Thought that a few weeks back but couldn’t find anywhere offering odds on it. Their league performance so far is shameful.

If we were to play 2 attacking midfielders we need to look at bringing someone in. Marcus Browne may be available for a loan move in January according to the papers up north and I’d quite like to see him come in and challenge/play alongside O’Hare. Edit: would also give us an option to change...

But he doesn’t miss chances so much as never get in the positions for a chance to come his way.

Yes, quite evident that despite his height he cannot play the lone striker role and was really concerning that we continued to go direct yesterday early on when the ball just came back at us. If we’re 1 up top we need to play with the ball on the ground like we did last season. If Max is up...

Are we counting Rose’s goal away at Pompey from McCallum’s long throw?

End of the season.

To be fair to them, we did. And it worked.

I get the impression that Ostigard is expected to replace McFadz at some stage this season, both quite aggressive defenders. He’s out of contract at the end of the season.

And given our scouting style, it may be worth a punt to see if the next one is a success.

Horrendous so far (admittedly, missed the first 5-10 mins). No composure and trying to go too direct with this formation/system. Need to go back to what worked for us last season if we’re to play this system, be brave on the ball and keep it moving quickly.

Ordered the new third kit for my little brother as a Christmas present, got the shirt and shorts within about a week but another week on and no sign of the socks. Don’t know why it was all sent individually, which has slightly unnerved me.

Just finished this week’s 5km run and down to 27:54 (from 30:35 4 weeks ago). Really happy with that but know I can get below 27 with a bit more work.

Tbh I thought that penalty was down to us playing wing backs.

Back again. Longest run to date this morning, 4.3 miles in 43 minutes. Quite happy with the pacing considering it’s another step up in distance. Set myself a goal to do a 10k by Christmas and looking reasonably promising, it’s finding the time to do it more than anything.

Indeed, I’m now down to 12st11 (from 14st1) and am pretty happy with where I’m at. It feels natural now to be eating at a calorie deficit which means I can still have a few beers and a/or a takeaway at the weekend. The running has also really helped.

I’m absolutely the same. Saving me 2 hours of travel a day, plus the cost and the freedoms to exercise longer or get a head start on housework during my lunch hour. My employer has said we will largely be adopting homeworking after this, which is a relief. How would this work in practice...

And prior to that had 1 win in 8. A team that were in the playoffs last season - yes I’d say that constitutes ‘out of form’.

Not really. Look at the opposition we’ve faced - Blues and Derby in particular are awful in attack. Norwich had no strikers. Again, lazy to look at it as a binary thing. And that’s before we get to the fact that we played 3 at the back v Norwich.

I’d also dispute we were in control, bar the first 15-20 minutes. Derby were able to get at us far too easily in wide areas and they did have a few gilt-edged chances, as Brighton mentions. Let’s put this into context, that Derby team have scored 2 goals from open play all season, and they...

Dear lord. Own it.
