Not suggesting you’re wrong, however this was not highlighted by Frank Lampard in the press conference when he was asked about injuries.

In terms of our development model there's some really good players here.

The latter I would suspect.

All consistent with when Lampard switched to 5-3-2 due to injuries, Simms scored 4 in 8 games and BTA 3 in that same period.

Spot on Hobo.

I am on the fence with Simms. Based on yesterday's game and others like it this season, I can see the frustration that comes with Simms. I would balance this by saying I don't think he is suited to playing a lone striker role and it's not a surprise that his best performances this season came...

Posted it on here a couple of times, but IMO we need to switch back to 5-3-2. Wilson in goal, Collins looks devoid of any confidence and FL would be protecting him by taking him out the team. Wilson, MVE, Thomas (if fit, if not Binks), Lati, Kitching, JDS, Sheaf, Grimes, Rudoni, Wright and...

Drop Collins for Wilson. Go back to 5 at the back. Bring Sheaf into Midfield for Allen.

Like many I was also there. Fantastic day, the start of the revival.

Gary Weaver, Daniel Mann and Don Goodman from Sky are very good. I also like ITV’s commentary teams of Sam Matterface, Lee Dixon, Ally McCoist and previously Clive Tyldesley (who I think has retired now?).

Sorry if this has been covered in this thread earlier or one of the others, but has it actually been confirmed what is wrong with Ben Sheaf? It’s a real shame that he’s had the issues he’s had.

Great result, just what we needed after the Derby defeat. I expected a lot more from the Mackems, but they put up no fight whatsoever and were really poor. Good way to end this period before the International break. Haji MOTM, but Jamie Allen was also very close to MOTM, he was everywhere in...

Totally agree it's needed, but not because we are missing Rudoni, because we are missing EMC. As I referred to in another post, I would've gone 5-3-2 last night with Torp behind Haji and Simms.

Last night I was really frustrated with the game, I thought after some sleep I might feel better, but no. In a nutshell I thought Frank Lampard got it badly wrong last night with his selection and that cost us. Bidwell at LB was the wrong call for me, JDS played well Saturday and Bidwell has...

Captains log, still won’t flush, will try again later.

With regards the Balcony Bar and hospitality areas, is there any added in to buying in these areas for home fixtures, like additional points? I appreciate paying to sit in an area of the ground where you are more comfortable and able to have complimentary drinks is great, but doesn’t seem to...

I thought the same, BTA was dreadful when he came on, I’ve never been convinced by him. He also gave the ball away which turned over possession for their first goal.

At this stage of the season I don’t care how we get them but just got to keep picking up points, in three’s preferably! We weren’t at our best, but great character from the boys to win again.

Proof will ultimately be in the pudding, if we get promoted via the playoffs then Doug got it right. Lampard and his team have done very well so far, it’s promising with so many players now coming back into the fold and two players signed since they took over it’s going to be an exciting run in.

I wish I had! 😅
