I’m afraid that the one way for our season to fall apart is for MR to allow/facilitate the players getting involved in the politics of our situation. Unlikely, but we still have the possibility of making the play offs, and MR needs to focus the players on performances alone.
perhaps some of the previous managers will do it, most of them will have had the payoff by now, or will the threat of being sued keep them quiet
Why will we be odds-on for promotion next year?<snip> If we don't scrape into the playoff lottery this year we will be odds on for promtion next year.
Said it before but the moment the council sold to Wasps they made it far harder to get rid of SISU. Unless you are a Cov fan or have some connection to the city why on earth would you buy us over every other club in the country.Wasps/Council/whoever should be doing all they can to help us reach the championship so we start to look saleable.

Entirely agree. I think they believed that SISU only wanted the Ricoh and would bail out when it was sold. Mis-take!
Or, or. They’re a local authority and care more about getting a troublesome asset off their books than the owners of the local football club.
Occam’s Razor and all that.

We'll be minus all of our best players from this season and will have to rebuild again just like we always do.
You mean the same Meyler who has done absolutely nothing since he has been at the club. You are looking in the tea leaves and coming up with assumptions based on nothing. Stockdale? where have you got that one from? yes wishful thinking.Why won't we be? Why would we lose all ourbest players?
We have an excellent academy system producing the goods like peas in a pod. We may lose Bayliss if anyone but we have another one of those!
Plus we have talent side lined long term all due back next season. We have strengthened with Meyler, got rid of liabilities like Doyle and if anything will strengthen with one or two more such as a goalkeeper like Stockdale. Add to that MR's continuing development of the way we play will make us a favourite for next season. If you can't see that then you are questioning the whole process of what MR's has been doing that is bringing better times on the pitch.

You're right James...I don't see negatives.
We have a good young talented squad and a few loans. There is no suggestion we will see many departures. They have yet to prove themselves and even Bayliss may think twice about any step up yet simply to warm a bench.
What most do on here is see us through Sky Blue eyes. You think we are poor when we lose and so on. The realty is if you were an opposition fan you would se us as a fairly good side and quite possibly promotion candidates next season. Did Luton look that good?
I think MR's is correct in his assumption we are just a few tweaks away from a very good side with or without a Bayliss or Thomas.
Think positive, stop looking behind you and look in front. 7 points from the playoffs is it and the final pressure end of the season to come? Much can happen. You only have to look at Posh, Prtsmouth and now Doncaster to see how things can quickly evaporate. I don't expect a playoff place but think it's still a possibility if we get a nice run together again. But next season we will be stronger and better placed for a push.
As for Doyle he had become a liability, that's just fact. That's not disparaging anything he achieved before it. he's a Sky Blue legend.
And Robins as 'shit on the bottom of the shoe'. really? That's your Sky Blue blinkers talking. There are ups and downs but I never thought for a moment he would not be doing a good job and keep improving the squad, laying the foundations. You can't just judge on a few results not going your way. The table never lies, we are doing very well for a promoted club.
It was a generic reply James. Only the first line pertained to you.Very confused about your post. You've claimed I've said about 10 different things that I haven't?
It was a generic reply James. Only the first line pertained to you.
No suggestion we'll see many departures? Putting Bayliss to one side I've just listed 10 players, 9 of those who are consistently in the match day 18, who either definitely won't be / are likely not to be in a CCFC shirt next season.
You're making my point earlier for me James:
Every team will be in a similar position with 9 or 10 players coming or going. The core of the squad and the development is most important, something Robin's has got on the right path for success imho

What core squad players do we have that are of a promotion chasing level?
Burge, Biamou, Bakayoko, to name but three,.What core squad players do we have that are of a promotion chasing level?
Any whose surnames don't start with B?Burge, Biamou, Bakayoko, to name but three,.
I would hope that the likes of Morgan, Drysdale, Wakefield, Bremang, Walters, Allesani etc will be ready to step in to the first team next season, filling the gaps.
