2 early kickoffs in the promotion hunt, we face a tricky away game at the home of Select Car Leasing, whereas Wrexham will presumably frolic to a routine grindy win v Burton. I can see wins for most of the top 8 if I'm honest, though Reading and ourselves have a fair chance of cancelling each...

the "handball" wasn't one, I don't think, but the lunge from behind was fucking dodge. And yeah, we do have a shit run-in, as I've said on here before I can see us even falling further into the playoff places in favour of Charlton, we're out of form at exactly the wrong time. I'd give us at...

and Ryan Loft hitting the woodwork, sounds like it's got everything

I think 50 is the general magic number but I feel like 47 would probably see you safe this season, obviously it will depend on how much of a fight Crawley/Burton put in for the next few weeks.

Nah, no such thing. Would imagine your boys will be champing at the bit still to impress the new gaffer (if they’re not then fair dos, you really are fucked). Plus WW old boys Gape and Wheeler will no doubt be itching to show their best v former teammates (I know Blackman and Pierre are ex WW...

I note that the Shrewsbury Town takeover deal has apparently fallen through, again perhaps showing indicators as one of the reasons behind Ainsworth’s sudden flight. Hope they manage to sort something else out and secure the long-term future of the club.

On the Rotherham forum many seem amenable to that but the ITKs are claiming secret reasons that mean it’ll never happen.

Surely at this point Rotherham can only be capable of re-appointing former managers - Paul Warne, your time is now.

I doubt it, but the Gas do have a bitch of a run-in.

Well the number of posters sticking on here despite the recent tech cockups has definitely tailed off, but let’s keep going for now. What with recent managerial shenanigans, we get denied Ainsworth’s return to Adams Park, which is a bit of a shame but hey ho. Still a vital game (as are they...

Yeah, seriously, wtf happened? For us it seems like Mike Dodds’ true colours are along the lines of a cagey lower league Southgate, trying to bore the opposition into submission. Occasionally the attacking players have some fun but we’re generally lacking in the incisive final ball, I think...

Appleton gets the Shrews job. Not that convinced by that one myself, he did well at Oxford I guess, but less impressive elsewhere. I guess he’s got a free hit in terms of it being an unrealistic ask to keep them up, but it remains to be seen what he can bring to the table long term - still...

if Ainsworth hasnt changed house, he still lives somewhere in Berkshire I think, so that’s an hour less on his commute I guess (not sure about Dobson). Who knows what the real reasons were but I saw the open letter from the chairman saying that the Shrews takeover was still on, so that can be...

Shrews fans speculating that this means their takeover (and pumping in more resources) isn’t happening. Ainsworth is certainly used to working under a demanding Yank sugar daddy (as he did with us) and I would back him to do well if he is given a chance to shape the squad the way he wants...

Ainsworth leaving Shrews to go to Gillingham apparently - speculation on the Shrews board is that this may be due to the takeover of the club not happening.
