    I have a question to ask. Now NW knows he will not be supported in his effort to stabilize the club does anyone think he may leave due to suspected bad health. Possibly COVID has taken a heavy toll on my health and ability and regretfully with a heavy heart I leave a project unfinished. SG is a lovely man with a difficult job during exceptional uncertainty. 
    SG. We wish NW well and thank him for his dedication and sincerity. 

    I feel for the guy because I think NW is a genuine person with real intent but man he must be shattered watching what has transpired over the past month. 

    NW has little to prove and if he feels it's beyond him then I think he'll jack it sooner rather than later. As you say, he's had Covid very recently and now knows he has very little to work with as far as squad goes. I certainly wouldn't blame him for wanting to retire and have a quiet life. There's a massive difference in being flown in to keep a team from relegation a few weeks before the end of the season to planning a long term promotion push.

    Appointing Woodgate was a big mistake but allowing him to stay in charge over the COVID pandemic shutdown and then sacking him after 1 match back is absolutely criminal. 

    Have to say that this was extremely baffling! Get Warnock in March and give him time to get to know players etc.

    If the players suddenly improve, it could simply be that they are being coached more effectively rather than that they weren't bothering before. 

    Its really doubtful that they're going to get any worse, surely?

    It's Boris Johnson, I mean we've actually voted this guy in to make decisions about things like this ( when I see we, I mean the country, I sure as hell didn't vote him in). As long as we keep washing our hands then everything will be fine.

    extra info

    Sure someone has pointed out that tomorrow is a massive day, Stoke and Wigan win and we lose then we're 4 points adrift which puts even more pressure on us.

    Our goal difference is starting to cause concern too with the teams around and above us.

    The only thing that frustrates me with the Pears/Grabban situation is the inconsistency of reffing. With the way things have been going in recent years and the extra protection goalies seem to be getting I'm convinced that would be called a foul 9 times out of 10. How often do we see fouls given for players breathing on goalkeepers? Yet a player actively backing into and blocking off a goalie is suddenly okay?

    I mean, I'm fine if it is, I just hope it is in every other game as well.

    Although it doesn't happen if any of the 3 players just standing around watching do literally anything including McNair who stands and watches it dribble in.

    I agree, anywhere in Europe you're guaranteed the ref blows for a foul but you have to say that Grabban just stood strong and got his goal.
