The final pass wasn’t good, at all. My observation is just on the lack of movement. That’s my gripe with Biamou. The commentator pointed this out too. In those scenarios, we often see Godden either drop off the defender to go to the far post, or he’ll make an effort to get in front of the defender.

As the commentator noted, Biamou was on the wrong side of the defender. In that specific scenario, Biamou failed to make any meaningful movement toward either post and the defender was able to come over and cut the pass out. His movement was pretty static and passive in that attacking phase.

Well, Luton rehired the man that got them to the Championship...

Where were both of these clubs at this point last season? Both teams turned it around in the 2nd half of the season and even Barnsley relied on Wigan going into administration.

Hilßner may get a chance, MR have an injury update earlier this week and it seems that he’s still struggling a bit with his asthma. As for Jobello, he’s making a comeback from a bad injury - he’ll find a way back for him. I’m surprised we didn’t experiment with Giles as a wide player further up...

I'm happy we got Walker in because now we have two good options to choose from. However, we probably need to explore bringing in a loanee in Jan - Baka looks to be bombed out and we cannot rely on Biamou taking his chances. Frankly, I don't think either are good enough at this moment. I had hope...

In our 12 games, we’ve played most of the top 8. By all accounts, we’ve had a disproportionately difficult start. Today was a decent result considering our run, but we’ve got fixtures coming up that we need points from if we’re to for be ourselves a chance of survival.

Summed up by the ‘opportunity’ where he didn’t think to get in front of the defender for Walker’s pass... He doesn’t really add anything to the team and it’s probably not unfair to say he’s way in over his head in the Championship. We’re in a dog fight and only Walker and Godden look the only...

0-0 is a decent result and a valuable clean sheet. We looked better attacking when we went to 5-3-2, however, we also looked more open. Walker looked lively today, but that was the only real positive that stuck out for me. Few notes: - Dabo's touch was off - Kelly was loose in possession -...

The difference in movement between Walker and Biamou is night and day. If we can get Gooden and Walker upfront together, we could cause some teams some issues.

Too attacking for me.

The DaCosta suggestion could be a very decent option. A lot of teams utilise a traditional full back as part of a back 3. If pace was the fundamental issue, Pask would be worth considering. But, given his lack of game time so far, it’s a stretch. In fairness to the defence, our structure in...

That's because concede a penalty every 3rd shot we face...

Biamou has been better than expected. However, he hasn’t made the most of his chances so far. In contrast, Walker and Gooden will take their chances more often than not. I do think we can turn things around, but we just have to stop killing ourselves. Too many penalties conceded and too many...

How many soft penalties do we want to concede this season? It’s amateurish.

Given that we’re not even 1 year into a 5 year parliament, it wouldn’t really matter if Labour were + 10 or 15% in the polls. Miliband had a couple of good polls results in the lead up to 2015, and Labour lost a lot of seats. A bit pessimistic here, but I really struggle to see how Labour...

Now that would be a funny turn of events!

I’ve read some statistics that are worrying. My old university topped the country with 66% of people saying they suffer with mental health disorders. My ex at Uni certainly struggled with a few more wobbles than I. As well as a few friends and acquaintances of mine. An acquaintance of my exes...

I'm highlighting trends where traditional parties are losing it's traditional party base. In the UK, Labour stretched its advantage in metropolitan areas, and won a few University town/city seats. In the US, the Democrats have widened the gap in states like California. Interest comparison with...

I don’t disagree, and the evidence suggest that in 2016, Bernie would have beaten Trump handily. Ultimately, we’ll never know as it never came to pass. The left in the USA, and to lesser degree in the UK too, has moved away from economic issues and attached itself to cultural issues. In my...
