Things will not change until the club has new owners. Tony Stewart has used up all his goodwill.
    I noticed John 2 is not replying to your post ! Perhaps he goes or maybe not ? The point is it?s been a chore dragging yourself to the games this season and that follows on from a shocker the year previous. Surely we watch football for the highs and lows, pleasure , enjoyment,disappointments, drama ? It?s been sadly missing this season ? Apart from a great performance against Charlton and a good one against Bolton it?s been poor ? How many games have we never looked like scoring, Barnsley stands out, 10 minutes stoppage time never resulted in an effort on target ! and there were many games like this ? being demolished with teams such as Burton and others in the bottom 4.
    Fundamentally I can?t see any likely improvement next season, our budgets blown with two year contracts for the likes of JCH, Kelly and Dawson who have managed only a handful of of games between them. Hughil weighs heavy on our wages, the only money we will get to spend is the wages of Oddofin, Humphries, Green and Wilkes who will all be leaving this summer?
    SE has managed to oversea a totally unbalanced team with no wingers, no natural goal scorer, no pace anywhere in sight and a real dearth of defenders ! We have been playing recently with three midfielders in the back four and even if Raggett was fit, we would only have one spare defender, put simply it?s a shambles,
    How can it change next season ? we have nobody left to sell to raise cash and no prospects coming through ? never been as bereft of ability going back as far as the last 40 years?

    and who's to blame for ALL of this over the past 3 years?

    Like Millersrus, I too will be renewing as always.
