is how I feel. The blow of not really going for it last season was softened by the idea that we'd have a great Championship side if we came back down and that we could regroup and go again.

As a result, despite the disappointment of last year, I've been as excited about this season as I was about last, feeling confident that we could have a real go of it with some exciting players who have proven to be quality in the Championship.

Instead it looks like we've just gotten rid of a load of quality, and now look to be selling debatably our most talented player, who never got a chance in the team because he "doesn't fit Warnock's style of play." Warnock that is, who's leaving after this season.

Maybe I am being negative but my enthusiasm levels for this season have plummeted in the last couple of hours. Hopefully the Bobby Reid rumours are bullshit though!
