2024/25 Relegation Thread

[JLW]

One positive for us is that I originally thought the league was stronger this year than last. But I actually now feel the likes of Southampton, Leicester and Ipswich aren't really any better than the like of Luton and Burnley were last season. Secondly the other teams down there like Palace, wolves and Brentford seem to be weaker too

And yet we are still looking up to them all you mention!

The only difference between most of the squads in the bottom half is the manager.

Some teams have stronger players in certain positions and weaker in others, but overall the squads are pretty much the same. The manager is the difference

Pinning a lot of our hopes on Branthwaite being fit is absolutely frightening.

God forbid he got a season long injury.

That would certainly put the cat amongst the pigeons.

Or has had his head turned and wants out of this car crash...

I think it's safe to say he's gone next summer anyway.

Yes, all the more reason to protect himself from injury. If that enters his head even subsconsciously, well, he won't be the same player for us that he was...

Very much so

Why are we paying the manager and players then Rob?

I'm not sure he does have the fans, Rob...

I'm not sure intelligent fans have the stomach for being treated like idiots by this club and its owners once more, Rob.

 

[Wat Tyler]

He absolutely HAS to go.

I think we will be fine ultimately, but a good section of our fans deserve relegation. The hatefulness and ignorance expressed is deeply disturbing. They sound like MAGA folk

Do you mean lads at the game? What's being said?

He also needs Tarks alongside him as too young to be the senior talker in the backline. Tarks even being out for two months would be a huge issue aswell.

Basically the season rests on the two best CBs by a mile at the club playing the remaining 95% of the season.

I actually don't blame the lads at the game too much, even the childish babies trying smash seats at the end of games and scaring kids etc. The rampant hateful individual targeting bile spoke afterwards, online warriors, idiots calling into radio shows and embarrassing themselves, those fat clowns at the train stations etc.

If folk hate all the players, the manager and club in general and genuinely cant wait to have their ill informed opinions validated by defeat then [Poor language removed] to prenton park.
