Being the saddo that I am, and based on the wisdom of crowds, predictions so far (where specific finish places have been stated) average out at 11th. Seems about right to me.

Yep, missed that part. Apologies.

To be fair, he didn't specify league. Although the stat is dodgy because, if you take out the Norwich drubbing, it's fairly comparable. (And I say to take Norwich out only because we didn't play a team of that stature this time last season)

We tried experience. Pressley loved a journeyman pro, and what good did that do us? Now we have a youngish team, with a good number on permanent deals. That was what TM wanted. And sure, he also wants a few old heads to mix alongside them, but young and hungry gives us a future to look forward...

Personally I'm glad it's a young squad. Room for the players to grow. Better than average-to-middling, mid-to-late 20 year-olds who won't improve.

I'm not disappointed because, being honest, I haven't heard of 90% of players we sign these days. Some are good, some are crap, most are somewhere inbetween.

What point are you making? It seems to change with every post. Is it a) Chuba Akpom is shit, b) Andre Wright is shit, c) Coventry City is shit, or d) you don't actually know?

I thought your point was that 1 in 12 at Kidderminster's level was poor? I don't see how Akpom fits into that argument.

Remind me how many Callum Wilson got on loan?

*Insert bi-polar bear joke here*

I'm starting to wonder if I've accidentally wandered onto the Manic Depressive forum. We're either the best thing since sliced bread or the worst thing since I got a scotum caught in my zipper. There's hardly ever balance to anything.

Did we not score last week?

Why worried? It's L1. There's a cigarette paper of difference between pretty much every team, and between most of the players too. We probably won't go up, and probably won't go down.

Derek's a good shout. A comedy that gets dust in your eyes at times. More an 'old-fashioned', gentle style comedy than most others that end up on TV these days.

It's a common complaint. He's a panster by nature (i.e.writes without planning ahead) and often reaches a point where he has to find an ending that fits what he's written. The writers that pre-plan often have stronger endings, but there is far less 'life' to the books, because the writer forces...

The book was excellent, like most of Stephen King's work, but the majority of adaptations are, quite frankly, gash. Be interested to see if this bucks the trend.

Going through the list again, I'd say Black Books should be higher. Had me roaring at times, probably because I can see a bit too much of me in Bernard Black.

IIRC Blackburn offered us twice what we paid for him within a few weeks of him signing but we declined. Was always a boo-boy's favourite, but he worked damn hard for the team. I know it's not all about effort, but many successful players become so just because they have the deive to overcome a...

Count Arthur Strong the radio series is brilliant. Up there with the very best, and believe me I've listened to tens of thousands of hours or radio comedy. The TV series, however, was dog dirt. They changed the character, reducing almost everything that made it genius to nothing. It does not...

I get that people are peed off with the result and the way the season has started, but it really is much, much too early to draw any firm conclusions about what the season may hold. My only real gripe so far is the formation, but maybe that's the Mike Basset in me.
