    We did play well derby but not so sure we would have done so well if they hadn't been on the beach. Also i think they had a few young lads in but you still have to beat whats put in front of you tbf.

    When next season starts need Nombe up front not on the right. Odoffin in a back 3 playing 3-5-2.

    Agree SAW.

    We might not have had a January as quiet but the chairman clearly had LR as a holding man and was resigned to going down. He's said as much.

    I think SE would have lit the fire under the lads, gone for a basic but effective style of play.

    Would we have been safe? Not sure. Would we have been as bad as we have? No.

    Birmingham going down on 50 points is an eye opener. I can't remember a team going down with that many points.

    I think Posh were relegated to L1 a few years back with 50+ points?

    Agree, it’s unusual though

    It usually happens when one team has a very poor season. Blackburn went down with 51 pts when we finished bottom with 23 pts in 2017.

    2012-13 was an anomaly when both Posh with 54 and Wolves with 51 went down to L1. Bristol City finished bottom with 41 that year.

    You have been sprouting about oddofin being played in midfield all season. Big lad does and you immediately say he should be in the back 3. Getting tedious now M8.

    Tell me when I've said play Odoffin in midfield? He's been our best centre back all season.

    Don't know if this was aimed in my direction.

    yes, it was a good win, and enjoyable, but you can't extrapolate from an end-of-term game of no consequence that the performance shows that we could have stayed up if.... or if .....

    One swallow does not make a summer, so to speak.

    On paper you could make a good case for some of Taylor's recruitment, and there were a few occasions when the potential showed. But there was a lack of team cohesion and character.

    It didn't take long for the deficiencies to show. Would the introduction of Evans at an earlier stage have made a difference? Debatable.

    I think not.
