Thanks to all particularly the contributions from 'brexit' and 'Stayingup.' Need I say more?

I do and I am in my 67th season. The running of the club is not down to me and I don't worry about it because there is no point in worrying about things that you can't influence. Nobody is forced to support the club, it is a matter of choice and, if you don't like what is happenening then don't support any more--you don't have to be a martyr.
We got into Europe, we didn't progress as far as we would have liked so that is it. Who knows what will happen during the rest of the season, we will just have to wait and see for the next 35 weeks ----and enjoy the ride ----it's only a game!

I would like to see us give the cups a good go this year. We’ve had a bye into the last 32 of the League Cup and drawn the lowest ranked team left in it. Given that virtually everyone else will play weakened teams that’s a real opportunity.

It would be nice if, like Swansea, we had something to show for this period in the limelight.

Even our 2nd string should have enough to overcome Burton,then we'll see what the draw throws up.
