Poor would have been selling players like Rudoni and not replacing him. We're stronger than last season. We were lucky that MVE stayed fit but was knackered at the end. We now have a good replacement in KKH. We sold Binks who most agreed wasn't good enough and replaced him with Woolfenden. He...

They were very good tactics and I hope they use them again in the return game.

Constantly tracked back and was an absolute menace to them. Just being there got their player sent off. Wright came to us as a striker but has added a lot more to his game under Lampard.

I called him out for not having the experience needed with a few other managers before the season started. It's something frequently ignored. But saying that I also questioned the experience of Lampard when he came to us so what do I know 😂

Considering we scored in the 16th minute and were never troubled I'm sorry but I have to disagree. I honestly believe we would have won comfortably without their sending off. They used a scattergun approach on signing players. They bought players but didn't buy a team. They paid over the odds...

....who came off the bench and bullied his way in to shoot with the rebound going to Torp for our 3rd goal. Teams like Birmingham would have Simms in their 1st team. We have him warming up the bench. We already have Wright and Thomas-Asante on the pitch. We might not have as many strikers as...

Next 3 for sure. But then Sheffield Wednesday and Wrexham? With only 3 undefeated sides out of 92 in the FL with two of them being 1st and 2nd in the Championship it will be interesting to see if it's us or Middlesbrough who can keep it going the longest. Keep it up for just 2 more games and...

The word Wednesday makes this complicated 🤪 I have faith on us winning on Wednesday. A longer break to recover and we have more than enough to beat Millwall. But Sheffield Wednesday play on Tuesday and we play Wednesday night. Then because of Sky we have to travel to play Sheffield Wednesday on...

Wright was either injured or not fully recovered from his injury for most of last season. Now we're getting the benefit of a fully fit Wright and an improvement of all the players around him. Our opponents try to mark him out of the game but it gives the rest of the players extra space.

Are you forgetting this is America where they won battles in the war where they weren't even involved in 😂 Keep it up lad. You'll get an Oscar.

Their strikers? Torp has scored as many goals this season as Birmingham have 😂😂😂😂😂😂

That's 2 out of the last 3 games without a shot on target and only 5 goals from 7 games. But at least they have the most goals scored after 90 minutes in the Championship. 3 of their 5 goals have come very late. Maybe that's why he said they had a very good chance at just 1-0 down 😂

An excellent bonus of having a world class midfielder as manager. He has taken Torp and Rudoni to a much higher level. Has spoken highly about Eccles a few times now so wouldn't be surprised if he advances as much as the rest of the midfield players.

You are quite funny at times. You spend most of your time moaning about us not signing enough players. But when someone mentions one of the better signings for one of our rivals you say they're not good enough for us. Just shows how difficult it is to improve our squad without wasting money.

Bog standard team. Bog standard support.

Agree other than Rushworth. Faultless for everything he had to do and his distribution easily worth a point.

It isn't about what happens in the game anymore for several on here. Some layed their cards down and stick to them. Eccles, just like many others are not supposed to be good enough just because we went for quality over quantity and failed to get them over the line in time. JDS was supposed to be...

Just the same as about every side in the Championship. We're without 2 of our best attacking players but still outplayed the amazing Birmingham City for nearly the whole game. They didn't have a single shot on target for the whole game yet many thought we would lose today. We're a lot better...

So from those who earlier had a go at Eccles before the game......is he OK as back up?

Good news lads. DelBoy has just contacted me. Just taken delivery of 100 dehumidifiers for the serious bedwetters amongst us.
