    Oh yes ,,,,, Friday morning is always the start of the build up for me ,,, no roofing , just some paperwork then golf in the afternoon, relax in the evening and prep for early Saturday set off ( very early tomorrow) , nerves are kicking in now and just praying for Saturday to be a great day that stays in the memory with the rams back in the championship in front of a packed pride park raising the roof ,,, are we going to do it ? ,,,, I’m channeling my inner B4 💪🐏

    An alternative view could be he stayed as he knew the writing was on the wall and once MM’s takeover was confirmed he’d be sacked anyway.  That way, he guarantees himself a payoff rather than leaving for nothing.  Not saying that’s how it was, just a different perspective.

    Not a chance unfortunately. Too many are in entrenched positions. They’ll be sharpening their knives whatever happens.

    If we go up tomorrow then there’s a building job to be done , we are not going to be overflowing with cash relatively, warne may well be exactly what we need to get the spirit and togetherness we need to stay up and stabilise with a bit more than he had at Rotherham, 
    I for one am going to be right behind him and the team, we are coming back from the brink and we fans need to keep that fighting spirit

    I miss @B4ev6is, not sure he would have settled for 3rd or 4th place either 😂

    What!!!!!!
    Just settling for the play offs, a club of our size?
    Surely, it needs to be top 2 at the very least.😉
    After all, the championship will be the weakest it's ever been with the big clubs going up and replaced with traditional championship clubs. If Warne can't get is in the autos against that lot, he needs to go. 😉

    The Championship table is quite daunting.  An awful lot of teams with Premier League experience and cash. Plenty of big clubs with lofty ambitions.
    I'd take midtable, decent crowds, better football, stability and some younger players coming through.

    Oh I'm sure there's a few around these parts that will expect top 4, however unrealistic that is.

    I'd take mid table next season (in the Championship of course 😀).
    I'm not sure any of us have realistic expectations for top 4.

    If we are successful tomorrow Warne has to have credit as despite the number of managers we have had only 4 have achieved promotion in the last 40 years.
    If we do go up we will have to temper expectation as ,after watching the 2 games Leics v Southampton and Leeds vs Boro this week we are a long way off that standard and we certainly wont have a budget to compete.Mid table i think will be a success.

    Rush allowed Mac to bring in expensive loans like Bamford and Linguard - to add to a team built by Clough including Martin Russell . Hughes , Hendrick etc. Then as soon as Newcastle looked Mac’s way - he wet his nickers .

    Even if that is true, which I doubt, it'll be largely due to us having to rely on older & experienced freebies - on the higher wages that come with it. My point still stands that PW shouldn't be blamed for that.

    Perhaps the solution is for the club to announce should we win or draw Adams will sign a new contract, pre-contract or whatever after the final whistle as long as fans stay off pitch

    Right, obviously not everyone will be happy with whatever happens so here’s a compromise. Assuming we get whatever is needed to get us promoted, at the final  whistle the scoreboard clock is reset, the inevitable pitch invasion starts and you have 5 minutes exactly to get your instagram photos or whatever. Then a siren is sounded and the police dogs are unleashed to sort out anyone left on the pitch. Sorted.

    This is it for me. If we go up I will be overjoyed and I want to see the spontaneous final whistle celebrations of players and staff and who knows PW starting the bounce without them having to run off and celebrate in the tunnel/dressing room. If we go up and there is a pitch invasion we will have VAR subdued and delayed celebrations and perhaps nothing after. But we all know it will happen

    Of course I cannot vouch for anyone else and I'm not saying I'm right by the way. Just confessing to liking a pitch invasion and (perhaps naively) picture the day being like 1996 where there's the initial euphoria of fans celebrating on the pitch followed by a jubilent lap of honour.
    I'm probably getting too excited and I am more than likely in the wrong, just being honest on how I see things mate.

    That's just you though. Can you vouch for all the others running on the pitch? I don't think anyone would deny that we have our fair share of morons. All it could take is for one Carlisle player to react to being blocked from reaching the tunnel and react in a way you might not expect. 
    I agree with @Ian Buxton's Bat's comment that a pitch invasion, whilst it might give a few their moment of jumping around on the pitch, it might deprive the majority of enjoying the bounce started by PW and the players (and their families) lap of appreciation (unless the pitch can be cleared fairly quickly).

    I'm not a fan of pitch invasions - and I'm not being the fun police here, quite the opposite. As has been pointed out, it risks cancellation of laps of honour, presentations and a chance to actually see the players celebrate.
    I'd rather watch PW start the bounce with an ecstatic squad with him than watch 22 knackered footballers run for their life towards the tunnel.
    There is generally some numpty who assaults an opposing player - which is utterly cringeworthy.
    It's easy to fix. EFL says non-negotiable 20 point deduction for mass pitch invasions like they apply a non-negotiable deduction for going into admin - and they just wouldn't happen.
    I don't believe there is any realistic chance of a points deduction if there's a pitch invasion tomorrow but, if the EFL are genuinely concerned about player safety, they should bring in some rule for future seasons.

    The club are not asking... they are telling... don't do it.
    The law says... don't do it.
    "The best way to gain promotion is by the Play-Offs" is oft-written... do they invade the pitch at Wembley?
    Hysterically approaching a player who has yet to make himself safe by dashing down the tunnel, just to "Plant a big fat kiss" could (understandably) be misconstrued as a potential attack/assault.  Remember, there will be confusion, concern, and uncertainty from some quarters.
    All it takes... literally... is one jubilant fan being tripped/nudged/held back by a viz'd up official whose sole job/instruction is to attempt to fend off a pitch invasion for the mood to change.  Just one defensive/evasive swing of the arm can be caught on the numerous cameras, and have you stood in the dock before you can say "I wish I'd listened to Uncle Mucker"!
