Different opinions Steve. My view is that Jones had a positive impact and did more in 20 minutes that Hiwula did in 90. He certainly gave Accrington a different problem. JJ is going to a key player for us this season.

Agreed completely that we need to see Kelly in second half of last season form. I did see Kelly surging forward with the ball yesterday indicating he's getting back there.

I agree Faz with most of this. I just think that Kelly will be the successor.

I agree on the substitutions London but in my opinion the changes should have been made earlier. It was pretty obvious for example that Hiwula was not involved or having any impact on the left - and that was obvious by half time. Also the the Doyle-Ogogo combination was not working. Changes...

I don't think it's so black and white Faz. Doyle's set piece/corner delivery has been top notch this season as an example. Nowhere near a failure. But I'm not sure he should be guaranteed 90 minutes every week. I'd love to see a midfield of Jones-Kelly-Bayliss-Thomas once Jones and Kelly are...

I don't see many games live as I work overseas but I was at the Ricoh today and last week. I do watch all games on IFollow. So a couple of observations after a long spell away from the Ricoh. The atmosphere is far more positive vs. a few years ago and a more enjoyable experience all round. I...

Nick - stupid question. How are you viewing this? I'm not able to see match video on i-follow today?

Always enjoy these. More difficult for Ol this time around as Shippers doesn't quite have the confidence yet to express himself that more experienced players such as Davies and Grimmer have. But a good interview nevertheless. 3,000+ City fans belting out 'Jordan Shipley is one of our own'...

'Sort it out or fuck off.' Ironically how I feel about most of your misguided rantings Grendel.

I agree. Irish Sky Blue is one of the few posters I enjoy reading after a defeat. Balanced and avoids hysteria.

Only three points off the play offs. Very early days. Jones to come back to add that extra dimension. Formation looks to be sorting out itself.

Many positives. Defence is looking strong. Burge a huge improvement. The formation suited us better: 4-1-4-1. I was really impressed by Shipley today and the shape he brings to the team. He has something. Allassani looked very sharp when he came on. Looking forward to seeing Allassani...

Totally agree on Brown and Max.

Come on man! You didn't see any positives at all? Davies, Hyam, Ogogo, Bayliss and the impact that both Brown and Biamou had on the game?

I'm mostly with you Earlsdon on this. 2-3 things I really noticed today: 1. Bayliss is our stand out player. He needs to play centrally driving at defenders. He reminds me of a young Jack Wilshire with his technical skills and ability to carry the ball at pace. Or even a young Paul Gascoigne...

Half agree Singers. I see tremendous quality in the overall squad. Bayliss, Ogogo, Andreu, Jones are a class above. Mason impressed Saturday and it's important to know that fellow professionals see Brown as the best left back in this division. Willis in my opinion can play in the...

Now corrected - thanks Esoterica.

Let's say there are no more additions. Preferred team after 10 games? This is after all players are fully fit and settled in: Burge Sterling, Willis, Davies, Brown Kelly, Ogogo Jones, Bayliss, Andreu Hiwula The great thing about this season...

This interview and how well Jack comes across is why I enjoyed last season so much. Beyond some very memorable performances, the players seemed like decent lads who got along well together. For example, Grimmer, Davies, Stokesy, Jodi, Max, Burgey and even McNulty were not lads walking around...

Could not agree more. Well done to SkyBlueOl and the players involved. There's no reason SkyBlueOl why you can't make a really decent career for yourself in the media - keep working hard and following your passion - you have a natural talent for this.
