Holy thread resurrection! I wonder where McAllister fits into the plans after the close of the transfer window? I think we all had high hopes for him if he ever got fit. Not sure now with all the recent signings.

Anybody know how many season tickets have been sold as of today / last published figure?

Unfortunately I was busy doing other things today so I didn't get chance to see the game. But why do we need to boo Butterfield? I can understand his frustration and want to play football. Put yourself in his position. If you thought you weren't going to play would you want to just sit on the bench? Probably not. There is a reason we paid the money we did for him. He was highly thought of at Huddersfield and if I recall he was their player of the year. So he obviously has ability. His style of football didn't suit the rowett style of play. However, I think Butterfield is a similar player to Frank Lampard. So I can see him being the player we know he can be in a Frank Lampard team. So let's get behind him so he can get his confidence back and be the player we need him to be.

Passions are obviously running high at the moment. And I'm BITTERLY disappointed after last night, but I'm pragmatic enough to say that Fulham were the better side. I think they will get promoted and actually have a decent season next season in the Premier. I'm also kind of disappointed in myself for allowing me to get my hopes up again for them to be dashed near the finishing post. But that's football. We need to stop the revolving door policy we have with managers of recent years. Gary has had one summer and one winter transfer window. He needs the same again, and then come March 2019, if we are languishing, then we can say he's had a fair crack of the whip to get it right. I'm sure Gary has learned a lot of lessons this season about his squad and tactics. I don't think he's blind to the faults of some of the players in the squad and I think he will address those problem areas. So let's settle down, stop the rash, panic and passion fuelled decisions and let Mel and Gary prepare us for next season.
