Looking forward to the lap of dishonour.

How is the 'project' suppose to move forward with our current recruitment team and, reportedly, only frees and loans as transfer options? 14 goals from our half-a-season man needing immediate replacement, and more goals required to have a realistic chance of improving on this season. Next season could be a really nasty shock for a lot of people, including JDT if he's still around.

Remember what it felt like to actually win a match? No, me either.

Why make the changes 10 minutes into the second half when it was obvious to everybody that they needed to be made at half time? Pure reactivity to going a goal down.

Yep, that'll be it. Might as well turn off the TV and do something better with your time folks. JDT's Rovers don't do comebacks. Or score goals.

Is Dack really so unfit that he can't play 45 minutes in a crucial match like this? He's the only player who I'd trust putting the ball into the net right now. Crazy to me that he sits on the bench whilst Dolan, Hedges and BBD make scoring a goal look like the equivilent of solving the problem of quantum gravity.

Good squad players if we don't need to rely on any of them to score. Unfortunately that's three of our four primary attacking options. With that said post-December Diaz isn't even a good squad player. He's terrible.

Dolan > Dack Diaz > Traffic Cone Hedges > Thomas Make it so.

Dolan, Hedges and Diaz genuinely look like they'd struggle to score in League 1. Good luck Villareal.

Considering how poor our GD is, I wouldn't feel particularly aggrieved honestly. Getting smashed by Rotherham, Reading and Preston means we get all we deserve on the GD front.

Could we not have just put a traffic cone on the pitch and stuck a picture of Diaz's head to it? At least the ball would have a chance of ricocheting off the cone into a dangerous position. Maybe something to consider at HT.

Always thus. We play better when we're the ones doing the counter attacking. Us dominating possession is the worst thing that can happen.

You know what that means.

It's almost like they're being paid not to score.

Twice in two seasons no less.

Keeping in mind the goal of buying Brereton for £7m would surely have been to develop him and then sell him on for a higher fee, as would have been perfectly sensible, you do have to assume that a sale of Wharton for a hypothetical £20m would go to redressing the loss we ended up making on both Brereton's fee and wages over the course of his contract. Plugging a gap that simply shouldn't have been allowed to appear.

Rotherham's win means they are now safe, ending their multi-year streak of yo-yoing between the Championship and League 1. It means that if Huddersfield are able to get at least a draw from their home match on Thursday against Sheff Utd, Reading will be relegated. If not, then it'll go down to the final day, where Reading Vs Huddersfield will decide who is playing in League 1 next season.

Keeping in mind the context was the likes of Coventry, Millwall and Luton above us, and the teams at the lower end of the league, do you think we're facing a significant disadvantage based on that? Remembering that as far as the academy is concerned, we have a very good one that is highly funded relative to a lot of other clubs. If you do then fair enough, for the record, it's all about opinions... but I don't think there's good reason to say we're way above where we should be in this league. I think if we finish 8th - 10th that's an average position based on what we have available.

Souey was a great manager for us until the final season or so, and even then he left before he could damage his legacy. As far as being a pundit, much like Keane he speaks his mind and isn't afraid to call out stupid comments made by other pundits, which is refreshing. His Liverpool bias can be annoying, but that aside he was worth listening to.

As for the manager...

We're on a winless run of 8, one of if not the worst run of form in the division, and we've gone from 3rd a few months ago to 8th now with an outside chance of getting into 6th - the second season in a row in which we've let a golden opportunity slip. How can one not understand a generally pessimistic outlook with those facts in mind? As far as us being way above where we should be - why? Are there that many teams below us with significantly more budget, better players or a better overall setup than us? Past history would suggest not. We've been upper mid-table for the vast majority of the season two seasons in a row now, so it only makes sense to place us in that bracket in our current state. Are Coventry, Millwall and Luton in a much healthier place than us in terms of budget and players? They aren't using these issues as an excuse not to excel. It's Luton's second season in a row in the top six - 6th last year and likely 3rd this year. We don't need to accept mediocrity, and we shouldn't accept it either. We have a £7m and £5m strikeforce. We were close to signing a PL striker in Undav on loan and prepared to pay O'Briens PL wages in January, before our recruitment team ballsed up the paperwork, so we haven't exactly been shopping in the bargain basement over the years.

We'll also have gone behind and failed to come back from behind to win for a club record 64 games, narrowly beating out 2031's 61 game streak.

If you're on PC, hover over the poster's name and a box should appear which has numerous options, including to ignore. On mobile I believe you need to go to the user's profile screen to select the ignore option. Edit: On both PC and mobile you can also click on your user profile in the top right hand corner, go to 'ignored users' and add a poster that way. On mobile you need to select 'account' first, then you'll see the option.

I guess I'll go with the 8 rather than 9 then 🙂 but yeah, the form Ipswich have been in over the past few months has been nothing short of sensational. Some shrewd January signings and a wave of incredible momentum has got them back into the Championship. Both Plymouth and Ipswich have really had to hold their nerve considering how many points Sheffield Wednesday have in 3rd. Two of Ipswich's final four games were against Peterborough (5th at the time) and Barnsley (4th), both away, and they won both matches 3-0. A fully deserved promotion, and both teams will come up to the Championship with a lot of confidence.

Huddersfield play Sheff Utd next and need a draw to be safe. If they lose then it'll come down to Huddersfield Vs Reading on the final day of the season, and could be a relegation decider. Rotherham have much better GD than Reading, so if they can get a draw from one of their final two games against Boro and Wigan it should be enough to keep them up. Certainly still a chance it could go down to the final game.
