      This season was all about survival, even the more positive fans amongst us realised that.
      I always had confidence in this squad particularly when the injury front eased up and Danny Fox strengthened what was a leaky defence.
      Cook speaks regularly about “fine margins” and there is no truer saying. The number of times we’ve looked comfortable in games and been done by an individual error or a bad deflection. This squad IMO was good enough to finish a comfortable mid table, the reasons we didn’t I’ve identified earlier.
      If we can keep hold of our key players and add a mixture of young blood and experience players in the mould of Danny Fox, Leon Clarke we can become a top half team and maybe push for the playoffs in the next 2-3 years.
      It will be hard finding another Reece James, but there will be other loan signings to come, especially the way our coaching staff have brought Robinson and James on.

        I was about to say the same thing, imagine if we needed Rotherham to lose their last game and their opponents fielded a weakened team.
        Its just not on, there will be opportunities during preseason to see how the young uns are progressing.
        Let’s go out in a blaze of glory with 2 more wins and a decent points tally.
        Brum and the Oatcakes are still catchable.

          Its got to he said, some supporters on here should bow their heads in shame when they look back at their posts this season.
          We all deserve an opinion but the pure vitriol directed at Paul Cook and the players at times has been ridiculous to say the least.
          Having been struck by injuries to literally the full forward line for most of the season and to throw away point after point due to individual errors, its been a hard season for the club. Despite that they have achieved their goal and retained championship status with points to spare. We have NEVER been in the bottom 3.
          So please let this be a lesson to some supporters you know who you are, by all means have a go when things are not going for us, but understand it just doesnt do any good coming on here with the hatred demonstrated by you at 5pm every time we lose.
          Paul Cook and his backroom staff are rookies at this level, with the injury situation on top, he has had a baptism of fire, but to his credit he has achieved his pre-season goal, with 2 games to spare.
          Let’s sit back and enjoy the last 2 games, have a relaxing break and come back fully charged to get behind our team, whoever is in charge or whoever is on the pitch.
          Well done Paul Cook, well done the players and well done to all those supporters who stuck behind the lads despite that horrendous away record.

          Utter bollocks, I like alot on here will moaned like fook when we play like tossers and the manager hasn’t a clue and putting up with players who didn’t give a flying fcuk about us.
          I will also praise them for getting 7 points out of 9 and keeping us up.
          Hang our heads in shame ?? pmsl. By the sounds of it happy tamazzy clapper you need to get down the training ground about 2ish and give Cook a soapy wet one then nosh the team off cause most won’t be here next season.[/quote]

            Some of the players and the manager will have learned a lot about themselves this season. The likes of Byrne, Massey, Morsey, Dunks and Windass hopefully will progress next season. We need a couple of old heads and 4-5 young uns like the two we are looking at from Barnsley. Give a couple of our Dev squad a taste of first team action to see if they can step up.
            Should make for an interesting campaign.

                  Thought you would know who you are, I mentioned no names but you have come on defending yourself.
                  I could have chosen to be more damning, but didn’t feel the need. No soap box pal just saying it as it is.
                  You have been a total disgrace to your club,there are opinions and shear contempt, you and a few others may I add, have over stepped the mark and if it had gone tits up you would have been on here again at 5pm giving it Loads.
                  Well it didn’t work out that way and you must be feeling pretty silly now.
                  A couple of positive posts when you couldn’t do anything but, doesn’t change what you have posted this season.
                  Try and grow up for next season and see the bigger picture.
                  Now that was me on my soap box.

                      We are talking about a player who is nominated for mom EVERY week. That’s the difference to those mentioned and many more great players we have had.
                      He’s played in every game, in various positions and doesn’t break sweat.
                      Which other player could play 95 mins, 76 min of them with 10 men and still have the energy to run the length of the field twice towards the end of the game, dribbling round players.
                      I know he was brought off at the end, but that was more a tactical move rather than him running out of steam.
                      Can’t praise the boy enough, should pick up every award at the end of the season from player of the year, young player of the year, supporters player of the year,away games player of the year, goal of the season, the lot!

                        Have had a better loan signing???
                        I can’t think of one

                        I would extend that to had a better player? certainly not had a better teenager.

                          Can’t see Chelsea letting him go just like Callum Hudson-Odoi and the lad who went Palace, he will be in their long term plans.
