Yep Bree is another solid pro. Reliability at Championship level for under a Million quid. The irony is that if we got promoted thanks to these players and we were ruthless with the ambition of staying up the likes of Manning, Bree and Wood should be amongst the squad players culled for better.

Bree always put in decent performances in the Prem as well, I'd have no problem with him staying whilst we consolidate our place up there. 

Whether he wants to sign another contract with us is another issue, he'd have his pick of teams in the championship and probably a few prem ones if he was available on a free.

Feel free to watch back the full BBC broadcast and see the long periods of absolute silence for yourself. As I said in another post maybe the mic positions didn't pick it up properly but the fact that it did come across loud and clear after the 2nd says that it wasn't quite as loud before that as people are thinking. 

I was watching in a campsite small restaurant/bar in northern Portugal and I could feel the atmosphere from there. Obviously there were times when the crowd (and all those watching around the World) became tense but surely that’s an integral part of the atmosphere?

NB: I apologised to the few others in the otherwise very quiet rustic bar - I may have caused a bit of a stir when the first goal went in. 😬😊
