    Well as everyone moans about losing our "best" players I wonder who they actually are. How many of this squad would you say you would be too upset about if they left? Probably Townsend Mbemba and Laschelles and that's about it and even they arnt irreplaceable.
    Being optimistic I think the back four we have stumbled upon will stay and be tremendous in the championship. We are fine for keepers even if one does go.
    I agree a season in the championship could be the making of Mitro and de Jong and arma will shine.
    Colback will be at his natural level, Shelvey will do well and if we persuade woodman Mbabu and Arrons to stay that's the makings of a promotion squad.

    I don't know what the fuss was with that kit - I really liked it.

    We'll sell all our best players and get promoted.

    I went to Egypt on holiday just as this kit came out and the free towels around the pool were exactly the same colour.

    It's almost a cult kit now if ever there could be one. I have one.
    I'll wear it next season.

    Which, sadly, explains why no doubt that they were free.

    Sell nobody, their option is to play their ****ing hearts out next year or to see their club and international careers disappear into oblivion. Come on you heartless ****wits, you have shown us what you can do when you feel like it. There will be no hiding place from us next season, you had better put those performances in, week in, week out, or we will make your ****ing life hell until you either step up to the plate, or **** off to wherever. If we play with that intensity next season we will break all records in the Championship, for goals, points and wins. We are waiting, and watching.!!
