Hope I’m wrong but those subs are mental. Two creative players off for a hard working box to box and a poacher? Just Allen for Palmer would have been ok, but now a change in shape and loss of creativity isn’t ideal.

We’re playing good football. It’s going to be frustrating at times, but we have good footballers who want to play the ball and move. I’m fine with it, as ultimately it will come off and we need that intricate play to break them down.

Disappointing first half but we aren’t playing badly. Wigan are doing a great job of shutting down space around their box so our movement needs to be a step up to break them down. We’re dominating the ball but sort of going through the motions, we need to raise the tempo and pace on and off the...

Can’t really moan as I did find the stream, but why is it bloody away comms!!

He didn’t as you say, but that isn’t a yellow. He seems to pick up an unfair amount of bookings - he really isn’t that sort of player.

Not going to be home until after KO so watching on my phone to start and it’s a ballache to mess about with the VPN. I’ve got a ST too so I don’t feel guilty if I find a free stream!

Strong chance I’m going to miss tonight as I’m not even home yet. Just had a quick look and it’s not on hesgoal. Any other suggestions? Pissed off I’m missing it as it is, never mind if I can’t find a stream!

That front five is incredibly strong. We aren’t the CCFC of old, no way we’re losing today. 3-0, Gyokeres, Palmer, Hamer.

To the OP’s main statement; he’s definitely the best all round striker in recent history. King, Best etc were good, but neither could single handedly change a game or worry a defence like Gyokeres. He will be an absolutely huge loss if he goes in January. Especially those games where we sit in...

Finally getting a chance to comment over 24 hours after the game! Still feel just as high though. It really was a fantastic result and we’re showing ourselves to be the good team many of us know we are. We’re putting ourselves in a great position heading into the break and there’s no reason to...

I don’t even have Twitter but I’ve seen/heard a few mentions of #kissgate today, to the point that seeing it mentioned on here prompted me to have a look….. Some very funny, yet (sort of) cruel stuff with a brave but quite sad ending!

No reason we can’t come away with at least a draw. I understand the calls to rest players but points and momentum are more important. With the (ridiculous) WC so close too, we have more time for the players to recover after this run of games in quick succession. Team should stay the same...

Things may have moved on again - not had a chance to speak to them. But I’m clinging onto any hope as it stands!!

First chance to try and catch up and this thread has moved on significantly since last night! Cannot read it all but from last page or so it looks as though Ashley is favourite. Not enamoured by MA being the preferred bidder. Separation of club and stadium is the same mess we are in now. Any...

Absolutely fantastic performance - no weak links tonight. Every player played their part, with a few absolute stand outs. First half we showed we’re clearly capable of being a footballing team and playing exciting football on the front foot. Second half we showed we can revert to the more...

Admin is a good thing for SISU. Initial deal speculated could be back on. Apparently there are 8 bids ready to go. How well SISU fare depends on who they choose to partner with… Could we somehow see an Ashley/SISU partnership? Doubt it, but it seems confirmed admin has opened doors again!

Really strong half, everyone has done their part. My only concern; when does the sting come? When do Blackburn start playing?! In all seriousness, offensively we shouldn’t be surprised we have five very good footballers and a worker. Plus two of the back three are comfortable on the ball, as is...

Very positive start. We need to follow in on shots as their keeper has parried them all so far.

Biggest shitter of the night; finished late and was in such a rush to make food and drinks at the pub, I forgot my glasses. So unless it’s obvious I’ll struggle to make individuals out. Probably how Clive feels every week.

This is exactly the night where we pull of an unexpected victory. We have to cling to that hope, especially with that defence, even if it was enforced. Only questionable one is keeping faith in Wilson.
