I assume that all the new signings will be on a lot more than a 12 month contract and doubt they would have agreed relegation Clauses down to League 1 levels so I'm in the camp that losses would be far larger if we went down. I would have thought the "plan" is to spend the minimum possible whilst just about staying up.

Eustace has only been at Derby less than half a season yet his career there is already mirroring his here. Saved a Club that looked doomed to relegation then next season has them in and around the top 6. Meanwhile, our mon is taking us in the other direction. But we're better off apparently because he's "honest" in interviews as one diabolical decision after another occurs with his blessing, and doesn't say "y'know" a lot in his pressers.

Well, thank God they're all "aligned" or we might end up losing nearly all our home games or something. Oh errr..... hang on! What do you define as "it succeeding"? Cutting costs but going down? Cutting costs but scraping up in at best 19th? I'd define "it succeeding" as cutting costs yet still managing to maintain a similar League position to last season. Imo there isn't a snowballs chance in hell of that happening, they can be as aligned or onboard as they like.

It's not quite in the category of putting Sam Gallagher on at RB then hooking him again 20 mins later but it's not good. What must the young CB's at the Club think when they see stuff like this happening? Wonder if they're in line for a hefty pay increase if they make a senior appearance?

He's never quitting, he seems full square on behind the "transition".

Yeah I was waiting for that as well.

I mean even if you didnt know anything whatsoever about the history of BRFC anyone with half a brain cell proof reading that should twig that couldnt possibly be correct. As I said in response to Paul reporting no pies in the Riverside for the first time ever, no-one gives the shiniest shit down there.

Spend the least money possible and finish 21st would be the ideal season for Pasha. Dont suppose the owners are that bothered either way. They might care if we lose the £8m p.a. Championship TV money though.

Im going to buy you and Exiled one of those "Pears" mugs for Christmas.

It's cheaper.

Lol. That'll be the team that's won 5 on the bounce you're on about.

Unnecessarily abrasive. Why arent you having a go at people ridiculously blaming Pears for the defeat today? Hedges is shit. At least Im consistent in my view and dont change my mind back and forwards every 5 mins whenever someone has a couple of ok games. But if you like him at CB or anywhere else for that matter, knock yourself out - it's a game of opinions.

If it was at the other end and the ref gave it you'd be calling the ref every name under the sun and saying the contact was too minimal.

Was watching it on TV. They were side by side and Sandrerson marginally mistimed his challenge. I thought he'd got a tiny bit of the ball in normal time. It was a pen on reviewing the replay but you see a lot worse not given when there's no VAR.

They spoke about it on Sky and concluded, probably correctly, the contact wasn't sufficient to send Gueye to ground. He should have gone to ground and given the ref a decision to make though.

Yeah that's exactly what happened.

Literally no-one gives a shit down there do they?

Useless ref gave us a relatively soft penalty although it was one after viewing the replay.

Or we would presumably have the option to buy him early then flip him for a profit.

He just goes around tripping and kicking people. Not sure how he gets away with it so often.

"Good" is somewhat of an understatement Id say as he went on to prove with Everton. Well past his best as a player by the time he joined us but still decent. Imperious at his peak, again with Everton. Would he go down as the best player never to win an England cap?

Was there an executive decision taken not to protest so as not to detract from the anniversary today? If there was I wouldnt disagree with that but hope protests in general havent gone by the wayside?

Many home fans decided to stay on for it?

But the football was shite and results were worse than Eustace. How can you like one and not the other? Both or neither surely?

Apart from that it was okay though?
