He’s been backed and won’t be going anywhere yet. 3/4 new players in jan with extra backing. Players been called into training today (was a day off). Response needed v Burnley now
We are down.

These extra 3/4 players need to be relatively proven. I thought Moreles was hopeless today, awful shooting and then did that awful dive at the end to get sent off yet again v Rangers so really hope we don't spend 20m + on him.

How far into the season are we? Where were we last season at this time?

If Smith is staying i would hope the owners have among other things, a contingency plan in place for possible relegation and all it's knock on effects, otherwise they're making a massive assumption that we won't go down.

So have you, and I'd guessed you can add up.

The back of the Sun football pull out today had the table after twenty games in Lamberts first year. We only two points worse off so anything is possible if we remember how that season ended. But at the moment it's hard to be too optimistic.

The one that says we're down after 20 games when we're a point off the team above.

A) they will be for sure looking at replacement options in case dean can’t turn this around this month. I would imagine some points targets in place as minimums
B) if worst case happened and we went down we would be ok mainly from the sales of Jack, McGinn and Mings. Circa £150m.
C) With option b and parachute payments we won’t even be close to ffp issues

England Manager caught taking bungs and saying how to work the system. Have we really sunk that that low?

No it could be way worse...we could have convicted tax criminals Ronaldo and Messi playing for us too. Thank goodness we dodged those bullets.

His description of the Porn stars was pretty accurate.
