They'll be able to pay then £52m we want then, but we know it'll be closer to £40m with add ons included. Used right, that can more than enough to mould a team for promotion next season.

Didn't say it did, did I? Didn't become a moderator and lock the thread did I? Strange comments today.

Are you alright petal?

The harsh reality of relegation. We're worried about what kit we've going to play in next season while many people are being made redundant. Having been made redundant in the past myself, I hope all the employees that lose their jobs can find new employment promptly.

I like the sound of that if true. Need to keep the owners as far away from player recruitment as possible.

We're going to have a fair chunk of money to spend this transfer window. I just hope that Rasmus and Co let Russell Martin have input. We need some experience and know how to get out of the Championship, not more risks. I'm genuinely looking forward to a season for the first time in a long time.

I'd actually keep hold of Djenepo as a squad player. He has that unpredictability that may win 1 or 2 games during a season in the Championship. I agree that he's not the best and that I wouldn't want him starting often, but I think under the right management he can be useful. As with many of our squad, I guess it all depends on what offers we receive and if we'd rather stick or twist.

Basically, we tried a few things and none of them worked. Well done Sport Republic.

Everyone realises were rock bottom of the league, heading down to the Championship right? We don't have a hope in hell of getting Potter. We're still paying off two managers!

A team full of mediocre players. That's why were going down. If Walcott & Elyounoussi are starting games, that tells you all you need to know. Absolutely zero quality anywhere on the pitch. We need to go down to reset. If we somehow stay up this season, we'll go down next season anyway. I've had far more fun watching AFC Totton the past few weeks than this dross.

Tall Paul on. Get crosses in the box and try and win the knock downs. Old school but we need a goal however scrappy.

Not going to get a much better chance to win at Old Trafford than now. I'd go all out for the 3 points tbh. We expected no points at the start of the game, so why not have a go?

We weren't gonna win the FA Cup anyway.. Trying to put a positive spin on it. Selles out now I guess? Or maybe, just maybe it's the players who are shite, not the managers.

Said we needed to let him have the Leeds game and then make a decision. We made the decision far too early.

Fantastic result today but I'd hold off on giving him the job permanently for now. Give him the Leeds game and if we get the same level of performance then I'll start coming around to the idea. He's obviously had an impact this week but don't forget that Chelsea are in turmoil and had won 1 in 9 before today. The players seem to be on his side, but I remember beating Everton away under Jones and saying the same thing. What he has given us is hope. Hope that there's still a team in there that can compete and pick up points, which is something we've been lacking for most of this season.

You know what, I've gone past caring now. This is how sad this situation has become. I had a season ticket until two seasons ago and now I barely go. Takes some doing for a club to suck all the passion, belief and excitement out of matchdays in a short space of time but they've achieved it.

I'm sorry to say, we're down with or without Jones. No one turns this team around.

We've got a few million for a 17 year old that didn't want to be here, who will likely end up being EFL standard at best. I don't see much of an issue here. If players don't want to be here, get the most amount of money for them and let them go, whether it's first team or u18.

Rightly or wrongly, if we go a goal down it will be toxic. Getting behind the team is easier when you're not losing and if atmospheres in the past are to go by, ship a goal and the atmosphere will turn as the fans know there's little chance we'll win from behind at home.

Someone needs to video or at very least get a voice recording at the forum tomorrow. As people have said, the club edit the final version to put a positive spin on it. I'm very surprised it's not been cancelled. Unless you'll arrive and there's an announcement saying Rasmus couldn't make it due to illness or something and leave Semmens to take all the flack while grinning away.

I'm protesting by not going. I mean I wasn't going anyway but that's my reason now.

The thing that worries me is that when he does eventually get the boot, will Sport Republic hire the right man for the job? They've already got one appointment horrendously wrong, so who has faith in them not to do the same again?

Nearly 900 people were listening to the Twitter spaces chat. It went on for 4 hours, only just finished. When instances like this happen it's damning. He hasn't/shouldn't have any time left now.

He has to go before the Wolves game. His position was untenable even before the story of a training ground bust up this morning. He's completely lost the plot to the point of being delusional. Banished players that should be starting to the B team. Isn't the old saying that once you've lost the dressing room it's curtains? Did he ever have it? Let's not forgot this is all Sport Republics fault for putting this idiot in charge in the first place.

Can still get 3/1 on Betfair and Paddy Power for him to go next, so it doesn't look imminent.
