Not really interested in those Ray.
I am rather concerned and was just sensing the general mood in our fan base.
I really should be going to the Blackburn game.Only an hour and a bit for me. | |

Being light hearted, and looking for a positive spin.
Just hope the new manager is in place before the weekend | |

We have lost a manager who didn't want to be here and another who didn't want to come. Currently looking at two possible managers both of which I would be happy to see here. Signed a couple of useful players and lost some loans and out of contract players. Undoubtedly we are weaker now than at the end of the season, but the window is still open for a month so anything could change. Roberts out for a bit is a big miss, but Cabango should be back soon. Pre season match wise has been disappointing partly due to covid, but there is a game tonight and Saturday.
So all in all I'm not really disappointed, I would rather we get the right manager in the end. |  | | |

The number of people who have said to me they are not to hopeful for the new season it is disheartening of course it is.
We have lost the spine of our squad replacing Guehi is a big worry as is Ayew and likely Grimes.
No Roberts till October either.
If the club were aware Cooper wanted out in June the way they have gone about replacing is pi$$ poor really.
On the plus side we have 14000 season ticket holders and at 299 quid each the cheapest in the league.
So while I am disappointed with the close season to put it mildly I am still looking forward to it.
A glutton for punishment perhaps. | |

Lets be honest every season for the last 10 years people have told me they are not hopeful for the coming season.
On a footnote its not £299 a season many pay less as in children and oldies. | | | |

At the moment it’s one of the worst, not as bad as the firesale three years ago, but we all knew that was coming.
As it stands, we’ve got no manager and a weakened squad, it’s hard to dress that up.
If we get the right man in now however, things could turn around quickly. Both Martin and Morris appear to be decent options. I’m actually cautiously optimistic, just praying we don’t cock this appointment up. | | | |

Agree really but we must secure Martin or tings will be really awry for the start of the season.
I am,comme d'habitude, pretty pessimistic .
We have screwed up our best chances of returning to the Prem and I fear we will become simply a pretty mundane lower league club,after having really eaten well at the top table. | |

I’m trying not to get too excited about Martin. Keith has said it’s just a tentative approach at the moment and Winter isn’t rushing in.
We were at a comparable point with Bielsa a few years ago.
I wouldn’t be surprised if we do bring him or Morris in soon, equally I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tate in charge at Blackburn. | | | |

I can remember when football clubs advertised for a manager in the newspaper. Some of the applicants were real nutters. | | | |

I agree with Itchy. Pre season isn't over yet and anyway, how can we judge it before knowing what it leads us to?
What if pre season seems a bit miserable but our youngsters put together a good season? What if we land a manager who turns out to be really good? | |

It’s been a fantastic pre season. We’ll have saved a month on a managers wage, the incoming manager won’t have enough time to spend money in the transfer market. Get a few quid for our club captain and it’s been an absolute belter. Yours, J. Levein. | | | |

2nd highest spenders in the championship, lost players who we realistically knew wouldn’t be here this season, rid of a manager most fans wanted gone (I wasn’t one of them), turned down by a manager who obviously hasn’t got the balls to be a number 1 & stayed at a club who finished well below us a number 2.
Hopefully appoint an up & coming manager albeit 2 weeks too late.
We have had far worse. [Post edited 28 Jul 2021 21:16]

Its started slowly, IMO we should have got rid of Cooper earlier, Realistically we need someone in place in the next few days
Could be a tough start and a long season of effort ahead |  | | |

We haven't had a pre-season since about 2014 when woe and relegation wasn't the general opinion.
Take a look around the leagues and a lot of clubs are in the same boat in terms of fitness and squad selection. There's not much business going on anywhere. |  |
