    F**k-em. We don't need it. Stayed under the radar for much of the Prem promotion season; quite happy to do so again.

    a) Good - it's usually a kiss of death
    b) They've looked at it purely on results. In August we did only win 3 games. Posh had 5, Pompey 4, Walsall 5, Sunderland 4 wins (all including Carabao cup)

    oh...I did not realise that being in third place was not in the top four.

    Can’t see what the issue is.

    We were second favourites for promotion & were 5th in the table. Surely the 4 above deserved to be nominated more?

    Anyway, it’s all luck & timing. I’m only interested in us getting as many wins as possible over the course of the season rather than us been lucky enough to win every game in any one calendar month

    I don't see the fuss either. We only won half our four league games in August and that involved drawing the last two of them. For second favourites to win the league, I can see why the panel probably thought we underachieved. They will have looked at where in the league those teams we played are based on their other games. We didn't play any of the other top sides in the league.

    You’ll have to have another look then, because we won 3 of 5 league games

    We weren’t third at the end of August DT.

    Painting by numbers in the first month, nominate the top four, give it to who was top.

    Evans shouldn't have been involved after getting sent off and fined at the weekend.
