From season 4 released in the UK next week. Really looking forward to it.

Watford not messing about I see. Rudkin still looking through holiday brochures, he probably can't decide where to go.

There's an awful lot that needs to be done between now and the beginning of the League One campaign. I'd thought it would be interesting to keep track of what's going on. In my mind, today is day 1 of pre-season. So far, nothing has happened. How long before we get a statement from the club? How long before there's a decision on the management? How long before announcing player departures or arrivals? My fear is that we go quite far into pre-season before anything meaningful happens. Today, if Rowett is leaving, it should be announced. Pointless waiting any longer.

I dunno. I've been Ayew Out most of the season, but after that assist today, maybe one more year?

I just wish there were another 10 games after that. We'd have been fine. GR just needed time to get it to click.

Great finish. Great assist. Exactly what we deserve.

So close!

Rowett trolling us now

Ayew! It's happening

Probably come on for Monga

Good clearance from Daka there.

We nearly scored a goal

I watched PSG v Bayern earlier in the week. This is nit quite the same.

Well Daka will be available on a free next season. Try before you buy?

I was a bit worried about this game. Turns out there was no need. This is exactly the type of progressive, one-eye-on-the-future line up I was hoping for.

As much as bad decisions have harmed the club, I'd argue that periods of indecision, especially around managers have cost us more. I'm genuinely at the point of not particularly caring who the manager is right now, but what I would like to see is some quicker decision making. If Rowett is going, announce it this weekend. If he's staying, announce it this weekend. If he does leave, get on with appointing someone asap. Please don't drag it on as we have done previously, let's get someone in before 1st June so they can have a decent summer of watching the tapes back, understanding what players we have, what we need and then get cracking so that we hit the ground running on the first day of pre-season training. My fear is that after the final whistle this weekend, Top and Rudkin will switch their phones off and put their out of office on until the training ground reopens for pre-season and we'll be starting from the pit lane, instead of being at the front of the grid waiting for lights out.

So if we win we finish 6 points behind Blackburn, with a better goal difference. That adds legitimacy to the claim that we were relegated because of off field issues, and could/would be used to somewhat paper over the cracks. I don't want us humiliated or anything like that, but if there was ever a game I didn't want us to win, it's this one.

I don't think Top has got any money to throw at the club. The King Power brand has to be sustained first before money can be spent on play things. And KP don't appear to be especially flush right now. Didn't the commentator mention last night that we received £100m in TV money last season. Next season it will be £2m. Last season our wage bill was £150m, League One average wage bill is £9m. The finances are dire. Any saleable asset will be gone and Souttar will be close to top of the list.

Souttar won't be here next season. No chance.

Most important thing for me is that regardless of the result, we finish at least 7 points adrift.

No lap of honour?

Great draw. Get in.

He needs a season of first team football. Probably League One level. I have visions of him leaving us in the summer and then being loaned back to us where we'll figure out that actually he's quite good and we should have given him more game time this season. He'll also probably sign a more lucrative deal with his next club and when he's loaned back to us, we'll probably agree to pay his wages.

What on earth was he doing there?

Out of contract? So available on a free? Could be just what we need
