How do you work that out ? Surely 3 teams can finish on 6 points. West Ham beat Swindon and Swindon beat MK Dons then if will be on GD Yea thanks, can`t see that hammers team beating Swindon. I can't either, but I don't know if Swindon deliberately played stronger side against us than they would fo...

Robbie Savage is actually a really good shout!! The guy was a great professional footballer who is well regarded and a bit of a tough guy so would command respect. He also seems to be an all-round good likeable person and at Macclesfield the players loved him, yes, he is only a baby in terms of his...

Esteban The squad is better than 21st in the league.

Anybody can play fantasy football based on data. Real life is very different. Everybody else was able to do their transfer business earlier. Building a team from what's left. Was always going to require a degree of luck. No preseason to gel either.

BRO_BOT What kind of tinpot team loses to League Two opposition

Wolfcastle says HI!!!

Man U

Pitch was water logged in places, A great leveller.

Swindon were 92nd at one point in the football league last season. The transformation underway with Holloway is what all football fans dream of. Worth noting that Swindon also finished the game without a centre half/centre back. Three fullbacks aged 19, 20 and 21. Not just big chequebooks that matter.

Do wonder if Hunt's being set up for a fall, was that a vote of confidence in the week Owner's are impatient for instant results. A revolving door creates instability. Successfull clubs stick wth their manager's. Phil Parkinson is now the 7th longest serving manager out of the 92. Building teams is...

Your wage bill is the main determinate of the quality of your squad in L1, not transfer budget. Sheffield Wednesday had the 4th lowest wage in the Championship in 23/24 season - £22.3 million . When the owner runs out of readies as hasn't hit the big time payout. The disintegration of the club star...

Never giving a public interview............

Any Pheonix Club will have to start small.... I once worked out that a Sunday pub team is 12 promotions and sh*t loads of money and luck away from winning the Premier League. So, to begin with we need to form a team ourselves made up of fans. I actually think this is the ultimate challenge and achi...

Agree This season is purely about survival. Thanks to Selles and his brilliant team (now gone), we have some decent points on the board….we’ll be fine Chill People speak about Selles but I reckon it is the loss of the rest of his backroom team that is just as impactful as I doubt we have anyone of ...

genome 3 year contract rofl

Means nothing. Other than a bonus if the club gets taken over. Good academy staff are in high demand across the leagues.

After last weeks no show, and nobody can convince me now that the players weren`t aware of the off field issues how much the players will be up for this or they`ll all be thinking bugger this if we`re busting a gut for this club why aren`t higher management doing the same? Hope I`m wrong, and I usu...

Selles must be mentally drained. Why stay in a job where it's little more than treading water. I'm sure another club would happily pay compensation.

Say that one of us won £100m on Euromillions, the Couhig deals falls through and it's a case of us buying the club or it going bankrupt. Even out of administration you have to spend something like £30m to buy the club, stadium and training ground. You're then presented with the current running cost...

The amounts of money involved these days has fundamentally changed the sport. I know a lot of people that have turned their backs on the higher leagues. Returned to grass roots where clubs are an integral part of the community 24/7. Not just 23 match days a year. Far cheaper to watch as well.

1 Million is good business and exactly how we need to operate in the future to be able to sustain ourselves as a club and to help fund the Academy. The crazy thing about the transfer is the timing especially regarding the takeover of the club and who has sanctioned the move? Is it the old regime or...

It’s so opaque at the moment but even if we got a deal over the line tomorrow pre-season has probably been somewhat compromised. We’ve got to be on the back foot before we’ve even started, so a rough start has got to be expected. I reckon we’re in trouble at Christmas but fairly comfortably 15th by...

WestYorksRoyal For all his damage, many reputable staff members at the club are happy to go on record that Dai has never taken out a penny.

Why would Dai pull money out of a club he's personally funding. Illogical to suggest he would.

Just wondering on the ramifications for the game if the authorites moved to outlaw any amortisation on player transfers and so effectively forced clubs to pay fees 100% up front. Hoping it would reduce the utterly ludicrous size of transfer fees that are a feature of the game these days and hopeful...

£5 - £6 million over 5 years is small change given football finances today. Not enough to transform the club's fortunes overnight.
