    This is one of the greatest works of fiction imaginable, hats off, sir. If i may be so bold, where you lost it is the ascertain that Nuno would win manager of the season...manager of the century, more like if he sticks around and achieves all that malarkey!

    Yeah, its shit...but unless the EFL waive that cost, we're bang to rights.

    Celebrating mediocrity, as opposed to aiming for success. Hmm, not sure about that... We, as at the game fans, can help this process by supporting the lads through thin and thinner. Absolutely no reason we can't cheer ourselves horse at the game this Sunday and hope it drives them onto a...

    IIRC, the promotion season (21/22) our losses were around £40m.

    Exactly. There is this blasé attitude that sell a few players...it'll be reet. Will it bollocks. In a more competitive league, with our above average players replaced by aging ex-prem stars or "wonder kids" from Benfica's reserve side; it'll go south quicker than punters down the traps. Our...

    Weren't we in breach (EFL rules) when promoted, coupled to the spectacular losses incurred in the EPL? Isn't leicester facing similar, in whatever league they compete in next season?

    +1, you magnificent beast, you. As we speak, the chalice is being suckled and alert button crumbling into dust, at the repeated and furious pounding i'm subjecting it to.

    It was point 4 = a points penalty, not a 4 point penalty. I imagine the galactic sized debts accrued in our two premier league seasons (plus the debt leaving the championship 21/22) will mean we’re slightly over a 3-year roll? Anyways, no trolling, buddy. Just thinking the grass ain’t always...

    Very sensible and logical. Does the club offer any indications it operates with any of this foresight and coherence? My point is, those, almost, welcoming relegation as a blessed relief are deluding themselves it will be anything other than a disaster. Being mardy at a competition that pays...

    Where is this confidence that the side would be functioning, coherent or able to compete in the championship? First off, Nuno would be gone. Some think this would be a bonus: maybe. However, as we're all aware, manager churn spells the death-knell for any semblance of a plan. Two, huge debts...

    Does anyone think this club will be any less shambolic in the championship? I have my doubts. Logically, and obviously (y'know being a football fan and all that = wanting the highest level of competition for your team) its best to stop up in the prem. How will the circus function without the...

    Game week 34

    So, 27 points for Burnley? If we're beating Sheff U, we end on 29? Or did i misread your comment. If you actually meant a draw, then we end on 27 points, much like burnley. Presuambly, to make up the -14 goal difference, they're losing by the odd goal to Spurs and Man U, and we're getting...
