Did you see the game today? I don't have any form of sad fascination with him. I think he's a good player, based purely on ability. I don't know him personally, I'm not on Twitter and he doesn't get any preferential treatment because he's an academy player. I think with confidence and the right...

I like the look of the current squad, we are potentially lacking an attacking midfielder, but we still have enough. None of the players that have left are irreplaceable, even Armstrong. He had a fantastic first half season but dropped off a lot during the second half. If Sordell can find form...

Solid gif, just not the right context. He will be a good player for us.

Appreciate this is against the grain, but Stevenson has offered more than McCann in my opinion. Ready made replacement, plus Bigi is more than capable of stepping up.

Few from the stands: "Get it forward" "Get into them" "Change it Mowbray" Those top two are the most generic and shittest phrases. I hear them literally every game.

I always find the fans aspect a tricky one. On one hand, if we have a mediocre/poor season, the 7/8k that still turn up and watch are the hardcore, those that stick with the team (off field bullshit aside) and support their club. Fans who turn up knowing exactly what to expect and therefore...

That wasn't my point? Do I think the formation we currently employ is odd based on personnel and the fact the players don't seem to understand it from an attacking sense? Yes. Am I campaigning for 442? Absolutely not.

Hype > ability. And I wanted to like him.

I don't think we play with wingers, the forward three are more of a narrow triangle with the point as the striker from where I am sitting. They drift wide, but they aren't wingers - that's the purpose of having wing backs. It's an odd formation.

I'm not a larger fan, so I generally go for the craft ale bottles in the fridge i.e. Brewdog. To be fair for a larger Brooklyn is quite enjoyable. There's another larger on tap in there that comes with fantastic pint glasses if your partner has a big enough bag.....

I maintain he's a good player and has the ability to dictate games. He's also a confidence player and the two go hand in hand. His long range accuracy is not great, but he hasn't had a run of games since he left us for Newcastle. It will come. The positive is that he sees the right option...

I think it's great news. We can now go and sign that journeyman striker everyone wants.

Playing devils advocate: O'Brien - did nothing but run around and shout at young inexperienced team mates. Vincelot - half a season of being a "real man" then turned shit when things got tough. Fleck - years and years of having bags of potential, but never achieving it and constantly hiding...

If you like ale, you should head to Birmingham as you can do a fantastic ale trail. We start near New Street, head out to the Jewellery Quarter then back into the centre. Some of my favourites: The Church Lord Clifton Purity Bar The Wellington (the mrs will hate that one...) Old Contempables...

You realise my post was sarcastic?

Another frustrating first half. We've been by far the better team. I'm not a fan of the formation, but at least today the players look as though they understand it more. Sordells first touch is poor and he should have had at least one. However, it's his first game back so I won't write him off...

Bar DKE (who I'm sure of yet), it's strong team on paper. Excited to see that strike force. It's just a shame I know I'll be depressed again at 5.

I know I am in the minoroty but I think this is a good signing. He has the technical ability and vision to dictate games, however I accept he is prone to bad decisions and misplaced passes, but with game time and TM's influence he will come good. Plus, he's only 22. But he is only interested...

The further down the leagues we get, and worse our performances become, the less casual fans we get who turn up to two games a season, shout "get it forward " and think they know everything there is to know about a player after 5 minutes.

Disappointing, embarrassing, disheartening, worrying, coupled with a slight questioning of TM and his performance so far this season, both on and off the field. Sure. Time to all lose our shit and give up a few weeks into the season? Nah.
