There is a growing fear in the pit of my stomach that we'll qualify for the Europa Vauxhall Conference.

I'd rather we just lose our remaining games and give someone else the 'privilege' of competing in Murmansk in mid January.

Give the new manager clear weeks between games with which he can integrate new players and get his ideas across. Chelsea and Leicester have recently benefited enormously from taking a 'gap year' from European competition, and I think we would too.

It’s not where I want us to be but I think I’d rather be in that than nothing at all to be honest. At the very least it’s a good chance for many of our youngsters to start games and that could prove invaluable going forwards for them.

As long as we treat it as experience for our fringe/U23 players, it could be a positive. The first 11 should never even be in the squad.

Kudos to you two for even getting a third, let alone the fourth. I was simply rephrasing Power’s “three or four” quote.

Aren't you a little embarrassed by how your supporters are behaving? I think we all understand the grievance but to take it out on the opposition coach is just wrong.

Most protestors were peaceful, but as with all demonstrations there will be a more aggressive element, some of whom will be nothing to do the cause, but hijack it, infiltrate and agitate because that’s what they do. Some want to cause problems for the club. This is why the laws around protests are becoming ever more restrictive. There are always a minority who cause trouble. That doesn’t reflect on the club or the vast majority of fans, whether protesting or not.

we are taking a gap year from Europe so that we don’t have to go to the middle of **** knows where to play a team that no one has heard of and whose name scores 29 at Scrabble.

A gap year would be good to regroup and aim for 6th next season :(
