Shrewsbury, Burton and Cambridge were dreadful last year and the 7 of us probably all deserved to go down. They’ve circled the sinkhole for a while now so probably inevitable they go this year.
League 1 will eventually empty out of the teams with no major investment won't it ?


Burton have billionaires in charge now though , I wonder if their recruitment has just gone really badly wrong there .

Their fans not think they're making the play offs now then? :lol:

We did warn them.
The lad on the forum probably still thinks so, got to admire his optimism!

Losing to them twice both times when dreadful was pretty much what did us, although giving 13 points out of 18 to our fellow relegation sides didn't help either.

How Burton stayed up is beyond me, they even let Ryan Loft score a winner past them! They've had some big investment and got excited about beating us in a friendly (after we'd had a double training session in the morning :lol: ) and don't think they've won yet have they?

Think them three and Crawley who have had their promotion side and staff taken apart will do. Its a difficult level that but those three can't really complain when they've been struggling for the past 2-3 seasons mostly.

It was such an avoidable relegation and needless from us.

Its tough up there now compared in my view to the past, we went up and first season sat 9th going into January but then Ipswich throw 2-3 million quid around and you realise its a huge ask to compete at the top end, look at this season, its even worse with Birmingham.

The bottom 8-9 are meh, and you've got clubs like Exeter and Lincoln competing well on modest budgets but one bad window and your likely toast.

Best of luck to the lad and fantastic he has felt he can open about it to both his employers and allow them to inform the supporters who in turn I am sure will back him and hopefully encourage any supporters struggling to seek help if needed in their own right.
