Plus (from the other thread), we've still got the following players contracted for next year:

Wright
Clay
Vigouroux
Angol
Widdowson
Wilkinson
Dennis
JMD
Dayton (possibly)

That list looks expensive to me already.

Dayton contract was for 1 year so it will expire 30/6 and there is no way he deserves another one based on his performances this year, or lack of.

I agree we are a mid table side.

But we shouldn’t be.

Why shouldn’t we be ?

As the squad is capable of so much more and with a top manager we’d have been top 3 without a shadow of doubt.

Very respectfully disagree mate. It was always gonna be a difficult season after the tragic events of last summer and I don’t think the squad we have right now is good enough for much more than a mid-table finish

Yes they should have been blasted, but it all seems much too pally to me. Can you really see Embleton blasting anyone?

From all accounts, after a bad first half, Fergie could be rather prone to throwing the tea cups around, Ross in contrast, could well imagine busying himself by making the tea !

Says it all about our creativity this season, and not for the first time. Macclesfield had more shots on target (4-2) than us. Playing away as well..
