Semi justice it should have been 20 points
We now need to kick on in our games 6 points in next. 2 games a minimum requirement

What’s the maximum requirement?

Who will want to sign for a team that according to stats are the worst ever Premier League team?

Which stats are these? Because, it seems a bit absurd, to me anyway, that THE WORST EVER premier league team, aren't even bottom of this year's table....

Apparently the season ended at 6:04pm this afternoon and there aren’t another 27 league games in which our players could put some good performances in and enhance their reputations.

Wish him all the best whatever the reason is.

But going into this season with just Jay and Foster as ‘credible’ centre forward options was suicidal. What were we playing at?

Was the Swiss internstionL, highly rated, europa conference top scorer not a credible Option?

Technically capable? Maybe, although no vote of him taking the ball on the half turn in tight areas. Pace capable? Uncertain Fitness capable? Cramps up in most games when playing centre half….

No we don’t. A center back and a striker, possibly another central midfielder to rotate with Brownhill and Cullen.

Teams can improve by a strengthening of the spine. Keeper swap, Beyer back in…. But there’s no midfield option unfortunately. That’s the big miss.

They seem determined to get 5 very attack minded players on the pitch in a 4-1-2-3 formation. Each time that's been played, we've been wide open and lacked shape. Either you need a more defensively capable wide player (Like JBG) or you have to remove Berge or Amdouni, and have to have some legs in t...

It’s a terrible VAR decision to rule out their goal. Not so bad when it’s in your favour, in the very rare occasion that happens, but they really shouldn’t be getting decisions like that wrong. Is it mistaken identity? Or have they judged Collins blocked Al Dakhil from attaching the ball? Either wa...

Can confirm I didn't receive the email either And Vincent Kompany didn't say he wanted to make the Turf a fortress (which I've always assumed is a place where you win more often than not) - he actually said that he wanted us to make it HELL.

Good player Cookey…. Struggled a bit when Stan turned his role into one of pure hold up…. To bring Little, Weller et al into the game more…. He went from a marauding forward going number 9 to a pure back to goal even when there was space to run into. You’d not find a player who tried harder than him.

I think the people trying to make these decisions and writing nonsense like the email might need to consider that the football team is there for the fans' benefit and not vice versa.

Surely at its best when there’s a partnership between the 2?
