Clearly were in yesterday because there are training photos so just means Thursday is the rest day

I'm sure he said in his interview something like those who had little or no involvement were in (on Wednesday) and that Thursday was a recovery day. Maybe why the press conference has been on a Wednesday last 2 weeks.

Just said the same on the Academy thread.

Bit surprising there's no work on Wednesday, surely they dont need two recovery days?
 
Alexander is right not to keep changing systems because the players aren’t bright enough to be tactically flexible

But at some point if results persist he’ll have to try a back 4. Fully fit, a 4231 doesn’t look terrible. And ironically might make us more organised than the 5 because we’d have a back 4 playing in a conventional system with wingers supporting their fullbacks and two defensive midfielders. Might stop us shipping all the goals as a result of wingers getting into the space between our CB and wingback (Millwall, two of Brums, one of Bristols, one of QPRs).

Yeah, let's spread the sub 10k crowd around 4 stands and make it look even worse, and likely have a negative effect on an already poor atmosphere.
It's fine for games where home attendance is good, but absolutely pointless for our likely crowds in L1.

If we get relegated to league 1 (there's a long way to go yet),
the likelihood is that we will be winning quite a few games, so the crowds will be up around 15/16 thousand mark.

That’s a little optimistic considering the relative lack of away support and the evidence from our play off seasons the last time we were down there.

Nope. Firstly, there's no guarantees we'll be successful at all. Secondly, our crowds dropped below 10k regularly in league one and only came back when we were actually being properly successful. We only got 15k (including away fans) for the play off semi final against Chesterfield!

I agree with you but will caveat that by saying last time we were in League One our cheapest season ticket was £400 and it was £475 in the IPS. I still think we’d sell 10-12k season tickets at the current prices, even in L1
