    Am I right in thinking if we win the EFL case and we are allowed to show the stadium sale in the accounts, we are trying to say it was technically sold in the 17/18 yearly accounts not the 18/19 accounts. Based on a rolling 3 year of 39 million losses we will only get the benefit of the sale this year.

     

    17/18 accounts 2 million profit

    18/19 accounts 20 million loss

    19/20 accounts published shortly but somewhere close to 20 million loss

     

    So even with the ground sale we have no room for manoeuvre.

    I think it boils down to having two big personalities in the dressing room. Hutch came through the ranks at Chelsea, nearly had to retire though injury he probably comes across as a “I don’t give a poo attitude” “rants and speaks their mind” potentially undermining the manager...he needs a strong personality to manage him and keep him in line. Westwood is and has always been a bit petulant...again needs managing.

     

    End of the day, your best team is your best team whether you are playing Under 10s footie or professional football, and all the players know who is the best...it’s natural selection.

     

    Something kicked off after the Stoke game and we’ve not recovered since.

     

    Down to the manager to “manage” the situation not bomb senior pros out of the squad imo.

    Dawson 5 - nothing he could do about the goal 

    Palmer 4 - not really in the game. Not a wing back

    Lees 4 - much improved performance from Barnsley. Our best defender 

    Iorfa 3 - looked out of place in the middle of the back 3. Surely him and lees should swap

    Borner 3 - Poor again

    FF 6 - Not a wing back but looked like our biggest threat first half and worked hard

    Bannan 4 - overun, outbattled, in midfield on his own against 3 again

    Lee 5 - neat and tidy and worked hard but can no longer play in a 2 

    Windas 4 - didn’t do enough 

    De Cruz 5 - worked hard, few good touches, no support

    Wickham 3 - awful again, lazy again

     

     

    On the wind up surely lol

    Has Forestieri become the latest player to tell the manager he doesn’t know what he’s doing? Is that it? Did he open his trap at half time?

    Bet he did tbh.

     

    Monk walking out after half time shaking his head, can’t face criticism even if it’s merited.

    That performance is 100% down to the management/coaching team.

     

    Ridiculous formation.

     

    A managers job is to man manage the players & egos in the squad. 

     

    Bring Westwood back, bring Hutchinson back. Play Iorfa and Borner together, drop Lees. Play FF in a front 3.

     

    Awful, I was all for giving him a chance but if Monk is too stubborn then we could end up getting relegated this season with a points deduction.

     

    Dreadful.

    Fox on a 2yr deal

    Fletcher 1yr (he will no doubt be looking for 2 as will his agent anything more than a year I would release he’s our top earner) 

     

    Rest of them get rid 

     

    Try and offload Rhodes on loan for the season covering his wages.
