Blackburn were very good to be fair and with a red card, hardly a surprising outcome after the card within 15 minutes. Looking at our opposition, we’ve had a real tough run of it since the Bournemouth game. Things will get better.

It kills the game off. Surely it’s not a penalty AND a red card. To be fair, we’re still in this game and that’s something positive to take from this half.

How often do Allen and COH receive the ball out wide? It’s not a much of a change. There isn’t much difference in our shape and a 3-4-3 which is generally played with wingers.

2nd penalty he’s conceded this season. Why do we give away so soft penalties?

Head says a draw. But, I fancy us to steal a win. 2-1 - Gooden and COH.

I wonder what’s happened to Marquis. Given the choice, I’d have chosen him over Gooden, at the time. Maybe Robins would have too, given his past interest in him. Has Marquis become a bad player, or is Jackett playing tactics that don’t get the most out of him. Either way, I’m glad we ended up...

I don’t think we need that kind of player. We need to move and retain the ball better. As soon as Kelly came on yesterday we kept the ball better and that lead to our attacking players getting the ball higher up the pitch and created better chances. Brentford, Bournemouth and Barnsley pressed...

Judging by his comments last night, MR is very much in disagreement. He singled Gooden out for praise. Walker has to earn his stripes, and I’m sure given the chance, he will do at some point.

With the amount of injuries/suspensions we have, there isn’t really much depth or options at the minute. It’s an unfair comment to make about this game because we finished the game on top, and it’s fair to say we were the better team tonight. Generally, it doesn’t make much sense to change...

We were much improved today. Few notes I made on the game: - Shipley looked a lot better in an advanced role and his goal was fantastic - McCallum is a great little inverted wing back on the right hand side - Giles looks like a goal threat and was unlucky not to score - Kelly's introduction...

Does this apply to Now TV at all?

He said something like that, but doesn’t mean he didn’t have the future in mind when making this transfer. Kelly is the club captain, and Hamer was signed for in and around £1m. Sheaf is clearly going to important because Kelly struggles with fitness, and this season we often have 2 games a...

Whilst I’m not going to trawl through last seasons results, there were a lot of instances where substitutes won the game for us by scoring key goals, assists and generally changing the complexion of the match. Biamou v Bolton springs to mind. A lot of people are basing their opinions on two...

Didn’t we get the most points from a losing position last season?

I’m outlining that switching to 4-5-1, it puts one of our best players out of position. This is because COH is either going to be played deeper, on the wing or not at all. What team would you play to accommodate 4-5-1? Our best 11 is going to be in a 3-4-2-1 or 3-4-1-2. It’s what we’ve planned...

Naive performance. Sheaf has been caught napping on the ball too much today. We need Kelly and Hamer back in the middle.

How many goals have come down Giles’ wing? Made it too easy.

Playing 4-5-1 reduced the amount of players we have centrally? We already play with 3/4 central midfielders. Dropping COH down the pitch, or altogether is a bad idea. We don’t have any wingers, our strikers would be left isolated and it takes away one of our central defenders away, which has...

Generally what happens against better quality opposition. Especially when we’re away. At least we’ve gone into the break at 0-0, got back into the game near the end of the half, even creating a clear cut chance. We’re newly promoted, and we’re not good enough to go toe-to-toe with the big...

Unrecognisable league. Brentford are one of the favourites this season for a reason. You can tell this isn’t our strongest team as we have been very loose and so far, very sterile.
