Sorry don’t agree with that.
We have Kipre, Allsop, Romeo, Wintle, Rinomhota, Robinson, O’Dowda all of whom are top quality performers at this level and why the manager had to go.
The problem is can these players fit into a Warnock style ?
Robinson is the only one I would class as a top quality championship player.
O Dowda is decent but there's a reason he's spend most of his carrer at mid to bottom half championship clubs. Romeo has jumped between between league 1 and championship Wintle and Alslop aren't young and spend most of there carriers in league 1.
I'm not slagging any of them off and they wouldn't look out of place in a top half team but there not top quality and when mixed with players who are way passed their best (Swayers) or not championship standard you end up with a relegation battle.
No !!
I judge on performances and all of those, individually, have been outstanding for virtually the whole season.
If you can’t see that Wintle and Kipre are quality as well as the others then I think you need to remember we’re playing in the Championship not the Premier.
Put it this way, if any of those(plus Davies and Colwill) were up for sale there would be a lot of higher placed Championship clubs bidding for them. That tells you how strong that squad is and how poorly Hudson has managed them.
This squad, quality wise, is arguably better than what Warnock had to play with when he got us up. However, I do wonder whether it’s balanced enough.

McGregor about the same as Alsop
Peltier, Bruno, Mozza, Bennett & Connolly Jazz![]()

Whitts, Gunner, Ralls, noone & Kadeem Harris
Pilkington, Gounongbe, Lambert and Zohore.
As bad as our front line was when Warnock arrived, only robinson from this squad would get a game upfront
Wintle wouldn't dislodge Gunnar, Ralls could still run and Whitts was Whitts, maybe O'Dowda on the left flank
Then the only question is would Bruno or Kipre;I'd still go with Bruno because he had a bit more pace but Kipre has been our season.
Warnock got that squad well up the table. This is about finishing 4th from the bottom.
He'll need a centre forward though
