Absolutely agree, got to give him longer than 4 or 5 league games. On Saturday Milan and Bobby should have dealt with that, no error from Rushworth. At Oxford the first wall had a huge hole in it which meant he could blast the ball straight through it and the 2nd wall Bobby turned his back on...

Rightly so, Bobby has been at fault for a few goals recently. Hopefully the Woolfenden signing raises Bobby's game (y)

Yeah 1st goal there was a hole in the wall and he could hit it as hard as he wanted. And also a poor foul to give away in the first place by Bobby Thomas. 2nd goal Bobby Thomas turned his back and jumped sidewards. I do think Rushworth and the wall should have done a bit more to delay the free...

The thing is if back up players have to play then it will only be 1 or 2 coming in and not 8 in one go. So their performance will improve with better quality players around them.

I thought EMC was really good too, their right back couldn't handle him at all first half. Won the penalty with a lovely turn and scored a very well taken header.

100%, the meltdown on forums after 1 game is incredible. Hull defended very well in their low block, especially Charlie Hughes who won everything. Our match sharpness will be better as we play a few games. Lampard took us from 17th to 5th last season, turned our season around and gave us a very...

No easy games in the Championship (well maybe Sheff Weds against half a squad). I'd take 8 points, that would eclipse the awful starts of the last 3 or 4 seasons! And give us a good base to build on.

More to do with the fact that it's peak summer holiday, people away on holiday, people short on money trying to keep the kids busy whilst they are off school, people just bought home tops for the family and also the 12:30 kick off. We'll 100% sell it out.

Anywhere from 4th to 12th. Parachute teams with their big money (especially wages), Birmingham and Wrexham flexing their muscles with some big spending, other teams like Norwich spent well so far. I'd imagine the usual Middlesbrough, West Brom, etc will be around the chasing pack for the...

Yeah you're right there, that's the Brentford model that we wanted to follow. Buy players, develop them, sell for a decent profit and reinvest the cash. Keep building, improving the income and adding to the value of the squad. For players the Championship is a good stepping stone / route into...

Cat A+ is definitely steep, the only saviour is it's probably only going to be a couple of games (Birmingham, Leicester, maybe last game of the season). I agree, the rest looks fairly standard Championship pricing. Until the TV money is filtered down better, ticket pricing in general in the...

Yeah definitely at least double. They're not the same position anyway. Langstaff is a centre mid, Rudoni is a number 10. Even if they or another team went for Rudoni, it's going to take at least £25m, especially with Rudoni having 3 years left on his contract. We're in a strong position in that...

I agree, in my opinion the only way we are getting another goalie in is if we sell one first. It's very rare for a team at our sort of level to carry 4 senior goalies, even 3 is a push. Ideally we'd want to offload Collins but Collins might be thinking he may have a chance of starting games...

Sheff Utd, so there is 1 less parachute side in the league next season (y)

That's sport for you and that's why the Championship is such a good league, teams towards the bottom are more than capable of beating playoff teams at home. Look at Monday, 5 out of the bottom 7 won, with the other 2 drawing against each other. Another tough game coming up on Saturday...

Absolutely, fingers crossed 🤞 hopefully a better start than the past 3 seasons!

Yes there might have been dropped points like at Hull, but on the flip side we've had 6 90+minute winners, some of those games we didn't deserve to win. Swings and roundabouts.

A win would be huge but it's a must not lose

Zero chance? We'll only be a point behind them with a win. They've got a few difficult games in there too. Plenty more twists and turns to come yet, teams fighting in different situations. Look at Sheff Utd, lost back to back games against Oxford and Millwall

It's a tough situation as it's hard to tempt a club to loan us a player who's just going to be cover for Milan and play the odd few games. They want their players to go out and play regularly.
