This is dire

In the world of Venkys and offloading big earners I’m not sure how one of our biggest (top 3 id imagine) earners could just be a squad player.

What characteristics of a captain do you see in Lewis Travis out of curiosity?

He feels like the last person I’d want in a counter attacking side. No pace, no direction, pretty average passer, obviously not a finisher, and not creative. Unless you mean, the other 5 midfielders/attackers do the counter attacking and you sit back and just foul someone if we lose the ball Lewis?

Can hear a few ‘we want ******* out’ chants which I think is Venkys. But could also be Waggot and could also be Stoke who were singing You’re Not Fit To Where The Shirt earlier

He’s switched warming the bench for a bottom half team to warming the bench for a playoff team. Behind Morsy and Luongo at Ipswich and behind Tronstad and JRC for us - it’s simply whether we believe one of highest earners should be sat on a bench waiting for the inevitable JRC injury next season (I don’t). But, considering we don’t reinvest a penny of our sales, we may as well keep him I guess (I’d sell in the summer if we were owned/run by competent people)

Yeah he has his limits, but he is faster and makes better decisions than Sigurdsson, who is very much a luxury. We’re more lively with Hedges and Dolan out wide.

Not a chance we’re worse than ALL of QPR, Stoke, Huddersfield, Birmingham AND Millwall now we have Gallagher, JRC, Hedges and Dolan all fit again (and dare I say Pears given the calamity the other fella was) Rotherham and Sheff Wed won’t catch us

Hahahaha if you can’t laugh you’d cry. What a club we are

That’s fair enough. But the quote I replied to was talking about the past and solely the past.

He literally said we were 8th at that point. Everything he said is fact. For 1.25 seasons we’ve been better than any other championship season under Venkys (and in the cup too). For 0.25 since we’ve been poor. You’re judging the 0.25 very heavily by the looks of it.

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice.... (I actually think this is the 3rd time mind you). Anybody still supporting Venkys / Waggott / Sylvester and that set-up are actively detrimental to our Football club.

In fairness he was pretty scathing the other day. If you’ve lost Chaddy then the Facebook lot can’t be too far behind.

Whatever you do, don’t look at our fixtures from mid-March onwards

Feels like a wasted opportunity - but not sure he’s fully committed to it himself now given how much he’s been messed around. I would worry for who we pick next for sure.

Ahhh simpler times

They are two sentences alright.

Give your head a wobble. I'm amazed he's still here. The 'project' he was promised is complete nonsense and our CEO (who is the one of the most incompetent men to walk this earth) has openly stated our ambition is to just stay up.

Should be expected by now, but I’m pretty much speechless. £22m starlet gone and replaced with 6 month loan or retiree deals. It’s just full of this shite……outside chance of playoffs, yeah 250/1 lads - fill your boots

Has the fee involved for McGuire been confirmed anywhere? If it's the $7m option to buy that the American guy suggested then it's almost a laughable deal. Even if he tears the league up in the 20 or so games he's available there is no chance we're paying £5m for him.

Bit in bold made me laugh - can only assume it’s a micky take

We sold a player for £22m and bought nothing but 6 month free transfers or 6 month loans. You two are on cloud cookoo land

John Fleck - out of nowhere

Yeah I’m intrigued to see the next set of finances. We have shipped off all high earners like you said, obviously others get pay rises but nothing like the Dack / Ayala level. Gallagher is the only one left. Add to the fact that Waggott got his bonus for increasing ticket revenue (even though it’s shite) and all the cup run money for 2 years straight, the year we were on TV for like 30 of the 46 games. All the above, we should be well down £10m a year loss before any player trading which is far more stomachable and within FFP too. Just seems bizarre that the dial barely moves for our yearly losses.

Nice - made me chuckle amongst all this mess!!
