I just pray that we don’t hobble into the Premier League with this squad or even a slight tweak as we will be on the end of weekly drubbings similar to Man United!!!!

We need to lose the play-off final and carry on, no strike that, start building a decent squad.

I’d like to think VI is the right man but, sorry, not convinced.

It's imperative we do get back into the PL this season. Does anyone think it wit be easier with the likes of Norwich, Newcastle, Burnley joining the Championship? With only 2 years parachute money and if we don't go up we will be done for. So it's this season or never.

Very good point - but even so, part of me like the 'Never' part of that.............

Five left. And well done on getting Alex Bradley, our youth player who scored the winner in a 2-1 FA Trophy victory at Bloomfield Road a couple of years ago!

I just have this feeling that if we lose or draw against Blackpool that's it Confused

Meaning if we don't change our style of play or don't get in some really useful players, we will stay in the Championship - which to be honest i prefer anyway Wink

Can I just say to Ska’ad that working out an anagram that spells “Albania jettisons mediators” is nothing short of genius!

Notoriously tetchy at peace conferences, those Albanians.
