I’ve not really noticed to be honest with you. So much has changed in the last 4-5 years, almost all for the better, it’s only when someone else points things out you realise.

I’ve seen 4 or 5 of your comments, all on this thread. Every one of them a moan about something that happened tonight.

Of course he did. You don’t take defeat well do you David?

Furlong was lucky not to get booked after a couple of minutes for kicking the ball away. It seemed a pointless thing to do. He’d have known that it would have riled up the fans on that side and meant he’d have been walking a tightrope for pretty much the entire game. As I said earlier, he seemed...

Didn’t see it. Furlong seemed to be on the wind up from the first minute tonight though. Is there any history between him and you? Usually he’s quite quiet and just goes about his business.

Vinnie moment?

I’ll watch it back tomorrow and if there were 3 stonewall pens missed I’ll pop back and apologise. I didn’t agree with Woolfy getting any stick but since he left he has stirred the pot a bit, firstly with comments about “politics” being the reason he couldn’t get in the team and a few rumours...

Don’t be silly

He is. He’s excellent and getting better with every game. One way or another he’ll be a premier league player next season.

You had an “off” day, we’ve not played as well as that away from home in at least a year. Firstly, yes you probably should have had a penalty. It was at the other end of the pitch and I’ve not seen a replay yet but the consensus among the town fans was that it looked like a penalty. Goals...

Thanks all. Really helpful and a few good options to choose from.

Hi, I’m looking forward to the game on Monday. It should be a good one but I’m coming more in hope than expectation. I’d take a point now. Any car parking recommendations please? Ideally one that means relatively easy access back to the M6 south after the game. I looked on the official website...

January signings will be crucial to you, that’s evident when a couple of injuries at the moment are leaving you short. We were lucky/clever with our signings in both January windows in our back to back promotion seasons. In the year we got to the premier league we made 4 and they played an...

In the summer after we got promoted, Chelsea and Man U were interested. Palace and Brighton both supposedly offered him the managers job. He chose to stay and signed a new 5 year contract - rumours of him earning £100k a week. Right now his stock is relatively low. Relegation and an average...

I get that. At the moment, the majority of our fans would say we’ve over paid on players and bought some very average players for a lot of money. It’s too early to really judge though.. For 8 months Philogene was average at best but whilst he still lacks consistency, he’s had a few games...

I agree, he is/we are. Last season’s effort looks even worse now when you see what Sunderland are doing than it did at the time. However, I still wouldn’t swap McKenna for any other manager in the EFL. It’s too early to judge Lampard or say how effectively he’d spend money if he had it. He’s...

You’d think so but it doesn’t work like that. Our 23/24 team would beat the current one. Sometimes it’s about the right blend and everyone doing their job. It isn’t about transfer fees, reputations and wages. A sizeable minority of our fan base acted as though we’d won the league in July when...

Every clubs got them. We’ve got some absolute weapons who follow our club. Stone Island clad teens who gob off and give it plenty in a group when they know they’re safe but would run a mile at the first sign of them having to actually fight one on one. A few of your fans weren’t that great...

That’s your opinion. I get it, I’m not going to justify a decision I didn’t make. All I can say is that hand on heart I would not have expected your keeper to be sent off for that. If a forward is one on one and the handball is all that stops a clear goal scoring opportunity then fair enough but...

If have been very annoyed with the Hirst decision if one of your players had escaped a second booking for it after what had gone before. It wouldn’t even have occurred to me that your keeper should be sent off for doing what Walton did.
