    You know what comes next, Ogogo will now sign for another League 1 team, and when we next meet them, play a blinder....

    Started off thinking a draw, but now reconciled to a 2-1 defeat. They are better than their position. A lot will depend on Bayliss conjuring up something, as he has in the last three games. If Kelly plays will he last 90 minutes? Same team as Wycombe I suspect, altho I would pair JCH and Hiwula...

    Chaplin Move Completed

    So far all I see is poor first touch, too many opportunities missed, poor positional sense, too short, too slow. We have overpaid in terms of the actual product. His acquisition was more suited to the Allessani model as he might be good in a couple of years

    The Curious Case of Jordy Hiwula

    Loanees - yet another example of fan bollox, as shown by the following statements heard . "I hate loanees we should be building a squad" "Sterling was MOTM" or "Thomas was MOTM" We could easily go to three loanees from the current two. Winger is a good position to recruit loanees for as there...

    Westbrooke looks like Bayliss mk 2. Bayliss has played very well the last 3 games (one goal two assists) - watch this space?

    oops posted in error. Was about to say that McNulty is on the best earner he is ever likely to have. If he has any commercial sense he will sit it out in Reading, playing or not

    It's that time again, when people assume footballers should show a level of loyalty barely anybody else would show in the same situation 1. They are all on short term contracts 2. They have a career of 20 years max more likely 12-15 years. They have a duty to themselves to maximize their...

    We are in crisis

    Didn't Wycombe have the same points as us going into the game, having just had quite a good run? Just calling them League 2 level must mean we are too? Bayliss has been the difference in the last three games, he is a game-changer even when off the boil. In August I would have been very happy...

    I suspect Doyle for an injured Kelly; Thomas to still be with us; JCH on the bench A draw would handy, but I thought that about Wycombe Is the presence of McCallum a threat to Shipley?

    As JCH and Chaplin have both been Loan to Buy deals I am not sure that method is the best

    I think they can during the loan period. He is not"bought" until January

    Allessani did more against Luton in his brief cameo than some of the other players did in 90 minutes. He was almost my MOTM (says more about the rest). Very quick feet, but you worry whether he will be sufficiently physically robust enough. From a distance physically indistinguishable from JJ

    Burge: 7 - Solid. But no more Cruyff turns please, they are not good for my heart. Stick it in row Z Sterling: 8 - less spectacular than against Southend, but just a class act Hyam: 8 - Playing away so central defenders are bound to be busy. He has a greater impact on the overall game than...
