    What chance does Melton have of getting Albion into the top half of the table this season? The only players, except Kevin,who got us to the play-offs leave, to be replaced by Oxfam buys, things are so bad that even the Welsh wind bag appears again. If the Manager was allowed to do what he's good at, cultivating youngsters, his time or his patience would run out. Either he'd be fired before the job was done or the Chairman would be selling 'em as soon as they showed promise.
    Time to transfer the Chairman?

      Blimey a balls not been kicked yet apart from the meaningless pre-season stuff and already you're righting us of! As for the players who have left, my feeling is they are the reason we didnt get promoted last year. Kamara should have scored 30 not 22, plus laid in another 10 for players in better positions. Also there were 3 games last year where we conceeded goals by player being able to run pass Kamara, and Kamara not tracking back. Komas had an aweful run during feb and march after being voted player of the month and didnt turn in a decent performance till April when it was clear we were only going to make the play-offs!
      Great business getting over 11mill for the two of them. We already have a replacement for Koumas in Koren. Saw enough of him last season to think he will be a real asset this season, two footed, can pass, reads the game and I think he will score some goals this year. As for replacing Kamara we should have enough strikers, Ellington (might just have a decent season if he wants to leave again in Jan), Beattie, Phillips will always get goals, plus the young kid we lent to bristol.
      So is there any chance you can get behind the team and at least give them a chance - otherwise you may as well go and follow the dingles!

      Oh and whatever you think, the chairman cannot be transfered!

        At last someone sticking up for the team,you are right about kamara should have got more goals than he did and if he wasnt so gready other players would have got more to, the amount of times he went for goal when other players had a lot easier chance to score was to numerous to count.Lets get behind the team and stop knocking them all the time,premiership he we come.

      I agree with that sentiment.....Peace should have gone instead of Megson,if that had happened I reckon we'd have been in the Prem next year and looking to go upwards!!
      The only thing Peace is interested in is the profits he's making for his company not THE BAGGIES that's for sure!!!
