    Saw that missen. (I was hoping to see how the fan reacted to the roof :)) I thought I was on the BBS at times with similar criticisms to our lot over recent months lol.

    To be fair, I assume they're referencing our recent form/position in the table rather than the size of the club.

    'Teams like' comments are always patronising. If you play a team and they're good that's all there is to it. If the team you play are crap the same applies. I would make an exception for teams like Wednesday but that's another story....

    Dead right mate.
    By the way, congratulations on the Utd hat trick of wins in a row.
    It was certainly needed

    I agree Helen and the way the seasons going us Bolton and Huddersfield will be locking horns again in league one all as equals.

    Yeah you’d say so, although they normally have better support. You’d expect both to be challenging at this level.

    Some of their online fans were very complementary towards our players as well.

    Been a weird season for some of the teams you’d expect to do well, and frustrating that we gave up so early given the lack of real quality currently vying for 6th place:

    Looking that way I hope Charlton Wrexham and brum go up 2 big sized clubs and Wrexham. I'm hoping donny, Bradford walsall and Grimsby come up.

    As for the teams who arguably should have done better, I'd say Wigan, Peterbrough, Exeter, Blackpool, and Rotherham especially.
    The positive surprises of the season, I think have been Stockport and L.Orient.
    And as for us, yeah its such a disappointment seeing us fall away like this. Especially as nobody has looked that great, in the chase for 6th place.

    Really don't want Wrexham to go up. Sick of seeing them everywhere. Saw a Leyton orient fan mention when they got promotion, not a squeek, but it was plastered all over when Wrexham did. And I get it, because of their owners, but so bored of seeing it, pretending it's a rags to riches story.

    I agree completely. I’d like for them to miss out this season. It would be a set back. Much has been made of their great accounts, but those are for last year, and they still boiled down to a loss.

    If they don’t go, up this year will have been a very expensive one for them without the reward of the championship money, as I believe they pay big wages. and they will probably still need a bit of a rebuild given the ages of some of their players.
