Thread | Here's why McKenna might be thinking seriously about leaving

This is only a suggestion for debate, not a statement.
You have just achieved a miracle by getting a team of good League One players promoted to the Premiership. You know that you also got a bit lucky when Leeds, as usual, completely bottled it.
You are going to have to go through a major restructure of the squad, only two or three of whom stand much chance of becoming Premiership quality.
You have a CEO who has no experience of that role in the Premiership.
You are looking at a really tough season.
You feel that you have earned the right to at least talk to top half Premiership clubs who are not relegation candidates. |

Geo Watkins Mushroom Ketchup. Obviously different, being made from mushrooms, but definitely in the same ball game as Lea and Perrins. |

I lived there for a couple of years, a great city.
The yellow water buses would be an easy way to take a tour around the harbour, and better for the youngster than the commercial tours. There is a stop at the bottom of Nyhavn, which is another must visit, touristy though it is.
Tivoli is a cliche, but it is great, and the restaurant Groften, within Tivoli, is proper Danish home cooking, very well done for a busy venue, and family friendly.
Imho, it is well worth avoiding Christiania, which has become a scuzzy, sleazy tourist venue, as of 2022, anyway.
The spiral tower at Our Saviours probably isn't great for a 18mo baby, but the view from the top is worth the effort for adults. The opera house is great, the Little Mermaid is probably the most disappointing major tourist attraction on earth. |

Potentially tricky meeting Manchester, but maybe next time, which could well be on the way home! |

Maybe true, but Cameron's stupidity is what ended up empowering sh1tbags like Johnson, Farage, Rees-Mogg, Braverman, Truss, and the biggest t0sser of the lot, Frost. |

Southampton
- decent ground, one of the best 'replacement' grounds, fans OK, easyish trip.
WBA
- Proper ground, good fans, easyish trip
Leeds
- Sh1te ground, arguably the most unpleasant fans in England, longer but easy trip
I think that WBA would be the best result for us, Soton not a disaster. Really it is all about who is most likely to beat Leeds. |

Agreed.
He clearly isn't good enough to be a Premier League regular, and although he has improved with age, he will be 32 by the start of next season. |

Both goalkeepers, Tuanzebe if he fully fit. Maybe Davis, Morsy, for a season, Hirst.
Times were very different, but GBs squad had players with decent previous Premiership experience, Croft, Mowbray, Venus, Magilton, and also included several players who went on to have a good few years in the Premiership with other clubs. Wright (sort of) Bramble, Clapham, Scowcroft, Stewart. |

Reply | Would Leicester have been better off sttling for a points deduction this year?
at 13:04 5 May 2024
I suspect that we could do with them getting a big points deduction next year.
Although the really huge points deduction should be handed to ManC, who are about to cheat their way to another title. (And yes, they are the best side, but how do they fund it within the rules) [Post edited 6 May 11:15]
