My 18 year old, after going to cast his vote for the first time: that was underwhelming - they could at least have given me biscuits or something! > There you go Parliamentarians, thatβs how to engage the young in politicsπ

Perhaps it would be for the best if we were to spend a little spell in League 1. Far too much to do to build a competitive squad for the Championship. Another season of struggle awaits under the leadership of John squared

Lost count of the number of times the opposition have had a quick breakaway leading to a tap in at the back post this season . Meanwhile, every time time we pass up the chance of a quick counter to slow play down to ultimately bass pack to the keeper. Ever likely weβre deep in the mireπ€

There is one message for the government on this anniversary of the Hillsborough Disaster
No watering down, no ifs or buts, no more delays. It is time to deliver a Hillsborough Law in full in the name of 97 football fans who were unlawfully killed

Been thinking a lot about the club crest supporters consultation. I think Iβm going to propose a name change to Serco City as weβre run by accountants seemingly intent on employing players on short term contracts. And they wonder why thereβs no pride in wearing the shirt?π€·ββοΈ

Well done John Walters! Tippetty-top football administration. You were so right about being in a rush to get us out of this division! League 1 Champions 25/26. Just need to sign some better players - how hard can it be?π

I think thatβs unfair on him mate as Swansea put a second man on him 2nd half so he was defending the space rather than going man to man. Agreed he was very good offensively though

I sacrificed my Boxing Day by travelling up from Buckinghamshire so I could be at game last night. Would be great if the boss could let us know in future if heβs gonna wave the white flag before a ball is kicked. Horrible, cowardly line up by a man getting slowly sucked down the plug-hole.

I was firmly in the patience camp but not now. That line up and performance was tantamount to waving the white flag. Got to be braver as we simply canβt defend for toffee. Get rid tonight!
