Personally I’d view a ‘7’ as a right winger. 
Not sure when we started calling them a ‘7’ though??  

When CR7 became a thing i think

Perhaps he meant the training pitch is the same size...

They are always trying to find a way to downplay everything about us the little cuties

Not the end of the world. Williams has been part of the mediocre squad we have had for the past few years. Time to freshen it up.

If we were to start the season with Naismith (needs to stay fit!), Bird and Knight in midfield it wouldn’t be a bad thing.

I think Williams has stepped up a gear over the last ten or so games of the season. He’s getting his mojo back after suffering from those injuries and actually has that dirty / aggressive edge which we have lacked for years.

I think it’s a bad thing he’s going especially with James gone. He does have a lot of experience at this level too. I think if we replaced him with someone better it would cost us a lot.

And Naismith haha…I keep forgetting he still plays for us.

Who cares? Does this really affect your day-to-day life? 

You support Liverpool dont you 

Crawley saved by VAR then. Should have been booked for simulation too surely literally no contact.

Fury always comes back…..

Thought Oxford were very good tactically over the 3 playoff games.  Excellent blocking of passing lanes.  Not hugely adventurous with the ball, but against Peterborough and Bolton (two heavy passing sides) it suited them very nicely indeed.

Nice to have a close away game too.

So has this changed your opinion on Brannigan who by all accounts has been one of their tops performers over these big games?

OK, I apologise for making you look like a dick. 

Definitely stealing this one @Silvio Dante hands off

Wonder if Manning has mixed feelings about joining us for a mediocre half season or missing out on the glory of winning a Wembley playoff final?

     Obviously a lot of ifs and but’s, but a promotion on his CV would have done his career no harm whatsoever.

I’m sure we pay him a lot more than Oxford would.

We`ve never played a competitive game at the Kassam I don`t think.

Thought we played them early 2000s in LDV may be wrong. 

Fair play Oxford, new away day for many I imagine! 

Just had a peek at the Oxford forum. “Thank God Manning left “

I think his post-match presser after the game against us at St Mary's is a good start! Sore loser.

But they won? Or do you mean the the most memorable result we had in a decade that Tinnion takes all the credit for? 
 

Plenty of them about I guess, seemed a tad bit arrogant when at Swansea

WBA win just to see Russell Martin crying in his post-match presser.

How come you don’t like him? I don’t really have an opinion on him but I don’t see many favourable comments towards him.

Bolton game done at 5-2 , back to Crawley it is.

Quick question , Are Franchise MK still the most disliked side in the EFL ?

Whatever are Barnsley going to do not bouncing back up in the first two seasons back?

Home support in terms of tickets sold is bloody great. Our away support remains fairly poor though, no reason we should have a lower average than the likes of Preston and QPR

 

Yeah I think there are a lot of variables though like who you are playing on what days etc. Also some clubs like Preston historically take loads to teams around them and we get our allocation limited in games like Swansea and Cardiff. But you are right we should have higher attendances. 
 

However those home attendances aren’t exactly accurate are they? There were several games at home where fans on here were saying that there was a few thousand short of what was being announced. I guess that happens everywhere but hard to tell.

Yes, but quality is quality.  Any rate Murphy comes from arguably same level

Down here Brighton are reported to be interested

Nothing to say city might already be scouting him but my first thought was that there must be others interested. Smacks of a Peterborough investment.

What a season.

Wonder if we see Ipswich make a move for him, they do like these explosive players.

Bill sharp on for Hull hopefully he stays quiet

Sunderland had a bit of a shit one this season, did not expect to see them there.

Just now, eardun said:

Me too

Hull have no chance now though with WBA 3 up and would have to have brum thump Norwich by several goals. I bet the fans there are muted. 

Just now, HOZDA said:

Rotherham 5 goals haha

Yeah I think that’s slightly worse than our result currently.

Just now, The Original OTIB said:

Where will Szmodics be next season, I wonder.

Anywhere between league 1 and prem haha

When’s the last time we lost a game by this margin or even a 3 goal one? Doesn’t happen very often 

Just now, Alessandro said:

The flak Ashton got on here (including from me)

Then off he goes to back to back promotions.

The biggest kick in the teeth and reality check.

All those fans on here who back the Lansdown’s to the hilt…just think about Mark Ashton celebrating tonight what we should have done years ago.

Another team to add to that list….
 

Struggled the first two seasons didn’t he? From what people have said on here they have spent a fortune to get up into the championship, then a bit more on top to get into the prem riding that wave of momentum.
