2024/25 Relegation Thread

We didn’t. You could argue the initial points deduction galvanised the team and fans and led to a short term uptick of results. We certainly put 3 or 4 wins together at the time.

We were also very lucky with injuries last season in a way we haven’t been so far this, and of course the league is stronger this season and the likes of Forest have improved enormously.

We definitely have a bottom 6 squad.

What on earth are you on about? :lol:

We got 48 points. We finished mid table. I don’t care where we finished in your hypothetical made up world.
 
We didn’t finish mid table, it’s not my world, it’s the actual real world.

The fact is is we have a bottom 6 quality squad this season.

We earned enough points to finish 12th which is mid table. That’s sadly the real world.

The fact we are in the position we are currently in means that the manager has taken us backwards and should be sacked.

And this squad just isn’t very good at all.

So the fact we had 8 points taken off us due to financial irregularities is the evidence you’re using to show that we have a bottom 6 squad? Not your best effort this, I have to say.

This manager is underperforming and should be sacked.

I watch football mate, my eyes tell me we have a bottom 6 squad. Curious what squads you think are worse? West Ham, Man Utd!?

I watch football too and my eyes tell me that this manager plays garbage football and has played it his entire career. Do you not think the fact we look terrible when you watch us has something to do with the manager?

I don’t think our squad is any worse than Bournemouth’s or Brentford’s on paper. We won more points on the football pitch than both of them last season too so reality sort of backs me up.

I do however think our manager is much worse than theirs. Our manager is underperforming and should be sacked.

My brother told me tonight a blue husband was in the middle of decorating, asked his wife for 2 hours off to watch our game on IPTV - he posted on Tofeeweb - he watched 20 minutes of the first half & turned it off & went back to his decorating :D - he knew the outcome .... with the team selected ....all down to Dyche :(
 
we can do better with a better manager

I think the squad is poor.
Today at one point I think it was Doucoure (just before he was subbed), sort of walked back to make a half arsed attempt at a tackle.... I think he was actually giving it full effort....athough he did kick off with defenders when west ham nearly scored. I just thought we actually have a bunch of pensioners playing for us.
I'm having doubts about Dyche, just because im tired of the negativity. But I honestly think the squad is very poor and I'm not sure what anyone else could do with players that can't control a ball or find a pass.

I’m not defending Dyche btw. I think a progressive manager could get slightly better results and with a much better playing style. I’d happily take that, but we aren’t going to be flying up the table whoever takes over this squad.

Doucoure shouldn’t be in the team. A manager that values playing football wouldn’t have him anywhere near their side.

The trouble is, we have very few options. Since Garner, Tim, and McNeill are inujred, and will be unavailable for some weeks, the only other realistic choice is Harrison. Is he better than Doucoure? Maybe, but maybe not. Among today's subs were two centre backs, two keepers, and two youth team players that nobody had head of before this season. That's how thin the squad is.
