Tbh I saw a good post on there the other day that summed it up well. Managers aside, they took a team which was relegated pretty comprehensively from the PL last year, sold two of its best players, and loaned out all the other decent ones. No fucking mystery that they ended up at the foot of the Championship on that evidence. You have to wonder how many of the current crop of players will stay when they fall into League 1 as well. Oviedo must see himself as above that. Cattermole possibly, shit as he is. O'Shea? How many will actually stick around for League 1...
-
I think they'd get national press if they hit administration tbh. As for the players, the one out on loan maybe more than £10m. In terms of what they actually have in their first team, they seem pretty dire.
-
What kind of decision? Like he might let them hit administration in order to cut his losses? His background is in asset stripping businesses or something like that right? I could actually see him making a brutal decision here, although the press would go ballistic I suspect.
-
Suppose that's true. I can't see them hitting administration though, not really. I mean I think that's what we all have in the back of our minds, but are they really run that badly? Would Short even let that happen?
-
I thought they were scaled down each year, but it should still be sizeable by League 1 standards. If they offload their loan players for a few 10s of million and pick up the parachute payments, they probably will be ok. I mean that external debt costs them £10m per season or something like that, right? I suppose most of the parachute will go into paying off the external debt though. I imagine more austerity will follow in spending.
-
What the fuck? Did you get permanently banned from RTG? Or has all of this suddenly become too much to hold in? Decent post though. I do wonder what will happen to them.

But if tomorrow is so important, can't you just check into a hotel for one night to make sure you're well rested. Not selfish really, considering. I don't fully grasp the situation though. Hope all works out anyway.
-
Hotel?

If we can just keep performance levels up, we should take Bournemouth. Manage that and I think we can rattle along safely for the rest of the season without getting overly concerned about relegation. We're away so they should attack us, and that should allow for our counterattacking to come into its own.

...unbelievable that someone this incompetent is where he is.
-
I sat through the whole thing - didn't improve and was a let down. Fucking bizarre trying to pull it into some kind of alignment with the original Cloverfield which it patently wasn't written to have anything to do with.
-
Aye, with their GD as it is, they're effectively 4 points from safety at the moment. I cannot get my head around the fact that they're actually as shit as they are.

Actually yeah, I forgot it was him. Does make more sense now. -

WBA certainly look like they're on their way out. Not entirely sure how that has happened tbh, they've been a relatively stable club for some time. -
Ah so it was more fortunate circumstance than grit and determination? Makes sense.
-
I wonder if that 3-3 is going to be a turnaround point for them. Did Bristol get someone sent off or what? Struggling to imagine how that Sunderland team summons up that level of enthusiasm tbh...

Course we're going to survive man. We're not actually playing too badly in general, just failing to be clinical enough in front of goal. Had Slimani been playing in our previous couple of draws we would probably have an extra 4 points by now. We're well organised with a good level of commitment - if Slimani is even just a slight improvement on Joselu we should be fine. -
Congrats mate, glad you're sorted. Don't feel bad either, you have to look out for yourself.

Hence the need for someone to support them and fight their corner, and why Peterson is so important.

Ok. Thats not true but ok. If you look at where many of those who attended Charlottesville came from - nice households with no history of racism, who were shocked that their sons were attending such an event, to the point of then excommunucating them from the family... These arent dyed in the wool racists, not all of them.

Well that's what I did at university, and you told me I should have just enjoyed myself more. Implication being "why were you wasting time talking to radfems"
