There’s nobody else currently.

I don’t think anyone can complain about that, now for the players to back the coach up.

Yep, and slightly more defensive concentration. While other teams have been clinical, we’ve let our guard down and been duly punished. If we keep clean sheet’s then we will win.

Do not risk him in these two games. If he got injured again that would be suicidal. Get him good to go for Bristol City after the break.

We used a hundred years worth of records, comebacks, grit, everything in 2015/16. We are paying back our spiritual debt.

They still have a higher expected goals than we mustered in our home game with Arsenal last season.

Well away from home we’ve been playing very well. If we play how we did against Leeds or Bournemouth, we win both games, probably pretty comfortably. The blue print is there, we just have to enact it.

We’re away from home against two inconsistent teams. IF we can get some rhythm in our play then we can win both. Being away from home will help us a lot and it’s arguable that our best performances this season have all been away from home.

Despite the negativity, I think 4 points from the next two games leaves us in a tolerable position. 6 and the worries clear.

They’re at home and Sunderland fans aren’t exactly known for their patience so I doubt they’ll just sit back.

Just to remember, the club aren’t poor, it’s just struggling to comply with strict financial rules.

Just looking at their forum and these are well and truly in the mud. Their predicted starting XI is so far from what it was when we played them in October. There literally isn’t a better team to play right now to get back on track. Play our game well and we win comfortably.

She wins the title, fantastic stuff

Not quite the same but Leeds run over Christmas was terrible and looked terminal and then they won 9 in a row with a bit of luck along the way. It can be done.

Surely the most Brendan performance ever is this. Multiple brainfarts from multiple players. He is a rot.

Feels like you’re clinging on for hope which is a terrible sign.

Everyone talks about crosses from Albeighton and what not, but who is heading them in? Our team is tiny.

And now the final! Well done Katie. She’ll be world no.27 if she wins. Not bad for a gal from Quorn.

Doubt we’ll be seeing Pucovski who has suffered another head injury.

Probably the cost of Claude’s salary. To be fair cutting the playing squad should hopefully help.

Indeed. If we do not get promoted here, then the only way is down. And as other people have pointed out, therapists in Leicestershire will be making a killing. Because it’s downright depressing and makes you wonder if it’s worth the emotional energy.

Why? Not getting promoted this season is existential for this football club.

It’s over if we don’t go up this season. We lose Mads, KDH, Wilf, anyone else. We have to cut our budget by half. Enzo probably walks. We will then be Stoke or Reading mk.2. I will be done with football

Really struggling at the minute. Been watching too much news, I’ve found myself stocking up cans and tins in case of a conflict between ourselves and Russia. I can’t seem to switch my head off of it and thinking to myself there’s only one way to avoid it. I think I can talk myself out of doing anything stupid but it’s really hard not to get consumed.

I hate this stupid sport and football club
