You’re pleased we are being relegated with a whimper. Hmm
Not at all pleased with how the seasons gone. It’s been a steep learning curve (too steep) for the squad and manager. Both will be far more ready for a 2nd attempt.

Like Dyche was after his first failed attempt and he didn’t do too bad.

Re: The team that I would like to see from here on out...

Difficult to judge them three so far given such limited game time. (Loans I can see but can’t see how that benefits the club). They’ll be 3 or 4 that may go off for a 12 month hiatus next season. Benefits are obvious. We retain the players services for future, they develop and play games probably c...

Mcnally, Costellor and Obafemi - won't be back if can be sold for a profit

Zaroury, Mellon and Dodgson - likely to return
