In an ordinary season we’d now only be approaching late October and it’d be tempting to say it’s too early to call.
The figures don’t lie though...we have 96 points left to play for but, on the evidence of last season we’ll need 49 - another 42 of those 96 - to stay up.
42 from 96 requires a massive improvement on our current record of 7/42. Something needs to change seriously quickly and even now any points deduction must be seen as virtually terminal.

I’m not sure how this isn’t now having some detrimental impact on the takeover. Would you pay the same for a club destined for League 1 as you would for the Championship club with huge potential you might have thought you were buying?
