Looking for 1x Adult ticket in the lower tier, would need to pick it up in London now.

If our central midfielders can't pass or dribble we're in big trouble

He's also 26th percentile for pass completion, 8th for take ons, <30 for blocks, interceptions and clearances. He's attempted 51 take ons and been successful in 8! That's shocking.

Why drop Fadz when he's been our best defender for the last few years? Allen and Ayari looks scarily light in midfield. I'd do Kelly for Allen.

So? Doesn't contradict what I said, he's at best average in the championship. Him being part of a side that got carried to the playoffs on the back of two outstanding players, in one of the easiest years to make it, doesn't change that.

Well, quite, yes. We should've bought a solid creative central midfielder who could come straight in and start games. I assumed Ayari was going to play there, maybe he will in time. But we should've got him AND another. With Sheaf's injury we're now effectively starting our 3rd and 4th choice...

Because Bayliss and Shipley broke out in L2 where they were genuinely good players for that level? Eccles is an average championship player at best. It's logical he doesn't get the same praise. If Shipley or Bayliss were still here they'd be getting even more flak.

Means little when we're at a much higher level than we've been for a decade.

It’s fairly obvious that a starting midfield of Kelly and Eccles is not good enough to get in the top 6. They are the biggest issue, not the rest of the team.

Agreed! I don’t get the 180 on Simms. I'm baffled at how people say Wright’s touch is poor when it is noticeably better than Simms is. Even without playing well he has created problems for defences with his pace and physicality, something that Godden can’t even offer on his best days. My main...

And what a strike it was!

Stat of the day: If Liam Kelly plays 67 mins on Saturday he will already have played more regular season championship minutes than he did last season.

Goal(s) on Saturday for either of our new strikers would be massive. We’ve got a decent allocation and everyone is desperate to see them score.

Their stadium fulfills the league two requirements.

Wright has looked far better than Simms…

Nah mate, he’s a donkey and lazy and shit. We’ve written him off now so we better boo him out the club before he causes further damage. After all we are the mighty play-off finalists Coventry City and anyone who is any less than premier league quality on their first day should be fired- out of a...

Not sure what thread it was in but I did see someone questioning loans vs owning players. Now we’re an established Championship club loan players are only beneficial if they actually get us promoted; if they don’t we run into the situation we are now, where multiple first team players have left...

If any of the old players are “letting it be known” that the quality has dropped after 7 games they’re as much to blame as the new lads. What a way to build some team spirit…

I’ve heard some criticisms of football players in my time but not making eye contact is a new one…!

And? Akpom was 26 last summer and had never managed more than 10 league goals in a season. Then it clicked at Boro and he got 28.
