Who do you want to come up/down to the third tier?

Cry me a river! Your making it out like your hard done by, rather than looking at the players have missed out on look at the squad warne has, Bradley, gayle, Collins, hourihane, Mendez, Wilson etc the list is endless of good quality players that all will be on a pretty penny.

You was moaning about warne earlier In The season, luckily the board didn’t think like you and have stuck by him.

KTF.

Amazing. “We’ve only spent 300k on one player” hahaha.

You’re the reason that away day is a farce. Any chance you’re going bust soon?

Nope, you have my apologies

I wasn't saying we were hard done by, either, ultimately just pointing out that we absolutely haven't 'spent our way to the title' - last season we were one of three clubs in the League that didn't spend any money on incoming transfers and we raised the 3rd most from outgoing transfers in the league. This season we paid a fee upfront for one player, Blackett Taylor.

Ironically, you've named six players and really hit on only one, maybe two, good player(s) in Mendez-Laing. Bradley has been largely poor for us. Hourihane, too, certainly this season and has since lost his place. Collins hasn't scored since January. Gayle played 3.5 games before getting injured. Wilson is decent, but inconsistent.

Hourihane, Gayle, Collins & Hourihane will also (likely) be released at the end of this season - amongst plenty others.

Warne has potentially achieved what he should've done. However, as I mentioned above, look at how the squad has been assembled. He banked on experienced Championship professionals on the downward trajectory of their career to have enough in the tank to perform at this level. I assume some of the approach could've been due to the EFL restrictions we were under but doesn't change the fact we have a significant rebuild ahead of us - promoted or not.

I only want birmingham to come down as would be a class away day for mansfield, nothing against the club which others seem to have.

Have you never played them?

We always had trouble with Birmingham, and their hooligan stewards in particular. Also, special mention for Trevor Francis blaming their poor results at Edgeley Park on the length of the grass

Yeah but not recently.

We did have a friendly called off on police advice due to potential trouble though, so could he a sign!
