It’s just a reflection of current events. We have absolutely thrown away finishing in the top two, and since Aribo scored at Cardiff, we have let in 8 goals with none scored, and apart from some hari kari finishing at Cardiff, we have hardly looked like scoring since. |

If memory serves, this lot had a half-decent keeper…..

Yes, I think you are right about the “philosophy”. BUT There may be a silver lining with Wilcox gone, as there is the small chance they will change their ways. Have to say, they have gone to either extreme with Nathan Jones and Brighton Buddha. Time for a more pragmatic approach based on the solid principles. |

Aye. When you look at some of their training drills, there are loads of 3-yard passes between the players. Pointless. The (lack of) fitness also concerns me greatly. It’s an area where I think West Brom and Norwich will both be stronger than us. |

I have misjudged people in football many a time. But Steve Cooper does not strike me as a money-mad mercenary. If we don’t get him in, then somebody like Sunderland or Birmingham (if they stay up) will for next season. |

Ipswich have Kieffer Moore on loan from Boscombe and Omari Hutchinson on loan from Chelsea; they have made notable impacts. Leeds’ best defender Rodon is on loan from Spurs. TBF Our loan players have saved our season. Though Brooks is increasingly looking an expensive disaster, which I have to admit I couldn’t see being the case. |

It's a valid point. Even Mara seems to have got worse, which I'm not sure I thought was possible. |

Unless the Club do something bold with pricing (£15 or less). The play-offs were always my favourite week of the season to watch games on TV (as a neutral); often so much excitement in games with big atmospheres. However, the feeling I get is that a lot of fans just want the season to end now, and extending it by another couple of weeks is just prolonging the angst. A real shame. |

Aye. Wouldn’t want to be playing Hull in the play-offs…. |

How does it work with suspensions? Do they roll over into the play-offs? Thinking of the implications of any 3-match bans for a straight red card today or next Saturday…..(or a red card next Saturday for 2 yellows). |
