Been a fan for a long time, dad took me to games in the early 70's.
First post and bit a bit p1ssed after trying to drown the sorrows from today.
This season has been the worst I have ever experienced due to the lack of fight the team has shown. It was emabarrasing to see us ripped apart by a fellow struggler at the start of the second half, I cannot believe that none of the older professionals within the team did not influence what was going on around them.
I have my doubts about the whole set up in the club and along with many people here I think that we need to clear out the back room staff, including those who deal with injured players.
I think Russell Slade may be the right man for next season but he needs his own staff plus Nicky Forster, whether that be as a Player/Coach or a stong influence on the training pitch and dessing room.
We need to change the squad and I would let the following go, Kuipers, Hawkins, Hinch, Mayo, Lynch, El Abd, Birchall, Jarrett, Carole, Fraser, Cox, Mcleod, Hart and Dixon.
If we keep Whing, Elphick, Virgo, McNulty (if fit), Murrary, Forster and Davies we have the defence and attack sorted - we need a whole new midfield. If we get this right I believe that we will get promotion from div 4 in the first season and we will get bigger attendances than this year.
This is a special football club to me, i don't care about Premiership or Champions League - I care about the Albion. I really believe we are on the verge of great things, the stadium will be the kick start to getting the club to where its has potential, a strong Championship, weak Premiership team. Hull were in the doldrums like us, so were Wigan, Middlesborough, Fulham, Bolton, Stoke, Portsmouth, Blackburn and West Brom.
We will probably go down this season but lets go kicking and screaming and lets have a team to really get behind next season and build for the future.

. Can only disagree with one word of your summary , and the word is Cox. He has done enough to show us what he is capable of, particularly since Slade gave him his confidence back. Excellent first half yesterday just needs to be on the ball otherwise he just drifts out of games
