Bringing the peas back would be good. Especially if they can still get those flourescent green ones that lit up like uranium.
This is so wrong it's unbelievable. It has to been proper steeped peas, or else the season ticket is going in the bin.

Bringing in someone like Kompany would be a start.
Yes, the optimism would go through the roof, but I can't see him in the Championship, unless he's being offered a heap of rebuilding cash, and I don't think that's very likely.

Re: Totally hypothetical...would you have Dyche back?

If Dyche is indeed back at the Turf next season, I bet the club he's managing will have given him a decent budget to work with. I reckon he'll want a club that can give him the resources to get promotion and also be able to stay in the EPL without having to preform minor miracles every week.
