This is a very similar thought of me and my family too. There is absolutely no point in carrying on if we are not going to reinvest at least 25% of sales back into the playing squad. At most clubs the sale of your top assets is a blow, but creates some excitement with the possibilities of who will be coming in and what direction we will go. Selling top assets to pay bills is suicide, we after the names above have gone, we have no assets of value left.

I've seen numerous people state the games we won at places with big attendances, so I'm not digging you out here Chaddy. The games you and others mentioned are games we didn't fall behind in. We have a weak underbelly, you are loyal to the core and I commend that but its a fact even the most diehard fan has to accept we often collapse when behind. With this weakness in mind, giving the opposition a lift (note I'm not saying the bigger crowd was detrimental to our players) by having a huge following in what was always going to be a close game was a terrible idea.

I just read Rich Sharpe's article, 18 points from the last 19 games is our home record. That is absolutely abhorrent!! The sweethearts must really dislike being challenged by the crowd.

It's a built in behaviour with these players. I've lost count of how many pre match press conferences I've heard whilst under Eustace, when the players come out with this bile about the fans needing to back them. It's actually offensive, as I genuinely believe the players are well backed in relation to have much shite the fans have to chomp on regarding the running of the club. It's an easy excuse, a cowardly excuse.

I thought he shanked the ball in for the third. Watching it back on the reply I realised he actually knee'd it in when turning around, then half arsed went after it. Awful!

This group cannot handle pressure. Simply they cannot handle the pressure of being behind. The current and previous manager have been categorically unable to turn games around. Recently we played very well against Leeds and Southampton, we never went behind. Equally we were absolutely atrocious against Sheff Wed and Bristol City, both teams that are equal if not of a lower standard but could find no way to turn up. Very, very worrying.

I know what has been said, my point is he knew very well what division we would be in last July when the talks started. He may well sign, I hope he does but it has taken a very long time.

I've just read an article from mid July 2023 saying we are well into negotiations with Dolan. These are some long old negotiations! Can't help but think, we are getting a year extension then he walks for free.

I hammered them midweek and rightly so. I'm so proud of them today though!! I questioned their minerals, they answered that. They do it without any subs which is no mean feat against teams with big squads. Super ball play by the front 3 for the goal, simple but effective football! Great Sammie finish. Defence did a great job, was good to see Carter back.

The thing that was most galling was the first two goals came from just literally walloping the ball to our defenders, for them to inexplicably fail to do the simplest thing in the game, kicking the ball. I don't think I've seen a player continuously fall over like Hyam did for the 3rd, their fans must have been pissing themselves. Don't get me started on McFadzean for the others .... the manager doesn't seem too worried though!

He does realise there is a bumper pay deal for staying in the Championship this year doesn't he? Wednesday go 1-0 up early, they are having a party at our place at our expense in the league.

This 100% . Let's not forget that largely this squad managed to achieve the nearer impossible last season and blow getting into the play offs. They insultingly managed to turn up for the second half of the last game of the season when the pressure was off. This group of players has managed to blow a comfortable gap at the bottom to now looking like the sinking ship of the league. Look at the reactions to the goals last night, some of the worst goals you could concede in the professional game. Not a single crossing of words!!!

As somebody said earlier that looked liked shirts handed to a group as they left the bus. How can we look assured and like everything is clicking into place on Saturday then Sunday League standard on Wednesday? I'm not surprised, hell this squad literally hasn't come from behind more than a couple of times in the last 2 seasons but Jesus 5-0 to a team on the beach!!!

Sammie looked finished on Saturday, why the hell is he still on the pitch. The subs made no difference, he should have been down the tunnel on 55 mins.

I thought we played very well against an extremely strong team whose subs that came on would probably all get into our first team. I was worried about Hedges going off for his denfensive cover but I thought Markanday was excellent and randomly loved a crunching tackle! Brittain had a great game, he has a very unenviable role of having to hold onto the ball for long periods of time without having a forward out ball. Sammie didn't seem fit at all, I thought he would have been off when he went down early. My daughter loved the day, although she thought the tannoy announcements in the Riverside were too loud. We've gained a new fan!
