Someone like Matty James was a v good fit for us - better than Walsh, anyway. Would Walsh start ahead of Hamer? Or would we play the two together? I’d say probably not to both questions.

Signing Walsh right after his loan spell would’ve been a great. Even this summer, I weren’t 100% sold on it despite liking him as a player. Personally, I’d have rather signed James than Walsh given the choice this preseason. I still think we need someone with a bit of experience in CM despite...

An improvement on last season for sure! Despite talk of being a 'weaker' team going into this season, we've looked a lot better than last season already! The quality of teams hasn't been the best, and against Blackpool we were lucky not to concede - the early signs have been promising!

Agreed, the African cup of nations kits were really good! I like some of their international kits too. Club football, I think some Arsenal kits were alright. But, Adidas has since done a much better job.

Puma do some nice clothing, trainers and sportswear. But, their football kits are actually horrible.

Out of curiosity, what % of people doing their FA/UEFA badges come from a ethnic minority background? All for inclusion and would like to see what the strategy is for engaging Asian communities too.

Only time will tell, but judging from Robins’ comments, he still rates Kelly v highly and is probably still his first choice. That said, Sheaf is doing v well and if he keeps this up, he will definitely stake a claim. In our team, we definitely need one of Kelly or McFadz in the starting line...

If he could get 10 goals and 10 assists a season, he’d be a Premier League player. Very classy on the ball and very good off the ball too! We’ve got a v good player who will grow with us (hopefully).

60 points is a doable target for this year. It was only our poor away form which held us back last season.

I’ve looked into this and Sheaf had some impressive stats. However, Kelly’s overall rating was better than Sheafs - 6.74 to 6.60 iirc. Sheaf had injuries to deal with last year so I’m hoping he can elevate his game that much more this season. I like him and think £750,000 could be v good value...

The last two season our first away win was around the Xmas period. Wycombe away in 2019/20 season and Millwall in 20/21. Which makes our start all the more encouraging because we’ve dominated both teams we’ve played away.

17,000 to 18,000

He made a last ditch tackle to keep us in the game v Barnsley…

The iFollow reply was a bit too fast, I’m hoping at best, Gyo’s goal hit his side rather than his arm… but it looks an obvious handball at full speed. We’ve definitely got the rub of the green this half despite our dominance. Conceded two clear cut chances and our goal probably shouldn’t have been.

You have to be impressed with our start. We’ve dominated Forest (second half), Barnsley away and now Blackpool. We’ve looked the most vulnerable v Blackpool so far though! Clarke-Salter has been on the wrong side of the defender a couple of times and McFadz was all over the shop for that big...

We’ve looked v good this season so far! Confident on the ball and creating chances. But, our conversion rate needs to pick up.

He isn’t the best passer of the ball, you’re right. Overall, he was probably our best defensive midfielder and that is his primary role. Had we signed Matty James, that would’ve been Kelly’s replacement. We didn’t and the search continues - it’s really not that simple to go out and sign a...

Not sure what it is exactly, but we look a lot more dangerous whenever Walker is on the pitch. Personally, I think he’s the best we’ve got at the club. If I was picking the team, I’d have have one of Gyo/Waghorn and one of Godden/Walker as my strike partnership. We did enough yesterday to win...

Leadership is one of, if not the most important things in a team setting in any team sport. Teams without good leadership tend to underperform. So to see you call it ‘the stuff of minnows’ is just a careless comment. Realistically, with where we’re at now, Kelly is a good player to have and...

We’re in trouble based on what? We survived with him comfortably last year. In fact, our PPG was relegation form without him. He’s our most influential player and is fine for the level we’re at and the notion that ‘we’re in trouble’ because he’s a start is just nonsense. However, I agree Kelly...
