Championship 2025/26 Season

Aware our squad was better last time, but how well did Enzo start  we were on 30 points at this stage last time

Will Still back in his comfort zone. Keeper behaving like an actual FM keeper.

Danny Ward levels right there.

We’re currently 10th. This must be our lowest league position since about 2011. The slide continues

And to think we've not really played any of the good teams yet....

 

Besides Coventry who were mediocre at best.

I've just realised Coady hasn't even made Wrexham's match day squad

And points deduction to come.

If we scrape into the playoffs this season we will be lucky considering we have points deduction too. I’m realistic about where we are now , we’ve regressed about 12 years.

Look how little fans are at shef wed. We could only dream of doing a proper boycott/protest. Proper fans who want change 

 

our fans could never

Didn't expect West Brom to lose tonight. 

 

New manager bounce @Super_horns?

Well after Saturday we definitely needed an improved performance.

 

And it was .

 

Chalk and cheese between home and away form .

 

Unfortunately got Coventry away next !

 

West Brom looked tidy and like us scored an excellent but didn’t create much else .

 

Seemed to be another side who liked being in possession without doing a lot .

I think Southampton and especially Ipswich's starts are more surprising then ours.

Definitely, both spent plenty of money and attempted to refresh squad. I'm too lazy to look myself but I wonder whether there are similar reactions to the manager on their forums. McKenna probably has credit in the bank but if Still was managing here and started like he has he'd be under immense pressure.

I'm not big on the whole xg thing, but there is no way that's sustainable over a full season. 

It's not, but creating chances really isn't an issue they generally have

We were top on 30 points, +17GD and Ipswich 2 points behind. 10 points clear of 3rd. 

 

We won 19 out of 23 in the first half of the season under Enzo...

Southampton forum is very similar to ours. A lot want Still out but a lot feel the problems are a lot deeper than the manager. 

 

Ipswich as you suggest fans mainly feel the club is going through a transition and it will take time. 

 

Currently looks like it will be a season where there wont be any of the relegated teams  promoted for a change.

Very strong boycott last night by Sheffield Wednesday supporters.

Why? They've finished below us for god knows how many seasons on the trot, why is it surprising that they are still below us? Neither have done anything to warrant overtaking us even with our horrendous downfall as a club.

Both tipped to go straight back up,  Ipswich especially have a solid manager and some great coaches and kept hold of some great players too, both has brought in decent players and kept hold of players that got them promoted two years ago. 

 

I would say Ipswich have done a lot more than us by actually have an experienced manager and decent backing from their board. 

 

That enough for you for me to have an opinion or would you like some more ?

That’s because most of our fans are too busy defending Top for saving us from administration and getting us promoted from League 2 (direct words from KPFC cult members not me)!

It's about time. They've been terrible for ages without protest. They've been charged silly money for years without protest.

 

Good to see them actively protesting now but it's a bit late (although better than never).

Refreshing for the league if depressing for us.

 

On Soton the few of their fans who were still in the ground at the end of the game Tuesday night were giving Still and his players dogs abuse. No clapping them off like our fans probably would have done!

 

He seems to have drunk the Russell Martin possession is all important Kool Aid as well. God they were dull to watch.

It also is different set of circumstances than at our place.

Jesus this board really is the pits nowadays. I gave a differing opinion to you. On a forum.

Ipswich are the most surprising out of every team I think and it's interesting to see if McKenna can turn it around. Back to promotions is always an unbelievable achievement but the second promotion sort of rides of the first promotion. He is now experiencing defeats/loss of form which is always the most testing of a manager.

 

But lets not forget they did concede a lot when they got promoted previously, and often outscored opposition.
