We may have bet Brighton but they finished nearly what 10+ points ahead of us and Derby will be formidable as ever now with Pearson in charge. As for Ipswich, Cardiff, Brentford....Bristol they will be all around us as that is the pack we are in where it's all about stringing winning runs together. We also have a tricky start which can go either way....
Wouldn't mind Jannussi or whatever way his name is spelt from manure. would add pace....
Just about all the points we ended up behind Derby & Brighton were down to what we lost to them in the opening seven matches.
Brighton don't appear to have the finances to push on and Derby just spin the revolving door that is the manager's chair every few months and I don't see Pearson as a step up, more a step back in my view.
Cannot see Ipswich or Brentford moving forward. Cardiff might but Bristol have a lot of catching up to do although I see them as the most likely improvers for next season.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
