    And so begins an almost Khmer Rouge style year zero clear out at the club. Maybe a bit extreme, but an analogy with the kind of impact possibly required to kick-start the future:

    1) A new and more optimistic nursery set up;

    2) Training facilities finally upgraded beyond those of a converted local dairy social club;

    3) On the field, what would appear to be the start of a Summer squad baggage removal process, leaving the door open for the likes of Ince, Lenihan, Watson, Townsend, Maguire and others to blossom;

    4) At last a real prospect of breakthroughs from those in the development squad who would under other circumstances be dumped for the cucumber pickers that Murdoch's League naturally attracts;

    5) We finally get to see Snodgrass blow the Championship apart;

    6) On the terraces, a gradual cleansing of the old bleating brigade, and the possible return for many real football fans. And proper awaydays again!!!;

    7) A new club name, which in reality changes nothing. (Lights the blue touch paper and retreats!!!);

    8) A possible 'devil you don't know' new owner if the words of our glorious leader are finally to be believed, and the wishes of the bleating terrace ego-trippers are to be prefered;

    9) The virtual facade of optimism behind the scenes at the prospect of a financially sound cost base on which to build a more youthful return to the Murdoch League in 1 or 2 years time.

    10) Above all, at least the true football fans can look forward to the return of at least one season of entertaining football next season in the best league in the world.

    (Of course, 2016/2017 could also see a return to third division mediocrity!!!!!)

    somehow I don't think Snodders will stick around.

    No one is likely to buy him after such a long term injury until he has proved his fitness.

    No one will be buying Snodgrass before January at the very least.

    And Ince won't be around.

    Adding,
    1. More involvement from the SY Police in rearranging kick off times to suit them and their overtime requirements. Sunday mornings kick off's against all the Yorkshire teams.
    2. 15,000 crowds at the KC will be considered good, and expect the guffaws and mocking from the local media about our 'fickle fans'
    3. Automatic promotion is not nailed on either.
    4. But I hope your optimism is rewarded because if we go the other way, it doesn't bare thinking about.

    I don't know why you persist on using this racist, factually-wrong statement. Yes, the premier league is overrun with Chinese, Russian, Iranian, Turkish and American players.
