    Facts not drivel. Would love to hear your evidence based observations.

    Kudos for making a mistake and owning up.

    New Assistant Manager

    I think you are probably right but until details see the light of day we will not know. I really hope it is not some trivial excuse because Adi was not a yes man. See his response to Mourinho about his coaching methods. You need balls to stand up to the special one when he was at his peak at...

    New Assistant Manager

    He came in when we were rock bottom sure and playing shit football. We finished higher every year apart from last year when our cup run and injuries caught up with us. We were a whisker away from a cup final. That says with Adi we have never stood still, and there is no evidence to suggest we...

    New Assistant Manager

    The new Assistant Manager (AM) has a hard act to follow with Adi, as he has been our most successful AM ever. He was consistently successful previously at Chelsea. That is evidence based not speculation. I have seen endless theories on here about players not liking him, bullying and falling out...

    Summer transfer window 2024

    We need to be in a situation where players are pretty near max fitness when they start. Players often say they are not 100% when they play such is the intensity of modern football. I hope gone are the days when managers say we will give a player an injection before a match and hope he is OK. Or...

    Summer transfer window 2024

    Which is why I would go for BNC if he is affordable and interested in coming.

    Callum O'Hare

    MR always said he wanted Callum to stay. Was it the last game he said he still hoped to persuade him. He rested O'Hare because he had a terrible injury and letting him play every game would be detrimental to his health. Also his form dropped and he may have been average in training. Most players...

    Jim Smith comes to mind. That worked out well.

    New Assistant Manager

    Ultimately, the new system works if the right people are in the right jobs, with clearly defined responsibilities who do a good job and improve themselves and the overall results for the club. The bottom line is, it is the results on the pitch that matters.

    Unfortunately, can't do that in the Championship.

    when was the darkest era for the club?

    The end of the Richardson era, the Robinson, Mcginnity years and SISU's tenure. I sat with a season ticket through it all except when we played outside Cov.

    JSB now exclusive to Season Tickets

    Classic short termism (see most politicians). Don't think King expects to be here in 5 years time.

    Who should still move on?

    Allen is fine. Just what we need an experienced midfielder with a good engine who is a solid reliable squad player. If his injury problems are behind him, he will make a major contribution this season. He was written off two seasons ago and came back as one of our best players. Last season was a...

    Transfer Rumour Mitchy Ntelo

    Yeah, thought the same.

    What do we still need?

    I would welcome a loan to buy possibly a guaranteed buy if we get promoted. Think we have been targeting an experienced (but not too old) centre back or holding midfielder, right back cover and an up-and-coming striker. Think we need Vik to be sold and as a bonus Gus to cover all bases. To quote...

    Which teams do we think will be top 6 this season?

    The bookies get more right than they get wrong which is how they make money. However, think our odds are really good meaning I think we will do better than they predict. I have said before, think this is as difficult to get promoted as during any season. The "no hopers" from lat year QPR...

    So what's the expectations for this season

    Think the Championship will be as difficult to be promoted from as in previous years. Lot of the mid table teams from last year have improved and the three relegated teams have the money. We need some luck, not too many serious injuries and no last minute loss of any of our top players. The...

    So what's the expectations for this season

    You joke, but there are people on here who act as if that should happen.
