I understand that the players will ultimately follow the guidance of the PFA, but personally, I'd love to see them take a stand and go on strike. We've reached a point where forfeiting fixtures doesn't concern me anymore - what matters is finding a resolution to the absolute mess we're currently in.

Think you're right regarding Mandaric and Holloway. Always liked Holloway and genuinely felt sorry for him that day.

Same, I was sat in home end and got rumbled for my reaction to Deon Burton having his penalty saved. Understandably there was a nasty atmosphere in the home end, with loads of abuse flying towards Ian Holloway.

Is he? I know a couple of people who have worked with him before, one knows the family very well, and they all say he's genuinely a great Lad.

Oh absolutely, I was told by someone who was there in the dressing room that Kirkland completely lost the plot when he heard when Colin had said during the post match interview and went looking for him.

Sadly I think that this is the plan for captain chaos.

I'd take that out of those three options. My biggest concern now is that he's doing something along the lines of option 1. eg, getting rid of any high earners, stripping us back to the absolute minimum so he can maintain and keep hold of us. Other than us ceasing to exist, this is the next worst option in my view.

and, despite his persona, is actually a very switched and successful individual, unlike Captain Chaos.

Whilst it's no surprise, it's still an incredibly sad day which has been compounded by news of all other coaches also leaving. My concern is that we still haven't hit rock bottom, I genuinely can't see us being in a position to start the season, let alone finish it. Absolute shambles from Chansiri, I'll never understand how people like this can sleep at night knowing the devastation they've caused to thousands of people who live and breathe this club.

Bryan Robson - hard as nails but could do it all. Gazza - Genius, don't think we're likely to see anyone else like that in an England shirt. Ronaldo Nazario - pre injuries he was the most explosive player I've ever seen. Saw him live for Barcelona in 1998 and couldn't get over how quick he was compared to everyone else Pirlo - class personified.

Danced on the table, fell off in the Final - The Chris Wilder experience. Wilder’s playoff legacy: all pashun, no promotion.

Have that Wilder you

Footballers aren't employees on open ended contracts, they're effectively contract workers over a 2/3 year period. Would you seriously play and risk a career ending injury (thus voiding any future contracts) for a club who weren't going to renew your contract and had been messing you around with your wages? even to protect your "image and marketing for fan engagement"? I don't like what he did but I understand it and I'd have done exactly the same.

21 years. A total of 1207 posts during that time do not reflect the fact that I'm on here multiple times every single day, it's often the first and last thing I check in the day.

Embarrassing isn’t the word
