Re: Season tickets next season

If season ticket price increases in the prem were approx 25% for all teams then our price increase would be one of the smallest so maybe we should just compare our price rises with other clubs this season and next season. I don't think we would narrow the gap against other clubs in £'s.

Re: This is my worst season ever

True and I feel like we should wait 5 years before we make hard and fast judgements on this group of players. Some of them may surprise us. 12 months ago lots of fans were judging and now have changed their m8nds on several players especially our central defenders.

Re: This is my worst season ever

We haven't only got a very young squad that will not get much younger next season as a couple of older heads get replaced but we have a very young manager who is also being hung out to dry. Let's just support them all. As a fan I like to think that we are all in this together, probably why I don't f...

Re: Arijanet Muric

With Muric back in the team, the players in front of him might come into a run of form that makes them look better players. Additionally if our 'back 4' come under less pressure, the players further forward, midfielders, might become more forward thinking and support our front players better. That i...
