing well despite the loss at Burnley and the others around us like Coventry, West Brom, Blackburn, Norwich and co are all faltering
    Good luck anyway !

    Stranger things have happened. We are due a win there - and they dropped points last weekend.

    Hey - how about you guys letting us have all the points on Good Friday?
    You don’t need them anyway - and you need to save yourselves for the playoffs - when (if it stays the same) we’ll meet again (there’s a song in there somewhere…!!)

    A lot of first team players OOC next summer. Depending what division we’re in, a few or a lot won’t get another

    Unless we go up, most will be offered new contracts imo, with the exception of Cornick , Robert’s and possibly Bell.

    Well done Hull last minutes of game grab a draw! 12 points left now to play for

    CRITICAL other games are WBA v Coventry & Coventry v Middsbro if these 2 games end in a draw // home win / Coventry win both

    CITY .................... PLAYED 42 points 64
    COVENTRY .......... PLAYED 44 points 65 ..... 66 ....... 69
    WBA ...................... PLAYED 43 points 61 ..... 63 ....... 60
    MIDDSBRO ........... PLAYED 43 points 61 ..... 60 ......... 60
    MILLWALL ...........PLAYED 42 points 60

    couple other combo's but with CITY HAVING 3 LEFT TO PLAY!!! .... WOULD BE 6TH

    6th place wouldn’t be disastrous.
    I’d rather face Sheff U than Sunderland in the playoffs personally.
