Another academy player on Man City's radar, Romario Collins, 15 yo defender, terms agreed apparently.
Mansfield Town have announced a friendly against us, towards the end of July and behind closed doors.

We're being picked clean. Chansiri is to blame for all of it.
It will likely take a few seasons to recover from this which is more lost time and still nowhere nearer knocking on the promised land's door.
Its disheartening to see minnows like Wrexham surpass us and be more likely to.play premier league football in the next 5 years than we are.
We have remained stagnant under Chansiri for nearly a decade. No real investment of substance made on the club itself. Just millions pissed away on transfer/agent fees.

If we go down which we will it will take 3 transfer windows to have a team and as we haven't got a transfer window it will be at least 3 seasons .. remember you need pub league players for the pub league not prima Donna championship ones ..then it will take another 2 seasons to get a top level championship one and even then you can still go back down look at Luton ?

We might be Pei's age before we get a sniff of the EPL.
There won't be any football left by then
Youre not wrong though. The repercussions of this means we're cooked for a few seasons. The spiteful nob's final finger up at the fans, we can hope.

Henrik Pedersen has extended his contract with the club, he is currently the assistant manager, not sure who he is assistant too though.
He will be joining the squad that is currently at St George's.

In Pederson we trust..
He's a full season to experiment with kids and pub league players in preparation for the real deal. It'd be nice to think positively about a battle for survival in the Championship this season.
This isn't realistic under the circumstances. I haven't checked the odds but id imagine we're nailed on for relegation. When the points deduction drops (and it will drop) it'll prove to be too high of a mountain to climb with our limited capabilities.
Its best to start thinking a few steps ahead. I think we should spend this season preparing for promotion from L1

When we do get a points deduction my only hope is it's half way through the season as phycology plays a massive part like we saw last time when we where rock bottom.we could never quite make the gap up.. you've just got to hope it's about Christmas and we've got at least 50points on the board ...hopefully with the players we've got whoever takes charge will note we can't defend or tap it around in midfield and we have to basically stop trying to play football and go route on directly which Danny did to a certain degree in his first season the home games are going to be vital and quite frankly pissing around with the ball for the first 45munutes of every game isn't an option this season !
