Football as many of us know it or remember it, is finished.

Who honestly believes we will anything of note ever again? I certainly do not. We will get promoted again at some point, possibly even next year, but we’d come straight down again, blame the coach and repeat.
For a club such as ours it’s a closed shop, as those up the road have found out.
As for JHT, he was appointed to put in place a new philosophy and both him and Knapper said it would take time. That philosophy is clear, possession based football that bloods youngsters to sell on.
We can have a moan, it’s what all football fans do. Jeez some moaned when we were in the Prem with Farke and wanted him gone, look how that turned out!
If there was a closer lower league side I’d probably flit between the two. #modernfootballisrubbish
