I’m not sure how calling this fixture a Championship one next season can be deemed negative. 
We are going up. 

It will be interesting to see what Warne has to work with this summer. I don’t think many are naive enough to think our current set will do any more than struggle. 
We have conceded a lot of goals against the better teams in League One, especially away from home. I think that is now 11 in the 5 games at Pompey, Bolton, Barnsley, Posh and Stevenage.
Is that down to Warne or what is at his disposal?
The gulf between Barnsley and Bristol City is pretty big, let alone Barnsley and Southampton.
If we’re going to struggle, I think it’s far easier getting on board if we play a better brand of football. 
But would better players result in Warne’s football being easier on the eye? I personally don’t see it but if he proves me wrong I’ll hold my hands up.
 

Where else should I post? There are enough spam threads about.
My opinion on Warne isn’t even that drastic. I’ve seen far worse on here.
I apologise for having higher expectations and wanting to play a better brand of football.
When you look at Plymouth and Sheff Wed struggling up there, it doesn’t bode well playing like this at League One level.

This will be a relegation six-pointer next season in the Championship.

Why? I think my points are valid. I’m confident we’ll get promoted and have been for a while.
I’m confident we would struggle with Warne as manager in the Championship.
Surely I’m allowed an opinion 🤷‍♂️

This will be a relegation six-pointer next season in the Championship.

Now that we are promoted, I hope Clowes is searching for our next manager this summer to give us a chance of progression in the Championship.
I’d be looking at Mowbray’s situation once he recovers.

You flatter me 😘

Man City and Arsenal are so methodological, that when they play each other it turns into a standstill.
The game at the Emirates was crap and only settled by a last-minute deflection, this game is worse.
Liverpool are a much better watch in the big games as they are more chaotic.
 
 

This has 1-0 Derby, a goal from a set-piece written all over it.
Blackpool look tiny.

They were group games.
What teams have we beaten in knockout football where you can genuinely call them a genuine contender? 
Ecuador, Paraguay, Colombia and Senegal? Come on. England should be beating them if we consider ourselves a contender for the tournament.
On the contrary every time we come up against an Argentina, Portugal, Germany, Belgium, Italy, France or Brazil on foreign soil in a knockout game we have lost.
Croatia and Belgium have beaten more ‘contenders’ in the past two tournaments than we have in the past 15. Crazy.

Hardly. I only say that about Germany at 2020 because they failed to get out of their world cup 2018 and 2022 group. The past six years Germany have been about as good as England were between 2010-16. Crap.
England would have won Euro 2004 had Rooney not been injured and we beat Portugal on penalties. I’m sure of that.
It’s not even a hate thing. I thought we were the better side against France in 2022. I just want us to beat a big name and prove we are good enough to win a tournament.
Beating the likes of Ukraine, Sweden, Denmark, Senegal and Colombia is all good but it won’t win us tournaments.

On Ben Foster's pod cast, The Cycling GK, he says that England have won 6 of the last 27 games against teams ranked in the top 10, I haven't fact checked it, but if true that is a pretty poor record, and backs what @Bris Vegas is saying, we need a win against one of the better nations to give everyone (fans and players) the belief that we can win against these teams, and we deserve to be considered a feared top nation, instead of a flat track bully. Foster and Darren Bent also say the same in the same podcast.

This is a standard Warne performance. Not sure why many are surprised or throwing their toys out the pram.
We play like this every week.
The only difference today is we have missed the two good chances and they have taken theirs.
So instead of 0-2, it’s 1-0.
We’re not playing any worse than we did against Cheltenham, Stevenage, Charlton, Exeter or Bolton over the past month.

Actually great play by Bradley. Suspends himself for the next 3 games. Our chances of promotion has just increased a little.
