We probably knew it already but I thought it was interesting to see it in black-and-white as it puts things in perspective. I also made the suggestion that establishing a clear direction as a club and communicating it effectively could be beneficial to making progress on the pitch and building bridges with disaffected fans off it in what could prove to be a few difficult years ahead. Most of us knew what you were getting at Whokilledthecrobin but we’re all very pissed off already without you making an unnecessary point………….

You would still have gone to Halifax midweek in 82/3, and I don’t think she would've stood for/comprendez-vous'd that. And she's more chien than chat so no chance ....

In hindsight I’m not sure I understand that decision myself, let alone whatever Ms. Binoche thinks. Forget points deductions, this is the real potential tragedy right here. You wouldn’t let it lie re the cats & dogs thing, would you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would certainly be exciting… the Hull game would be massive! As would Derby the week before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveybadger Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 Yes, but also if Derby hadn’t cheated we’d have beaten them 3 or so years ago when they had Mount and Tomori, to get into the play offs then the Prem. We’d have then been relegated but would’ve joined the parachute payments yo yo club, bouncing between the C’ship and Prem for eternity. Basically a red shirted Norwich. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at the Championship table……….. Personally i believe a very valid point has been made................if it wasn't for points deductions, we would probably be on our way to the 1st Division.....it is not something that should be lightly dismissed, as it needs to be recognised that we are extremely fortunate to still be in the Championship. Next season we CANNOT afford to be so complacent, big changes are absolutely essential. Edited April 11, 2022 by maxjak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was that we’re already really frustrated and pissed off and don’t really need a post pointing out the bloody obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
