The same people wanting new signings and a bigger squad are same people who want somebody else to pay for it, it seems! Given the gulf with the PL it's inevitable that the club would seek to make money from walkup ticket sales. If the ground is full then there isn't a strong argument against it...

The results yes but not the lessons!

Take away the Everton win it was actually pretty poor. It did surprise me though when they failed to turn up at Stoke given all the talk and the hype!

Couldn't break down Sunderland either.

top heavy fractions ;)

The bigger issue for me so far is the failure to score in 4 halves. Rudi missed a couple and that's about as close as we've come. If we're going to concede as many as last season (and that looks highly likely at the moment) we need to be creating much more and finishing. It's been clear for some...

Not at all and maybe that's what will happen in the short term. Ultimately the size of the squad will be limited, as ever, by the total pay bill to keep the annual losses under some sort of control.

Yes. He turned up in Portugal today.

Sheaf needs to iron out the mistakes that still haunt his game. Perhaps it's less of an issue now we have Grimes in front of the defence but it's probably time for him to move on really.

Jay is a great attacking option but he has a couple of major mistakes in him per game defensively, often from fancy, over-elaboration. Opponents attack us down our left flank for fun when he's playing. I think it pulls kitching wide to cover and is very much part of the defensive issues we've...

I suspect it's probably like his move to Sporting, he already knows where he wants to go.

The problem we might well have with Haji this summer is hanging onto him. All this blame game stuff will not help in the slightest and he'll be very expensive to replace.

We just don't have the money for big changes and even if we did we don't want to sacrifice the season to rebuilding again.

I'm not anit-Lampard in the slightest. I thought Robins should go after the Leeds game, in fact. but that's not the point. I think the issue is the slow and predictable buildup play. Teams know how to play us now and just park the bus, which gives our strikers little chance. Give us a high...

Let's face it Lampard and his team haven't got the best out of any of our strikers. I know Haji came back from a bad injury and none of us knows the full impact of that but there does seem to be an issue here. I think the Jury is still out on Frank in this area. We certainly can't keep throwing...

What scope is there to add capacity and some stage in the future - ignoring the politics and ownership issues? It's penned in by the road and rail but another 10k seats might be doable...

Never mind that they lost on the day - that is why they were relegated. The Chin and the Club were also cleared by an FA investigation, but the morons don't let facts get in the way of fake rivalry

I thought he looked very pale yesterday for someone who has been outside training every day in the sunshine. Something's not right there...

Anyone would think the opposition has no defence reading some of this! Our strikers just queue up to score and if they miss they're shit. I don't remember anyone said that Vik was shit when McNair kept him quiet in '23. I do remember a lot of people calling Godden shit - be careful what you wish...

There is a difference playing on the left with a back 4 rather than a 3/5. He clearly isn't a left winger to my eye and pushing him out there to accommodate an out-of-form Simmo just has not worked for him. Obviously we wouldn't have been playing this way if Ephron was fit. Wright is easily...
