In 8 weeks flat? Maybe the builder is called Mary Poppins...

I've been saying for weeks (not because we lost) but I don't see how they can be promoted at all unless they ground share. Rules is rules...

Doyle is a potential England captain in the making I reckon, given time and the right environment.

Sure but if you're propping up those expensive, 3 year contracts on income from sales then it is unsustainable unless you can develop players and sell them on consistently. That is much harder to do with a small, undersized squad heavily reliant on loans.

Wages will be the limit. Spend big and those players will want high wages. I think the wage bill is likely to be similar to last season perhaps a little higher but we'll be paying Frasers' more for the ground too. If you start spending transfer income on the general budget then you have to keep...

I loved the Pony kits, home and away @lacesoutdom . The style doesn't work for today though, too baggy,

Going back to last summer and then the Sunderland game, Panz looked like a terrific move for us

The exception doesn't disprove the rule though. We should keep an eye on this one

Where is the space for them to develop going to come from? I think it's the PL driving this, in essence creating feeder clubs through the loan system at the expense of development. Many kids will end up missing out altogether where another year or two would have made all the difference. Perhaps...

Seeing Dublin at Wembley reminded me that losing him to Villa ultimately cost us a PL place, we have to remember that lesson with Vik. Our striker recruitment over the past few years has either been great of a flop with nothing much in between, we can't afford a failure this time around.

I reckon there must have been a problem with the purple kit, very strange otherwise. It was quite nice all in and an improvement on the pink/blue effort. Clearly we need brown!

I wonder if the switch to u-21 from u-23 has not been a disater for these kids. To be developed enough for a full pro contract and a squad place by 21 is asking a great deal when the best u-21 players are coming on loan from the PL.

Yes, we got the tactics wrong first half.

The injury to Hamer might mean we get to keep him like CoH - let's see how he is...

The Maguire swap for Waghorn wasn't a good one - I hope the boo boys are proud of themselves!

I know it's sore mate.

Absolutley love them all. And to the Godden haters - he buried that pen!

nonsense, inches awy

It's not Dabo's fault. Let's rise above the blame game...

Losing Gus changed the game. What a fluke injury, came down from a jump, hit their player's leg and turned his ankle.
