AGM fairly dull

Questions for Hughton about being too defensive, late substitutions, how we have looked better in games where we have gone forward more, why he hasn't played Hooper and RvW together.

Someone asked if the board was worried about relegation given our points haul over the last year. Bowkett said he was sure we would finish top 10 (or something like that).

McNally said he was sure would be happily in midtable mediocrity by the end of the season. He then went onto rather grumpily say that football isn't played over a calendar year, we finished where we deserved last season and he is sick of hearing that West Brom and Man City were on there holidays and that there were games he went to (e.g Sunderland) where we got less than we deserved. Didn't sound like a man about to sack the manager, but guess that may change quickly if we lose on saturday and over the next few weeks.
