stupid comment
whether they had won the league or not, they would want a win at home in their final game
Naive comment…

If they don't win the play-offs, they will lose players, quality players may take a lot of persuading to go there and they will have to pay over the odds to land their targets. I think on reputation VK outpoints Farke and we could still avoid relegation, however unlikely that seems right now. They ...

I think it reasonable to suggest that (assuming we are relegated) it would make life easier for us next season if Leeds were to be promoted.
(Much as I dislike them)
Maybe you are right, but there’s just something about seeing Leeds anywhere other than the top flight….

If odobert got a decent run on the outside I’d say he could do a real job. Looks a top talent to me.

Good player when he was here (and before). Rated him quite highly, not many others did, including the manager who had his favourites.
Criminally underused and underrated. We certainly looked a better threat and far more mobile up top when he played.
Good luck to the lad.
