How bad is it that beating Colchester is seen as a shock win. I don't think it will be a heavy loss, probably 2-0 or 2-1 (you're entitled to think I'm crazy for thinking we can score, let alone get a shot on target)

Jury's still out on JOB, far too hit and miss. Game against Peterborough summed him up, dreadful first half, amazing second. Saturday was the worst I've seen him play (missed a few games mind)

Not a chance, we are more likely to finish closer to the relegation zone than the play-offs.

Most squads in this division are made up of loans and free transfers, it's the way league one works.

Wouldn't surprise me if Clarke was pissed off, he's not a wingback and he knows that as well as anybody else.

14 out of the 24 teams in league one paid a fee for a player this summer. Not a very good indication though because they are very spread out across the league, although five out of the top six spent money, so did six teams currently in the bottom half of the table, which includes the bottom two...

While the system is clearly not working, in most formations/systems this year we are going to struggle due to our lack of strength in the middle. I believe that this deficiency was masked by Wilson and Clarke last year as we skipped the midfield by hitting the ball down the channels for them to...

I hate this sacking managers in the past has done nothing argument. You can just list the names of our previous managers who've been sacked and none have been successful since leaving, this shows they're not good managers. There has never been a case of sacking a manager and then that biting...

We should offer Pressley an ultimatum, drop 5-3-2 and change the system, or go.

We played 4-4-2 against Nuneaton and on the pre-season tour in Italy, 5-3-2 was first used during our 1-0 defeat to Newport County. By this point we had already confirmed the signing of 8 players (Swanson, O'Brien, Allsopp, Coulibaly, Johnson, Pugh, Miller and Tudguy). So we'd signed 3 wingers...

If that is the case then he really is as incompetent as his predecessors. I would love to know what caused this switch in system and what occurred to make Pressley so stubborn against changing it, despite such a bad run and the clarity that we do not have the right players to successfully play...

Again you could argue that if the player isn't good in the system Pressley is persisting with, are they a good signing? I believe Jackson and O'Brien are good players, but they don't fit into the 5-3-2 style, therefore making them mediocre signings.

I do think Reda is a good player at this level. However the jury is still out on whether he is a good signing as i do not regard any player who spends half the season out as a good signing, which he may well do. Time will tell.

Has Pressley made a decent signing since being here? Really struggling to think of one, even previous inept managers who signed tons of sh*t managed to sign a couple of decent players.

Waggott said that we have the 8th/9th biggest budget in league 1. While this should not be an indicator on where we finish due to other factors such as amount of signings (having a very different first 11 takes time to adjust) and squad depth (which i feel we have a lack of), it tells us that...

The one thing i struggle to understand is his signings when he knew he would be playing 5-3-2. To not bring in a natural wing-back or a central midfielder, yet bring in 5 strikers and 3 wingers was a major error.

One Young Adult ticket (so if you're a student or can pass for under 21) for sale for 1/3 of standard price as I cannot attend this one. It's in block 18 but if the attendance is anything like Yeovil then you can pretty much sit where you want. PM if interested.

I'd be more worried about Willis being poached if he continues to put performances in like he has over the past few games.

Isn't their agent Cyrille Regis?
