For a team that is languishing at the bottom of the league, that stat alone should show, to those amongst us that are still having doubts, that we can look forward with optimism and hope for better things for next season under PL. Just a pity we couldn't turn a couple of those 1-1 draws into victories, but it's a game of small margins and hand on heart we haven't been good enough to capitalise, but there's plenty to work with in going forwards.

They are full of racists, Grimmers. They've been flirting with Tommy Robinson ffs. There are plenty of other parties outside the big two that aren't full of racists. Sort it out, pal. | |

Well if Tommy Robinson was a candidate he wouldn’t get my vote that’s for sure.
Is the Brexit party going to stand in by elections or even the general? | | | |

UKIP employed Tommy Robinson as an adviser recently. That's the party you're supporting, Grimmers. You're better than that. | |

You have the right to support and vote for who you like but the fact they are a political party does not mean they are not racist. There are racist policies and MPs in several of the political parties. Indeed, there are accusations of racism against most, if not all, of the parties. I would suggest UKIP are far more racist than any other. |  |

Think you’ll find it is. I’d be really surprised if any team in the bottom 3 of the top 4 divisions has a record like that. For a team like us that are a distant 24th to only suffer 2 defeats over that period and amount of games, shows things are happening, slowly but things are happening. | |

My point are those teams are now out of the bottom 3.
Our record all over this season is woeful.
One look in our league shows rotherham have 12 points in 9 games compaired to our 9. Happy, cause I'm not??? [Post edited 6 Apr 2019 19:01]

Yes and that's why we are bottom of the league and I agree with your point there, but for those moaning that it's all 'doom and gloom' there is still some hope on the horizon for our future in League One. Recently, we have played better and have been unfortunate in games, but have lacked the quality to capitalise, but with what PL has had at his disposal there does seem to be an element of consistency occurring and for a team that has been so well adrift of its competitors this season, that's impressive. If we'd been able to convert some of those chances in the games we've drawn that record would look even better. We wouldn't be able to escape relegation as we simply haven't been good enough over the whole season, but there's things that indicate to me plenty to be optimistic about. It's looking at the bigger picture and not the immediate one, the damage had been done much earlier!

Apples and pears mate. We are no better than Bolton result wise.
Get some of your points, but I just cant get excited for league one next season, look at how hard some relegated sides have found the challenge. | | | |

Let’s not make excuses, we didn’t win these games because the squad isn’t good enough. But,it’s promising that PL got them playing and cutout the loses. | | | |

Genuinely, I don't think any of us are happy or excited about the prospect of next season, but for all those teams that got relegated from the Championship and struggled there are also those teams that have comeback even stronger and thrived, even in the Premier League. Why can't that be us? | |

So we’re the same as an awful Bolton side and worse than Rotherham...
Over those 9 games we’re 18th in the form table - it’s an improvement but only 2 points better than the team in 22nd still
Nice win today but far too little too late, unfortunately |  |

The relegated teams are 2nd, 3rd & 10th. So none of them have struggled. | |

And last season all three relegated sides came back up. The gap between the Championship and League 1 is growing, any side going down from this league should be promotion contenders the following year. | |

You’re solely looking at the points based on survival. I’m looking at this at a team that has been largely adrift of their rivals all season, with an inferior squad of players and have only lost 2 games in these sequence of games. Also, this is from a team whose destiny is more or less confirmed in League One, but now provening more difficult to beat. Yes, too little too late but they could’ve just capitulated and had a run of form like Fulham until the end of the season and that’s why it’s encouraging heading in to next season.

Having watched a lot of us, and our rivals etc. I don't think it's clear cut at all.
There's been a lot of spin for and from certain sections of the fans. I want Lambert to succeed, I want him to be in 5 years time etc. Yesterday laid bare a lot of stuff though. We have a squad that totally deserves to go down, we have been one of the poorest sides I've seen in nearly two decades at this level, because we've not been a team all season.
To be down there with the Yeovils, Burtons, Rotherhams et al. of this world is degrading and Evans is to blame.
We might have a lot of kids who are talented and capable and we might have a really good season in league 1 terms and even win the thing, but even that isn't good enough I'm afraid.
We're in a mess, and in all likelihood those that were out there next season won't all be here, the depth of the squad will change dramatically and the whole nature of the club with it as we spend every month out of the second tier.
It'd be nice to think that our under 23's side is essentially going to graduate all at once, but League 1 won't give a fcuk about that. If anything they'll be relishing getting in Downes' ear, snapping at Dozzell or Bishop, and pushing Kenlock etc. We are going to be a club with a target on our backs every week.
I've seen nothing to suggest we're ready for that challenge at all. Mainly because there is so much left to happen before the opening game of next season. Lambert is going to have a lot to do, I only hope he's allowed to start the project now. |  |

I wouldn't say our squad of players is clearly inferior to the likes of Bolton, Rotherham, Reading, Wigan and Millwall. I think that's a bit of a cop out to be honest. | |

Certainly agree with a lot of your sentiments Mullet and the prospect of next season doesn't get me all excited either, but the situation is what it is and the blame does lie firmly at ME's door. However, sometimes taking a step back to take a few steps forwards in making us stronger can be a good thing and I very much believe this will be the case for us. I really don't think it'll take much for us to be very competitive next season, a couple of shrewd signings especially a goalscorer who converts chances is key. Just feel it is that ideal opportunity to reassess and rebuild the club properly from the foundation up because in recent seasons we have just been treading water and papering over the cracks.
