...or he might have genuinely thought Morrison, Cuthbert and LJF could have stepped up.
Its been mentioned before but I still think the waiting till October to talk about contracts is wrong. I'm not saying they should all be done a certain time, but wouldnt we feeling slightly better now if the likes of Cuthbert and Douglas had been offered (...and signed) contract extensions back in July off the back of Wembley?
We've waited the teams been shite, we're going down and neither will be here next season and both will walk for practically nothing.
Infact I'll be surprised if any of the team that got to Wembley are here next season.

i'm convinced the lad who couldn't get a game last year was seen as the replacement for greer(morrison).
dont think wilson believed he was,but i am sure fitton did.
then flogging morrison is about the only good bit of business the club has done this season.we'd be going down if he was still in the team and probably would struggle to sell him now.
i'm not a believer of this fitton only likes younguns to later sell on either(never have been)

Back in the summer, the signings of Prutton, Caddis, Ferry, Sheehan and even Dossevi were seen as brilliant acquisitions. Not replacing Paynter and selling your captain, leader, talker, organiser etc. to a rival before the season starts and not replacing him has been our downfall. I know its a broken record but if Greer wasn't sold or was adequetly replaced this season would have turned out differently.

How can a young inexperienced player who was largley on the bench for us last season come in and replace our captain?? Monumental error.

Because Greer and Cuthbert were outstanding at that point.....he had no chance of getting in the team.

ljf was preferred too.even when morrison returned from his laon he hardly featured.
fitton rated morrison,not so much wilson i think.

This season has been one big cock up from start to finish.
It started after Leeds away-when Paynter was tapped up by Bates not because he wanted to sign him especially- but because he wanted to derail our season(we were 2nd at the time)- he succeeded.
Since the summer losing the likes of Paynter, Austin, Greer, Morrison, Ward, Darby we have not adequately replaced them-this is what has contributed to our likely relegation.
When we go down- i fully expect Fitton to come out and publicly apologise to the fanbase(As Delia did at norwich to her credit) and tell us what his plans our 2 achieve the two successive promotions that will be needed to achieve his 5 year plan. He said if we were not in the championship after 5 full seasons(this is season 3) he would have failed.
Fans will want assurances of the team/plans before parting with season ticket money and who can blame them. Our average gate this year (8651) is the 5th highest in league 1- shows the support is there.
Most importantly i want to be assured that loessons have been learned from the serious mistakes of the last year or so.

Agree with Bart.
Never felt so flat about the next seasons prospects. You may think its harsh, but the thought of Hart and 4-5-1 next year fills me with dread.

Well the Hart appointment hasn't really worked,done a decent job with the defence and lets be honest his options up front have been very limited...for me it is time a proper appointment is made now.
The new man will have a few matches and full pre season to sort things.
My feeling is it will be Hart who gets the nod....if so give whoever it is now to get on with the rebuilding.
