There's always one.
There's always one.It’s a total bullshit site. Why anyone believes it I’ve no idea
There's always one.
So doesn’t the new manager get any gelling in time?
Seeing as the team, that is virtually the same as last year has been allowed the leeway to have?
So that’s a 10 game free hit surely, whilst he gels with the team & set up?
There's already people making excuses for next season, let alone this one! Heard people saying how hard the championship will be next season with Prem clubs being relegated and that is unrealistic to assume a new manager will be pushing for promotion next year, its crazy.
In what other profession would employee salaries be available freely online?You may.
It's been reported in a number of places.
Such as capology. (To name just one)

Although I believe they can't always be trusted, for example, I've been aware that Binks was on £30k a week before we signed him and we agreed to continue to pay him that as there was no big fee involved.
I've also been made aware that Dovin's wages demands were exceptionally high, and the transfer fee was negotiated down to allow us to come to an agreement over his wages.
Which explains the delay in completing his transfer. (His wages are allegedly far higher than detailed by Capology)
What's your point?In what other profession would employee salaries be available freely online?
Some of the mental gymnastics and double standards on here are great.
They’re made up. Bologna are a medium sized club in Italy who’ve punched above their weight recently, they weren’t paying a reserve player 30k.What's your point?
If Dowie can do it, anyone can.Think we have to look at next season really , ofcourse magic might happen this year and if it does great but realistically we just need to set some really solid foundations to carry us into next season
Remind me sorry ?If Dowie can do it, anyone can.
Remind me sorry ?
What's your point?
What, 10 points away with 29 games to go? Utter nonsenseThere is almost zero chance of play offs now
Its not just the gap, it's the total points. We'd need 57 from 29 games to get to the magic 74 point mark, your talking 18 wins, 3 draws and 6 wins or the form of the equivalent of finishing on 90 points over a season.What, 10 points away with 29 games to go? Utter nonsense
I don't think it will happen but it's definitely nothing to write off

Forest did it in 2021/22, they had 22 points after 17 games and finished on 80 points (by comparison to us today they would've finished on 75 points and would have finished either 4th or 5th with 75 points with their GD )Its not just the gap, it's the total points.

In that case basically every team in the league should be aiming for the top 6. Fact is it’s nearly December and despite sitting just above the bottom 3 people don’t see the danger.Forest did it in 2021/22, they had 22 points after 17 games and finished on 80 points (by comparison to us today they would've finished on 75 points and would have finished either 4th or 5th with 75 points with their GD )
Yes agree it is unlikely but we shouldn't write it off and nor should the players

We had 2-3 games in hand the season we got into the play offs and we're in a false position, after 17 games that season we had 23 points, and 2-3 games in hand. We had a 6 point head start of where we are now.Any public sector one TBF.
Sorry once you start doing this you’ve lost your point. People did it all season we made the playoffs to claim it was impossible.
Models are models they aren’t the real world.

We also had the two best players in the division in Hamer and Gyokeres, and weren't shipping in 2 goals a game.
Let's see where we are end of Feb /March time. i just don't see the point of setting the expectation of playing offs for a new manager given this starting point, and still 6-7 games until we get to the transfer window.
salaries & pensions etc. accounted for £18.5million.
I don't know what the players are on I never said anything, other people did.You reckon we spend c. 10% of that amount on Luis Binks' wages? That sounds like Tin Hat levels of critical thinking to me.
Indeed. And what we’re playing with now is a team just above the relegation zone with still most fans expecting to finish in the top 10.Im talking about t he end of the season. People like you, possibly even you yourself, we’re er re coming on here with Six games to go making average points posts about how it was impossible.
It’s a shit model. Every season is different. Play what’s in front of you.

Based on what?
We were only 3 points off play offs switch 6 to go. We were the team in form, I thought we would finish top 6 at that point.Im talking about t he end of the season.

We have looked terrible far more often than those two games and more than one manager has said our players are picking and choosing their performance.Based on the fact we’ve been totally outplayed twice this season and once was with an interim fitness coach as manager.
Chicken Littles on here forget how tight the Championship is. A run of four wins and you’re top eight. A run of four losses and you’re bottom six.
People who bash on about average PPG forget what an average is. Most teams don’t perform at one level all season and a lot of playoff teams mix autos and relegation form. Looking at an average at the end of the season hides all that and skews your perceptions mid season.
You look at the first fifteen games and say “how could we ever average so high??” But if we did you’d just throw it in as the ppg that season and make the same claim next year.

It’s not a shit model, we know from league tables that 6th place is always around 73-75 points every season. Occasion it's slightly lower but not often.
