Yes it's the one with a bunch of league one players ahead of him. Football is a team game.

He would be league one. I bet they wouldn't turn down 3.

Absolutely. That's another issue of course. We could probably bring in the Rotherham keeper on much cheaper wages this summer and immediately improve things.

I'd say that our style of play means that we will concede and one of our main issues is that we aren't clinical given the amount of chances we appear to squander and we don't have a killer instinct to kill off teams when we are on top. We either change our style of play to concede less or we become more clinical and outscore teams so that conceding a couple doesn't matter.

We obviously believed that spending the money required wouldn't make sense given the outlay on Stewart. We still could have got a signing in. Someone like Kieffer Moore would have done but Martin would no doubt have turned his nose up.

Agreed. I would say it was one of the areas of the pitch where we least needed an upgrade. Rothwell in particular is a bizarre loan signing that we simply didn't require. What we badly needed in January was an alternative to Adams.

Yep that's obviously the best team. Obviously just switch a few out when required due to fitness but otherwise that's the team.

Interesting clip that's worth a watch: https://x.com/HilzFuld/status/1777301113412239442?t=AH0mvLSR0CX7o538RZnZRQ&s=09

Well I was talking about the mythical people on here that soggy seems to think don't want peace but yes you are correct that the Arab and Muslim states do not want any peace with Israel. Any Jews on that land is intolerable to them.

Who are all these people that don't want peace in the middle east that's what I want to know.

My issue is with our January transfer dealings which has judt confused things, frozen out some players and hasn't made us stronger. I don't have a particular issue with an individual player, it was just clear that what we needed was an attacker. In truth it was our decision to sign a crocked attacker as one of our main signings in the summer that has cost us the most this year.

I swear if Martin doesn't play bednarek and THB at CB and KWP at rb in the playoffs and we lose as a consequence, I will go insane. If he has to shoehorn Steohens then maybe stick him on the left where he can be less disruptive to the team. He hasn't even played particularly badly, he's just completely disrupted a settled team. Add to that the disruption of Rothwell and Brooks to the a lesser extent and we've really just made the team weaker. We've expanded out options which has just made people's jobs less clear. What was wrong with Amo Ameyew off the bench? Why is Edozie now getting hardly any chances? All of then deserve chances over some other players.

We have about four players who have claims to be the best in their positions in the division and yet we are producing this shite. We are 100% uderperforming and we need to use the remaining games to think about what we are going to do in the playoffs. I'm not confident but Martin has to pull something out of his arse or we will be so easy to beat

Unforgivably awful. I'm close to wanting Martin to not take charge next year because I know we will have the exact same issues with no hope of things getting better.

This is so so so depressing worse than Ipswich in some ways. We just have to win this game but no intensity whatsoever. I bet Martin will be proud of the performance.

Surprise surpruse no subs at half time despite it being clear that's what we need.

No Adams and Armstrong up on his own and we play the same shit we have done before. Another ineffective and frustrating result?

Yes this exactly. He's not terribly bad every week making rickets so it's difficult to point to certain things and say with certainty that he's crap but he's mostly just average or below every single week.

He's really excellent at distribution which is clearly the main attribute we are looking for. Never mind that he never makes any save beyond those he should save (and misses many of them too.)

The positive from Martin's point of view is that all the good defensive players will leave next year so he can play Stephens as often as he wants.

This unworkable and batshit insane law is obviously going to be repealed, it's just a question of when. Jk Rowling is 100% correct with what she says and should be applauded for speaking out when it would be so easy for her to stay quiet on the matter.

Martin on Kyle Walker-Peters’ omission from the starting XI: "James Bree deserved to play. Nobody is guaranteed a start in the team. The guys on the pitch did fantastic."

Does anyone really care about a decking chief executive? He's done a solid job getting good money for lots of our players but he's also been at least partially responsible for sanctioning the signing of Ross Stewart which was a ridiculous move and Shea Charles who was the top championship signing who can't get in the team. I don't think we will go up this year so I'm sure we can get someone who can do a decentish job and help us to go again next year.

Martin's managerial style is to back the players to the hilt but there's a time for that and a time for realism and a touch of ruthlessness in the pursuit of success. I would hope at the very least that Martin would be looking to make a change next year whatever league we happen to be in because it's plain to everyone that Bazunu at this age and with this experience is not currently cut out for a top championship club.

At the moment it would likely be West brom or Norwich in the semis and one of Ipswich, Leeds or Leicester in the final
