Technically they were relegated with a 3-3 at Highbury a week later but we all but relegated them.

I really need to find a new hiding place for the spare key.

There's that and there's this though isn't there. This season is like me shitting on my wife's pillow every weekend and telling her to manage her expectations on marriage when she asks me to stop.

Proper gaslighting isn't it. The talk in the summer was all positive and relishing being one of the favourites. Now we can't buy a win the fans need to manage expectations. Just fuck off and win a game.

Am I the smart one here?

Sheffield Wednesday were relegated the season before us but there are still a handful that have never been in the Premier League. Preston, Millwall, Bristol City, Plymouth and Oxford I think.

I think what is clear and worth remembering is that Bassette himself despite costing a reasonable sum of money is only 19 and is clearly leagues ahead of most 19 year olds. Looks like a year 11 playing against a nursery team.

Don't care about the 'curse' it's another very poor team and if we lose again I think Robins is in real trouble.

The chances are someone playing regularly in League 1 is already having a better career than 95%+ players playing in Prem academies will ever have.

Pointless stupid argument. It's not like we don't look abroad, we've signed loads of fucking players from abroad. Good players come from everywhere, we'll weigh up what we think is the best option and we'll go for it, be it a foreign player, a player from lower leagues or a prem reserve...

I do actually remember that now you've mentioned it.

The last league win i think would be the 4-1 where Bjarni Gudjonsson scored twice and missed a pen. He looked like an absolute world beater that day (or night, think it was a night game.)

How often do all 3 promoted League 1 teams go straight back down? 2 of them sit above us right now and last season Ipswich went all the way through the league with most of the team they were promoted with. It's a nonsense statement.

As i've said before too, there's a certain hypocrisy to expecting to receive huge money for your second tier players and not expecting any filter down to the third tier.

Dabo was far from the best of the lot. Relative to where we were at the time he was very good, but as a Championship player he was probably the worst of the lot.

Tbf I'm not even sure listing League 1 players who have made it in the Prem is relevant unless I was in a serious accident and missed seeing us promoted. League 1 players who have stepped up to be good at Championship level is more relevant and the reality is there will be too many to even...

Robins often happens upon changes that work for the better when he's essentially backed into a corner. Fingers crossed.

There's loads missing tbh. Not sure why you'd single out individuals when there's only, i think i counted, 9 there.

A thankless task at times and you know i'm more in the camp of thinking this start is more down to Robins than the players, but its hard to stick up for Simms atm. When you earn that much money i do feel there is a certain expectation to at least look like you give a shit. When things aren't...
