I’ve defended Bob in the past, and he’s apparently a really good bloke and a proper fan. However he’s gone mental on here in recent months. Even down to denying starting his own threads the other day. Probably needs to log off and forget this place for a while. Personally feel he’s being used by Charlie. One day he’ll realise he was “done”

Nail on head. He’ll end up with nee marras when they finally leave the club.

Hopefully mate. I look at Boros team and I think Woodgate held them back. They have some good players.

I really think that this squad would go down comfortably bottom though.

Were Coventry, Luton or Barnsley much better than us? If at all? They have all stayed up / not in relegation zone at moment.

I would say our last two managers held us back. The squad isn't as bad as many like to make out. We should be top two easily on my opinion.

I'm not sure. My gut feel is that both JS and CM have fallen out with SD to an extent, and are happy to freeze him out and work with KLD. Not what people will want to hear about CM, I know, but, from speaking to him last year about football in general, the changes on the football side recently are something he'd be very comfortable with,

KLD will want 51% if I'm not mistaken?

Charlie can do one. He can keep his 6% if he desperately wants to hold on, but I never want to hear him speak for or about the club and fans again.

They were better because they won more games although it was marginal they were . Luton and Barnsley only just survived and Coventry will be in a battle . It’s a big step up

Luton and Barnsley were aye, could be down to Ross though. Coventry were comfortably better than us too but maybe a lot of that was down to Parkinson.

Methven will be comfortable with any grift that presents itself.
 
Something surely was going on with Parkinson why didn't he give the young lads a chance, could be that he was more a believer in experience rather than young starlet.

Dunno about Coventry but Barnsley (Moore, Pinnock, Lindsay) and Luton (Justin, Stacey) were initially weaker in the Championship as well. Still just about stayed up and are now looking decent 18 months on.

Jack Ross did well, in a basketcase situation, no surprise he is doing well again. Well have a good career.
