    Aye he did but that doesn't mean you should write off all the good work he's done turning around a club in free fall.

    Besides we may go up yet.

    Bottom of the Premiership followed by bottom of the Championship followed by 3rd/4th in League 1 with a Wembley appearance already is a significant turn-around. Anyone who thought we'd walk this league after the past couple of ****-up seasons wants their heads looking at. We have as good a chance as anyone in the play-offs and should be bloody grateful we're not scrabbling around at the arse-end of the table. We're lucky to have Jack Ross at the moment, quite frankly.

    Never said I was anti Ross, but 5 points from our last 4 home games is GASH!!

    And it’s likely yo cost us at least 1 more season in league 1.

    I CANNOT see us winning the playoffs.?

    Some lads on here should be kissing his feet instead of criticizing him after getting this cobbled together team to achieve what they have this season have you forgot what he started with.<doh> If we don't go up i expect a cracking season and we should piss it with a much stronger team.

    I really enjoy your comment on here "Lads." Just one question. I thought fans were getting searched going into the stadium, so how did the PFC fan manage to smuggle one it. I see the perpetrator was arrested, I wonder if fans around him, pointed him out to the pólice as a result.

    As for the match, the automatics are out of our hands. And is it possilbe that a team finishing nearly 20 points behind the 3rd placed team could get to Wembley and win the play-offs?

    The people who disagree thought Coleman was the Messiah, Simon Grayson gets teams promoted out of this league . Ross inherited a squad where the only thing needing correcting at this level was centre defence and goalkeeper..... he got 1 right. Tell me I'm wrong ?

    Cobbled together ? Its what happens in league 1, Warnock would have had us up by now. He's average.

    You think that turning a team from one that loses time and time again against any opposition to one that barely ever loses is nothing? You must really rate McLaughlin if you think he's the only one who deserves credit.

    Only thing that needed correcting was defence and keeper???? Who was going to play up front? Didn’t he have to buy strikers??

    Going all out for that cup did contribute to your current predicament, me thinks.

    We actually got stung on a couple of FA cup weekends when the teams we should have been playing in league one were still playing in the cup.

    Wembley Stadium should never have been re-built.
