    Not very often that someone bags a hattrick but doesn’t get MotM but McCallum changed the whole game today with his early goal and penalty win. Gets it from me. And MotM.

    Convinced their start to the season was a flash in the pan. They’re one trick ponies. It’s a good trick mind, despite how ugly it is on the eye. Word travels quickly around clubs though once a team has got found out. Expect them to drop like a stone now. Akinfenwa is embarrassing. Waddles about...

    Listen to me, hear me out 3

    Nothing from our side. On the whole we’ve been brilliant against the top sides in each of the last 3 seasons. Today we played a team that was top of the league, playing at home and desperate to win after consecutive defeats (rather than a Lincoln who came for a draw and to nick a win if they...

    "IF" we managed to get promoted... How would we fund it

    Think Sheffield U built themselves a side far too good for this division and then the continuity carried them on. I hope that’s our underlying plan.

    It’s a good question - the flexibility in midfield is the beauty in it. Allen and Shipley if you want runners beyond the strikers, O’Hare and Jones if you want direct running, Walsh and Westbrooke for possession footy. It’s pretty versatile if used correctly.

    "IF" we managed to get promoted... How would we fund it

    Dabo, McCallum, Godden, Westbrooke, Rose, Hyam all worth fees if we need it. Jones if he can prove his fitness again and Shipley if his trajectory continues. I think that having that many saleable assets highlights the squad is in a good position to step up a level with a few astute signings.

    This is starting to piss me off now. They weren’t calling for that. 1 person and 1 person only said that the next couple of games were massive otherwise it would be. A few people constructively discussed the things they felt were going wrong with this season and a bunch of others felt it was too...

    And Godden’s movement into space for his hattrick goal is amazing. The focus will rightly be on Shipley’s excellent bit of skill but it’s that little bit of awareness and anticipation that both Biamou and Bakayoko lack, the kind of thing that you can’t teach and is the difference between good...

    I'm still shaking my head at Wycombe's tactics. They done the same thing every time we've played them since L2 and despite losing each time they've just gone for another rinse and repeat. Baffling management.

    Wycombe played right into our hands there but we had to take the chances and we were clinical with our finishing today. Loved that performance. Really hope it's the match that is the catalyst for our season. Now lets follow that up with a 5-0 at Tranmere!

    Surely we can give Allen 10 mins here too for Shipley.

    2 of today's goals have been from playing long direct passes too because Wycombe are playing a higher line than anyone we've played this season. The isolation complaints come from knocking it around 15 times in midfield and then having 1 option marked by a back four ahead. Giving it up now so I...

    But it's fine to play that away from home against the league leaders, they're always going to come at us and an extra man in midfield against a long ball team plays suits our passing game. There will be games e.g. home to a team sitting deep and lacking ambition, where 2 up front is important...
