Which gives me hope for next year. Not sure any of the relegated clubs will immediately be super competitive

Not sure any of the clubs that finished below us will be either

 I just hope Tony is not looking to emulate the Cardiff owner and change the kit colour to simply red .....bearing in mind that moneys too tight to mention

Grealish certain to leave then. A real shame to see him develop elsewhere.

I worry now we’re skint. Bruce hasn’t really shown much ability to coach and improve players. There’s plenty of players with a decent pedigree at this level or above who he’s signed and has got nothing from: Bree, Taylor, Lansbury, Hogan. Without Jack we’ve still got a lot of resource for this level and on paper should be atleast play offs. I don’t see it currently, kind.

Is he any good with kids? Green and Davies could contribute a lot more next year but I’m not sure Bruce has any history of bringing young players through.

I don't read it like that at all. Everybody will read what they want I guess.

But it's a thank you to Mr Bruce. Just before the goodbye.

I might have had a smidgeon of respect for that statement if it contained some passing reference to his own culpability for allowing so much of his money to be pissed up in the air.  Those responsible for failure are his employees after all.

Most of the money spent is parachute money...

teaching the young players to knock the ball  back to Bunn to hoof up to Hogan and hope we dont lose possession like we normally do.

You do realise that out of three clubs in the city only one has failed FFP?  And in case you’re too thick to realise it it begins with Small and ends in Heath.

They're an absolute shithouse of a club.

Although on reflection that only narrows it down to two.

That reads like a prelude to the manager’s departure.

Absolutely this.
