Director resignations ( including Karen Brady), high player wages, not owning their stadium and can’t do anything to improve it, high turnover in managers, an owner who wants to sell up and not invest anymore into the club etc. if they get relegated, they are going to need a huge restructure and millions to be spent to get them back up.
To think we were in a similar situation to this a short while ago.
At the start of the season, the majority of us would have given anything to be in the position we find ourselves in now.
Moyes has done excellently since he took over.
Will be delighted if we finish in the top ten.
People may well question his methods and tactics but you will probably find that the majority of supporters aren’t fully happy with the way their team is playing and the tactics employed. That’s life.
Onwards and upwards next season.

Lots to ponder but fundamentally for me is that we have stabilised and there has been progress.
The past 3 years of doom and gloom, Dycheball and huge debts have been replaced by TFG, HDS and some decent players.
Moyes, marmite to some, has reunited the team spirit that Dyche destroyed and reinvigorated positivity. Whilst not the answer for the future he is there to ensure that we are moving forward.
He knows our DNA and albeit cautious at times he is a safe pair of hands at a time when we really needed that. The players speak highly of him and hopefully he eventually moves upstairs in a consultancy role.
We now have a base to build on and we all know what is required and this simply must start to happen in the next window with fullbacks and a No 9 absolute priorities. TFG must deliver this to show real intent.
I am personally happy that we have moved up the table albeit some results (good and bad) have surprised me. We will have new stadium blues behind us next season and can kick on. I am genuinely not bothered about Europe, I believe it is too soon and it would wreck our PL campaign.
There is some deadwood that needs offloading and replaced by better players, I am sure that this in in hand. It will be interesting if we retain Grealish and I hope we can keep George who looks a real player when given the chance.
Two games left, 6 points to play for and I expect 4. Never thought I would say that this season but both games are winnable. I would like to see Rohl in his natural position perhaps with Charly and play Jimmy RB to accommodate?
