24/25 draft excuse list: - It takes time to rebuild a team. - It takes time for new players to gel. - Our top transfer targets signed for clubs from higher divisions, we should not expect to compete. - The Council are to blame for dragging their feet over the "training complex". - The manager was absent for crucial periods through summer recruitment and preparation due to his surgery, he deserves a full unhindered pre-season. - Unspecified players from 23/24 still under contract have refused to depart and are poisoning the dressing room. - The dog ate the tactics sheet and recruitment shortlist. Am I missing anything? You’ve forgotten Geography No physio No goalkeeping coach Recruitment team having to go out of their comfort zone ie Yorkshire Finding the right characters Players prepared to relocate. Very poor Piglet

Love the professional football experts on here or maybe I should say professional moaners. Give it a rest let's just wait and see how we start after the close season. Its a good job you weren't Man Utd fans when Ferguson was one game away from being sacked he weathered his bad spell and the rest is history. If we start next season badly then by all means you'll be quite right to call for change but until then pull your heads in and let's see a bit of positivity going into next season. Don't remember Ferguson taking Manchester United down, setting a new club record for losses in a single season. The point really is that they were close to firing him i.e. not accept poor results. What would Simpson have to have done to get fired this season that's just ended? He couldn't really have done any worse! He's very lucky to still be our manager and I hope he repays the faith that the owners have placed in him next season.

Am I missing anything? Ridiculous post. We don't have a tactics sheet. I should have added, but we do have sheet tactics.

No mention recently of the fans forum that was due to be held soon. About time Simmo was held to account, and an opportunity for him to finally apologise.

No it appears to have been very conveniently swept under the carpet. Watch out for a "oooops we forgot about that with all the changes going on and the Yanks have now gone home unfortunately" message coming very soon.
