I agree with that, good post. I'm keeping mine though for a simple reason.

The club, essentially, told me what i'd pay for league 1 football when i renewed.
I considered that to be a fair price.
Therefore, that's what i intend to pay.

Fair play to foulger (though I do wonder how it would have worked if he'd just put the million in, then asked the fans to do what they could to match it) I don't think the price i've paid is reasonable to watch us struggle agaisnt the likes of Yeovil.

I do think we'll do well to trouble the play offs next season too.
Its not necessarily a Gunn thing.
Look at the squad, we clearly need to bring in 8 or 9 players in all honesty.
He's got a limited budget which means he can afford very very few mistakes with signings.
ALL managers get the occasional signing wrong, the better ones less often.
I think there are managers we could have got that would be likely to get less wrong than Gunn, but I'm happy to accept some of his won't work out.
For that reason, his job is SO massive this summer, i can't for the life of me see him building a promotion squad in one summer.
Won't happen.
Top 10, stop the rot, steady the ship, get us back together and push on next (next) season (the season coming in August is now THIS season).
