For four points some clubs ( and owners) will think it’s worth breaking the rules. The deterrents are weak. A bit like the PL when it comes to looking after their own.

They’ll be nothing special about this season. The towel was thrown in long ago. I can’t listen to his interviews anymore. Dyche used to repeat a lot of things but at least there was some realism and honesty with it. There was also evidence of real hard work and team preparation between matches.

Did anyone really expect us to win when 2-0 up as I certainly didn’t having watched us this season. The only surprise is we didn’t lose but nearly could have. Better first half but the game lasts for 90 +. You’d hope for some improvement somewhere on the pitch over an entire season.
