    Aye, I don’t think you’ll be far wrong with those. Definitely believe it’s time for Neil, Cirkin and Patterson to move on.

    We'll needs some more homegrown / British lads in at some point. Will be tricky to do that and maintain the high value for money and ability we need.

    Good point and I’m sure the club will be fully aware of the need

    I think we should do the same with Rigg.
    Slap a £500 million release clause use on him.

    Doubt we’ll ever in trouble with that, our 3 reserve keepers are all homegrown so that’s a pretty easy way to play the system. Shame Hume didn’t join 6 months earlier or he would be. Mayenda may hit the criteria this is his 3rd season with us and he’s still 20?

    Still have Ballard, Rigg, O’nien, Mundle and Hjelde on top of those if we sold Cirkin, Alese and Neil.

    There was only 2 homegrown players started in the City Liverpool game for each team. I’d like us to have a few top English talents, even better if they came through our academy but it’s not really essential as long as we fill the quota with squad players.

    Now we’re safe from relegation I’m hoping we really go for the FA Cup and get the likes of Rigg, Cirkin, Alese, involved as well as the real prospects from the U21’s …

    … no reason we can’t win that trophy, none at all.

    It would destroy the Mags if we did <laugh>

    Far too early to be saying that. Thankfully, the club won’t believe that to be the case yet.

    No at all, it's what I believe and I arrived at that point on Saturday ...

    ... you might this differently but that's just your opinion.

    I don't care what the bookies, or anyone else thinks tbh.

    Who mentioned the bookies? I just think it’s a bit foolish to say this early on. Do I believe we’ll go down? No. Is it too early to assume we’re completely safe? Absolutely.

    You were quoting bookies odds earlier in the season but, tbh, I was just including them with everyone else who may disagree with me, not quoting you. You can think it's foolish if you like, or too early to assume we're safe, if you like ...

    ... that's just your opinion to which you're entitled, I've stated mine.
