    I know there are funny selection rules for this competition but I’m not sure we’ll get away with starting 12 players….

    Aha the Holy Grail. Just bring someone in who can get the job done. Sounds simple when you put it like that but far from easy when applied to real life.

    We won’t, some players need more game time. Anyone that doesn’t play in this will go at least two weeks without a game.
    Also players can and do get injured in training.

    This is getting so tedious, especially as one man and his trusted advisers are the only people who matter here. Categorically, the business plan will not include funds set aside/ringfenced for sacking a manager. That doesn't mean they won't have considered that PW won't make it to the end of his contract but any cash needed to pay the 4 of them off will undoubtedly come out of the playing budget. 
    Generally clubs are not run like we used to be. We need to remember where MM and his scattergun approach to hiring and firing got us. Changing from 433 possession based with Mac to RealMadrid mk2 with Clement (spunking £10m in one day on BJ and Butterfingers), hard running, lots of effort with Pearson, back again to 433 with Mac v2, kick and rush with Rowett, 433 with Fat Frank, totalfootball with Cocu, Rosenior-ball under Rooney and now the patented League 1 no control but lots of crosses with PW.
    I am not saying Clowes will not pull the plug but a 4 year contract, being singleminded in who he wanted and being just outside the playoffs before Autumn is here tells me it isn't likely to be anytime soon. So the endless new threads by people wanting their 15 mins of DCFCFans glory finding new ways to criticise PW are very premature. IMHO. I expect Clowes will look at all the good things that have happened under PW rather than concentrate on the negative. 
    As others have said, the sense of entitlement in our fanbase is off the scale. Last week wasn't perfect but 5 points from 3 games is 76 points, as is 18 from 11, but with the positives of Nyambe, Nelson, Fornah, Wilson plus Bird, Hourihane fit to play, solid back 5, with Ward back soon. 
    Having said all that, if football owners can sack Eustace with their team in 6th, then anything can happen. But I trust Mr Clowes with my club much more than that.

    I suspect he already has regular conversations with Warne. As for his patience, I suspect he has more than most of us on this forum and won’t be going into meltdown if we don’t go up this year or even end the season where we are now - 8th.

    As you say yourself, the club is being run professionally (from what we can see) and therefore I can’t see why DC will be running out of patience quite yet when we are sitting 8th (albeit a disappointing 8th) and we’re nowhere near writing the season off as one we can describe as “nearly being promoted” stage yet. Nearly being promoted this season may well be an option for DC even if not for us.

    We’re top in League 1 for goals scored away from home. Notts County are only 15th best in league 2 for least goals conceded at home and 16th for overall goals conceded. You pick your stats and take your choice. 🤷🏻

    It's merely a post to highlight the utter madness that goes on in Football not me advocating anything other.
    Eustace has turned that club around and has them 6th.  They sack him to replace him with Rooney who as much as I love, I don't wish any success on Birmingham after their last visit to us and some of the chants they came with.

    If the multi-million pound layout had been on players then we'd all expect more. It hasn't been though and, to be fair to Warne and the recruitment team, if the players we sign in the future are as decent as Nelson, Nyambe and Fornah - all acquired for nowt - then we'll be promoted this season or next.
