    Of course all this lot is the Allams fault.

    Pretty sure that if Sr Silva had been appointed during the summer, and the same players bought / loaned now were here then, we would have been a totally different proposition.

    As it is, sadly I think we will slip through the trap door by the narrowest of margins and will look back saying 'if only'.

    Desperately hope Im wrong, but with the two tw4ts in charge the club is royally ****ed.

    Oh and Elmo, he's worse than ****. He's doesn't even try.

    Elmo's worse than Groshitski and Marcovicshitske put together.

    Pretty much, I said when he took over the damage has already been done by pissing about in the first half of the season. The sale of the club in the Summer was a fiasco, which cost us in the transfer window. Putting Phelan in charge seemed like the right choice at the time and I know hindsight is a wonderful thing, but it's cost us massively.

    Relegation would no doubt see the Allams here for yet another season, limited funds in Summer and a very small squad. A shame that we couldn't build this season, Bournemouth would have been the model to follow.

    Stoke are probably a better model. Local businessman takes over local club, bankrolls it through sustained growth over several years.

    Just have a feeling AFCB could be 'over-heating' in the background.

    Escab Allam, the man who wouldn't even read Marco Silva's CV...

    Their owner is Maxim Demin, they aren't going to run out of money any time soon.

    Livermore was ok for us once he resolved the personal problems.

    If he suddenly starts scoring goals now that's when I'll wonder if he really did as good as he should have here.

    I'd have Markovic in the team ahead of him any day. Markovic is one of those players who can be quiet for 89 minutes and pop up in the other with something marvellous that can change or win a game. He has incredible pace, great ball control and a desire and ability to not only run at defenders but straight past them.

    Grosicki is involved all the time and move into good positions but he either wears his boots on the wrong feet or is stealing a living because he can't kick a ball whatsoever.

    At least Markovic might do something good, Grosicki just wastes attack after attack and to be brutally honest we'd probably be stronger playing with 10 men than having him in the team.

    The lad is ****ing awful.

    He was ok nothing more, he's played 5 times for WBA. An England call up is either an early April fools or England's standards have plummeted to championship level

    Grosicki looks desperate to make an impact, he tries too hard and then loses confidence when it doesn't happen.
    I still think there's a player there, but I wish he'd stop cutting his own hair.

    We have a problem with players doing the legwork but not having the vision or confidence to go for goal; I'm fairly sure they have the ability or they wouldn't have got where they are.

    Pound to a pinch that if you threw two jumpers on some grass, Harry would be banging them in left, right and centre.
