Its sad mate but whether I watched live or Soccer Saturday I was worked up and miserable and angry when we lost......but now have no feelings.

Still want us to win and be succesful......but it is soul destroying to watch us at the moment.

Heisy, do you think we should let them beat us at our place? It would give them 11 points to at least match Derby.

Nope....

We need 14 more points and there's 3 of them right there!

I agree about the young players. Fact is the squad as currently put out isn't going to get us anywhere. What we need for the rest of the season it to start building a squad for the future. I don't mean throw everybody in at once. But everything should go towards building that new team.

I think the squad needs to be divided into three (in our minds, if not in fact):

a) those who we really want to keep because they give us enough and represent (hopefully) our future.

b) those who we might not be over the moon about but are worth keeping to bolster the squad (and because there are limits to how many players we can or should get in)

c) those who don't do it for us, for one reason or another, who we need to replace asap.

The first group we need to (possibly will be lots of these), and then divide the rest into your 3 groups.

Not enough

Don't know the story behind Senderos because he's looked solid before his injury, but he obviously has no future. I'd go with that list; I reckon getting a good defensive midfielder instead of Sanchez is one priority, and a proper striker to replace Gestede is the other. Plus I don't want Richards near central defence so he might be in (b) or (c).

I meant to say: draw a line through those players who don't want to stay before we allocate what's left into your 3 groups McP. Must have been under the influence.
