It was actually Whitey that trotted it out having misread 28 wins from that season comment he was responding to.... but then you knew that didn't you. I feel sorry for your furry mammals.

As opposed to everyone else who has owned up to a very predictable season.

Yeah.... them apples are just not oranges are they.

Did anyone call him poor? One dimensional was the accusation, which is probably not far from the truth. The change in Everton since Moyes joined doesn't reflect that well on Dyche.

Once Bitterne...

What's Rohl achieved?

Another loan for Lesley will more than likely be the case, not a chance he drops to the Championship though. I think he's developed quite well this season, looked lost for the first 3 months or so but seems to have found his game more in recent months.

Can't see us bringing more than 1 or 2 in. Our squad is already a proven Championship contender. Assuming Lesley returns to Chelsea I'd like to see a dominating CM in his place, other than that no position really needs filling at this point.

The immediate job is to gain promotion from the Championship, nothing else matters at this point. Cooper has the experience to be successfully return us to the top division, will he have the players to do so?

Talks a good game, interesting bloke to listen to. If we had stuck with him, knowing that we're going into the Championship, I would've felt confident that he had the right experience to take us back to the Prem.

We forgot, we forgot, we forgot that you were here, we forgot that you were here…

Unfortunately I think our Director, Spors, has a “particular style”.

Tonight came down to one poor bit of defensive quality, they showed plenty of guts and determination this evening.

Heavy metal pun... intended?? 😂

This window should just be about recruiting to gain promotion. The type of player needed who would be available to sell to a Championship team and who would manage the jump to the Premier league are pretty fucking rare these days. Recruit to promote and then bin them off.

Wolves at home tells you everything you need to know on whether IJ is a good prospect for us going forward, if there was any doubt beforehand. We've put up with some surprising shit this season but fuck me everything about the Wolves games left me asking why?? It was like the football manager's equivalent of a fucking suicide note - someone please put him out of his misery!

To be fair all the previous DoFs have fucked off at the first sniff of a bigger club being interested. Not replacing JW was a definite error, one they've hopefully corrected for the better.

Crap analogy

Yep, brain fart material. Think we only saw "the V" once though.

The excitement an hour and a quarter before kick off… I’ll always be grateful for that, never truly knowing what fucking hare brained selection / line up we were about to see.

Ok, if you say so

You're right, the ship has sailed and we need to look forward, not back. Consensus was, although they'll dispute it, that "it couldn't get any worse" and heavy metal football was welcomed, IJ's pragmatism was celebrated as was his embarrassing row in the car park with a sporting director - just what we needed, apparently.

All of that makes him the perfect fall guy too, and he’ll be handsomely rewarded for it. We complete the 38 games. Juric returns to the continent. We dust ourselves down and hope Johannes has a fucking good plan.

....It can't get any worse; was the consensus on here 🫠. Come on @trousers time to start dishing those medal out 😉😂

Firstly I’ve not seen any evidence on the lack of fitness, I would be genuinely interested in seeing numbers on this rather than the subjective view. You could argue that had Joe not managed to get into position (through a lack of fitness) to deflect the shot then the ball sails into Ramsdale’s hands and we bag the 3 points.
