    Get the chopper out and shut loads cos they’re crap. Can’t see an easy way we go back up next time. Besides bringing Tripps back I would also want Dyche

    Seems that we will have a big job to sort out in the summer.

    Starting with keepers - Hladky No.2 next season?

    Following players be gone next year- Shurandy Sambo,Conner Robert (Swansea),Ashley still registered?Any of the rest if we get a suitable offer but,hopefully,we can keep Walker,Esteve,Ekdal,Humphreys,Cullen,Mejbri,Edward s,Anthony,Adewumi,Flemming,Amdouni.

    Big question marks over Tresor and Beyer (good player 3 years ago)

    Can't see us keeping Flemming, Anthony or Hannabel they will be snapped up by a Premier league club, which will no doubt help our cash flow.

    We should be able to raise a profit of around 50 million come September on transfers. Sales 90 million. Purchases 40 million. Incoming players will be like our last promotion season, season long loans with right to buys. The 3 mentioned will bring in 60 million plus with a couple who want away making up a further 30 million.

    Parker now stays for me. It will be his job to pull a squad together which will get us promoted like he successfully did last time

    If we keep Cardy which is looking likely - disastrous mid-table finish with dwindling gate receipts.He will not get lucky again with the defence because this season has proved it.
    All the players who have shown a bit of quality and/or guile will be sold off and the dross kept on with a bunch of loanees.
    Exiting players we will get fees for :-

    Esteve
    Dobravka
    Flemming
    Hannabal
    Walker
    Hartman
    Florentino
    Tchauma
    Ugochukwu
    Anthony
    Amdouni
    Tresor
    Koleosho
    Edwards
    Roberts
    Broja

    Need to get shut of players:-

    Bruun Larsen
    Tuanzebe
    Foster
    Ekdal
    Barnes

    If we had spent sod all on Players last year we would have no worse off in league position. Main aim will be to recoup some cash and rid the deadwood.

    What worries me is that we will be competing with West Spam/ Spurs and Wolves. They are better than us. So I would bet on them for automatic promotion. That leaves the play-offs. With Parker’s defensive tactics, I don’t fancy our chances.

    Championship for at least two seasons, I think.

    No opinion to give until Parker leaves the building I?m afraid

    My dad who?s 90 and used to cycle to the turf some 70 years ago says it?s the worst football in all that time he can remember( I know some of the 4 th division days were hard but you knew the end result was to try and get forward to score goals ) .
    This is negative just I?m afraid

    Well it might be a bit harsh but there is only one player on this list that I would be disappointed if we sold and that is Zian Fleming. In respect of all the rest I would not lose any sleep if they were sold or left. We seem to have a propensitity to buy sick notes and players who are physically and mentally weak. We need tough players and leaders.

    I?ve posted before Lamcaster that the rudderless ship is a lot of our problem - the man at the top is responsible for a slack
    Lazy toxic atmosphere

    I wouldn?t argue on some of the players some we haven?t seen though tbh and some have been allowed to do as they wish in a weak negative poor system - some have barely played half a season due to the managers incompetence at picking the strongest 11.

    I also believe the formation has forced our defence to be under pressure more and the likes of Esteve who is I believe a very decent player to be left exposed in many games ( hence why he?s slagged off ).

    Hannibal is the most gifted player at the club but we chose to ignore him for half a season and he was slagged off for having a bad attitude ( his first thought is forward in a team that?s conditioned to sideways and backwards - ridiculous.)

    Edwards also benched for months when he should have been utilised correctly inside the oppositions 18 yard box ( physicality wise small I accept) but tricky feet and brain amd would have scored more and got us free kicks and penalties- all difficult for him to influence games when we are playing in our own third of the field

    Lesley imo allowed to be LAZY but again played in a system I don?t believe suits him at all

    Florentino is what I would call a trier another who I think if he was managed correctly and told his job and others around did theirs he?d be better than he has been ( hence why he?s was better with Cullen in the squad ).

    Cullen I like but as captain he did as he was told and delivered Parker?s boring offerings - he?s better than that - maybe physically too small at this level but never the less always a committed player.

    Koleosho - was sold I think and shouldn?t be on the list - however he had pace and should have been utilised correctly - no
    Point having pace when you play sideways and backwards all the time.

    Foster ( contentious I know ) hasn?t covered himself in glory ) but he?s slagged off constantly and I?ve watched him wilt over time - he made countless runs into channels and never receives the pass or the ball until his confidence is bereft

    ( I?m not. Saying he?s brilliant or as Ballcock says he?s my love child ) but he has regressed under our current regime and system.

    Walker I believe even now Is better than we see there are just no offers for him - his game is strangled and he?s conformed to the negative rubbish I?m served up.

    Hartman is a gifted full back who has been cut out for the middle of the season I can only think he upset the manager not picking up smith Rowe in the Fulham game or not chasing back fir Wilson?s third ( from where I was sitting there were at least another 5-6 not bothering either so how he was singled out I?ve no idea.
    ( yet again another example of in adequate management imo anyway - no dis respect to Pires but a Dutch international full back lost his place to a non defending fancy flicks Brazilian

    I rest my case - I could go on with others aswell
    But I think it?s better left as it hasn?t changed and it isn?t going to either while this manager is in charge - illl be there Saturday to watch another fine margin defeat.
