The tone is set. Meyler will be awful even if he MOTM in every game and scores 25 goals from midfield. Good to know.

What’s underwhelming? Meyler?

I don’t believe there’s an extended loan window at all now, even in the summer.

I also wonder with Brown whether it was him and Ogogo together that were disruptive influences. May well be that now Ogogo has departed Brown starts committing more to the team ethic.

Can’t wait for him to get out on that pitch, scuff a cross straight out for a goal kick and forever more be branded ‘Charlie Wankfield’.

Your banging of the Ponticelli drum is really very weird. Are you a relative of his?

Don’t really understands how that works considering he was out of contract last summer. Not denying it may have been the case, just odd.

Where do you work, chief?

Does the show have a winner per se? I can’t recall one last year.

I’d be a big fan of that approach but you’d get some right weapons giving the club stick for not buying players. Other side of it would be the wage restrictions we have in place, would have to generate a higher turnover to be able to run this model.

It doesn’t but it does break the opposition’s game up. At times yesterday we looked scared of committing to a tackle, it’s like all of our players were already on a booking.

Lacks the pace to stretch the game when required. That’s what I meant.

If we are persisting with 1 up top you have to play Bakayoko. He’s the only one with the physical attributes to play in that position. Yet there is a lingering doubt over his technical ability and tactical awareness. The setup we have doesn’t actually suit any of the strikers Robins brought in.

Everyone runs into the same area at corners, meaning the ball has to be perfect to hit one of them. No near/far post runs. Free kicks we just play quickly due to the lack of aerial presence. Throw ins though, if I see feet-and-back straight out of play one more time I will gouge my eyes out. We...

Sensational.

What’s going on with Venezuela then? What’s this supposed coup all about?

Do I want him sacked? Absolutely not. Do I think he needs to make some serious changes to our play? Definitely. Everything is so structured and predictable in everything we do, it’s like the pitch has been separated into a grid and the players aren’t allowed in certain sections. At one point...

Really looked like he’d turned a corner following last season and the start of this season, but that Walsall mistake seems to have killed his decision making.

Really want to go to India at some point. Be a job convincing the other half though I’d imagine.

Why on earth? Is he carrying an injury I’m unaware of?
