The mistake was Warnocks behaviour. If he had just got on with his job instead of trying to get involved in other things, they wouldn't have had to make that decision. It was tough, as Warnock had instilled belief in the squad and fanbase. People also says KN doesn't know the English game - I agree - but Warnock also stated that 'this squad is good enough for the play offs'. People blame Kev for everything, but Warnocks antics off the field haven't helped. The rot had set in under the 2 previous regimes who invested nothing in the squad, relegation, if it should come to pass, is a culmination of previous inertia. Nagle and Edwards have probably been too complacent and misjudged the Warnock and Moore situations, ignoring or again, misjudging, the squad deficiencies. After that play off final, we should have kicked on. I wasn't a huge Carlos fan, but he did a very good job and should have been backed. Coming from that position and then appointing Schofield as permanent manager was a huge error. Since the final whistle at Wembley, it has been abysmal. To be honest, it has been abysmal since the 2nd PL season. Every decision seems to have been the wrong one.

As previously mentioned Warnock realise the limitations of the squad so put square pegs in square holes. For example. If you were a right back you played right back, even if you weren't a very good right back.

How long before he resigned again then, like he had done during that season? People say that Warnock had to go because he thought he was bigger than the club, what about Corberan?

If you were a right back you played right back, even if you weren't a very good right back. I think the point that you're making (i.e. that he put players in the positions that best suited their attributes within the team setup) is a good one. It's not correct, however, to simplify that into "if you were right back, you played right back, even if you weren't a very good right back" - not least because he played Pearson at right back when Matt Lowton was in the squad! The point is, however, that (1) he chose a team setup that played to the strengths of as many players as possible, and (2) he played Pearson at right back because Pearson was the best person to put at right back, having regard to how he wanted the right back to play as part of the team unit. It was symbiotic - the players dictated the type of style he needed to play, and the style dictated which players played where. That's the sign of a good manager - they not only put a square peg in a square hole, they also fashion that square hole in the first place.

Agree, only difference being the chairman. I can't say I know the reasons for Carlos handing in resignations, I would presume it was because of the lack of backing? Our stock after that final would have been high, we should have gone and got a name we deserved and not an unproven ex product of the club.

Despite some daft decisions my biggest positive from the season is Kevin Nagle. I’m convinced more than ever he’s here for the right reasons.
At the end of the day the owner and their vision is by far the most important person at a club and dictates the direction it goes in.
Even in League One the future looks brighter to me than it did under “Potless”

It ends soon. Some of the players are out of contract. Not many, and who's going to want to sign half the rest? Burgzorg (Loan) Matos (Loan) Edwards (Loan) Hogg Nakayama Diarra Bellagambi

It's been quicker to get home this season. With the M1 being an apology for a motorway & Highways England (probably - possibly someone else) deciding it was a good idea to put miles and miles and (f*****g) miles at 50mph for months and months and (f*****g) months rather than working intensely on a smaller area, it certainly hasn't been. Work complete Winter 2024 and then they move the problem further South (speed cameras already set up).

I was told that he was promised we’d sign Morris who then went to Luton and he took them up. I don’t blame him for going. Master polisher of turds was Carlos as he’s showing at West Brom.

Sorba Thomas has battled on gamely, more than most. He’s tried to get us on the front foot, tried to create something imo. As someone who’s had his issues previously I think he’s shown pride and professioanalism for the shirt even when there’s not been much of that from his teammates a lot of the time.
I would imagine he’d be one of the few who’d attract bids because he’s too good for league one.
However, he’d be the most important player to retain imo along with Helik and Rudoni.
With Healey & Rad on long term contracts and experienced pros Nicholls, Lees & Hogg we’d have a good spine for league one imo.

Truth is no player plays in Division 3 if they are wanted above.

There aren't really many positives from this season honestly.
Player wise, I'd say Helik has done alright, the emergence of Spencer and I'd also echo some sentiments re - Thomas. He's been trying hard, and dare I say, been showing a bit of terrier spirit - not saying he's the best winger going around today but I do like the effort he's been putting in.
Another positive was we were able to ship out a number of players on loan - High, Mahoney, Austerfield, Rowe, Simpson, Hudlin.
Away from the playing squad, a positive is seeing Nagle actually make some january signings and a bit of investment into the squad. I know the January signings haven't worked up, but to see him willingly spend some dough into the squad is a good sign.
I can't think of what else to put, but you know it's been a difficult season when you're mentioning loaning out players in regards positive of the season...

That’s exactly what I was saying about Thomas. Totally right about Nagel too. Hes been well and truly shafted by Edwards and Cartwright and their managerial choices. No way this squad should have gone down with the January spending.

Emergence of Brodie Spencer. Helik solid and with the goals. Sorba back playing well again.
We brought in a pacey, what seems a technically sound centre half, 2 strikers after years of asking for some. Just unfortunately, we haven't been able to see those 3 at all.

My work HQ is in Birmingham, two bastard routes, Manchester 62 to M6 is always a tail back or you do the M1 and sit for mile after mile fucking crawling. Countries ability to get things done in a timely manner truly is terrible.

Forest and Leeds ending the season in the Championship would be a positive.
In fact if we all ended up in the Championship i’d retire from football. A season that could never be topped.

The guy at the counter gave me two chicken balti pies, despite only paying for one, a couple of weeks ago.
So that was my moment of the season to be honest, never mind positive.

Stayed until the end on Saturday. Hardly anyone left and that and the small number of away fans made it easy to get over the bridge and onto St Andrews Road.

More of a plus for next season, but as a result of this season - the players out on loan should be more able to gain a place in the squad next year

The way this season' gone reminded me of an old song I used to like: Three Wheels on my Wagon:
We started with three wheels at the beginning of the season but they loosened and fell off one by one until, at the end of the Swansea game, it became;
No wheels on my wagon So we're not rolling along Things look bad I feel sad But I'm singing a happy song
"C'mon all you Terriers, sing along with AB!" Higgity, haggity hoggety, high Terriers, they never say die Higgity, haggity hoggety, high
We'll all watch Wednesday Go galloping by.
Apologies to all those who've never heard the song. And to those that have too.

Spencer.
The fact that the 'experts' stiĺl talk up Sorba.
A few will be closer to end of contracts and will be easier to move on or pay off.
Cartwright has been found out by Kev and will go.
There were not too many very cold/and or wet games.
