I was the target last night when the were telling me standard coaching terms were fake and I was full of **** also told me I couldn’t possibly have watched a player play cos they haven’t oh and also said that me and cam were apparently the same person
Just doing what a parachute payment club should be doing really, coming down and not being in the mix for promotion straight away would be a huge failure. I do think they should be thinking more long term though. They've been kind of doing the same thing repeatedly for years now with similar recruitment every year, constantly signing players that are in that weird bracket of too good for the Championship but not good enough for the PL. I think they'll come 2nd.
I can't see how it can continue which is a great shame ... ... it's been allowed to drift out of control with too many cliques, Mags and Mod favourites.
You could say the same for us though, it would be a struggle. Look at Leicester, they won the league with a better team than we’ve got, yet they’re struggling big time. Could argue Southampton’s side last season was better than ours now too - just look at how they’re doing It’s all about recruitment and survival in that first season, just find a way to stop up
It's a shame as for exiles and fans in general forums are such a great way to find out news, have discussions about the game, players let alone the general help you can find from the varied people that post
Absolutely, but there’s no complaints from supporters if they go straight back up - which they’ve got a great chance 2nd is where I think they’ll finish too 1) Leeds 2) Sheff United 3) Burnley 4) Sunderland
It's a bizarre strategy, instead of a plan to even attempt to stay up, they throw money at it, sack the manager then go again. It just seems a bit short term
One of my observations would be we have players who I think would look better in the premier league than they do in the championship. Patto Cirkin Neil Jobe Rigg Mundle Watson Le Fee It is not a bad base to build from. I would back Mepham to be good enough for a survival team. Isidor might well take to it. We would need to add, of course we would. But I would fancy a core of our group to relish the highter standard. In league 1 we were establishing a side ready to challenge the championship. We are doing the same again now. In my opinion anyway.
Sheff Utd have all the top teams still to play bar us. If they're trying to create a championship super team it'll give them more chance to take points off the others. We just need to do our job and try and be more ruthless going forward.
Exactly, we don't need to beat them, just do better than them. They have to play each other more and have more derbies than us ... ... they can't both get 3 points if they're playing each other. And they all have 'key players' who might yet be injured and out for the season. Hopefully the day after the transfer window closes.
Yeah they play Burnley next week. They also play us, Sheff Utd and West Brom in the space of 10 days. We need to keep the points ticking over
