    Right, I need some help with this today. It looks like I am going to miss the game in person as my partner is (understandably) a little wary re being on her own with a 9 day old baby who has decided to become very fussy the last 2 days! Last time I tried this for a Saturday game, I couldn't...

    I appreciate it does sound harsh based on his stats, but again (and it’s a genuine question) can you remember him doing much in games? A CM in a three cant be a passenger for chunks of the game. And again, before anyone misinterprets, I like Westbrooke but if Walsh is as good as reported...

    I agree re Westbrookes attributes and I mentioned that in my original post. In fact I even championed him last season. I like players who recycle the ball and aren’t necessarily spectacular. I even liked Clingan.... However, if we have someone on the bench who can recycle the ball well and add...

    As per my previous post; that’s an impressive stat but can you remember him in any of the games so far? You can’t get away with relying on scoring/assisting and then doing not much else when playing in a midfield three. I like Westbrooke, he has good attributes and will improve but if Walsh is...

    I agree re O’Hare’s runs from midfield, but he’s almost the victim of his own flexibility as he can play out wide whereas the other CM’s can’t. I’ve always liked Hiwula and I accept he’s had a poor start - however I’d still put him ahead of Jobello as we at least know Hiwula can perform (and...

    MR likes to stick with a winning team (which I respect), but last week we didn’t win and were absolutely nowhere near the levels we need to be, so he has a justified reason for changing the team. I’d play: Marosi Dabo Hyam McFadzean Mason Walsh Kelly Shipley O’Hare Godden Hiwula Harsh on...

    I really want to qualify and get as far in this competition as we can - we absolutely can win it again. We have a big squad for L1, so we can cope with extra games. I’d go: Wilson Watson Williams McFadzean McCallum Westbrooke Eccles Walsh Jobello Biamou Bapaga McCallum needs game time...

    Transfer Rumour Liam Walsh season loan

    Really highly rated and a very good footballer at this level. Another MR under the radar signing, which is great. Even before this one I was wondering if MR was tempted to return to 4-2-3-2, with O’Hare 10 and Kelly/Allen (Shipley while Allen is out) as the 2. Walsh could easily fit into the 2...

    Have you got iFollow working with Chromecast? I don’t get the icon to cast for some reason?

    Just like the Portsmouth game; everyone is keen to big up Oxford, but let’s not forget we are a very strong team. They have Ben Woodburn, so? They might be saying the same about our £750,000 proven goal scorer, or the ‘wonderkid’ we signed from Villa. We’re on form, and despite Watford...

    With a five day old baby there’s no chance I’m making the game today, so I’m going to try this again. Last time out (Portsmouth game) it was a nightmare. It wouldn’t cast from my iPad (once it actually let me sign in) and my hdmi adapter decided not to work, I then couldn’t stream from my...

    My partner wants her first ‘proper’ glass of wine tonight, so it’ll be the Tommy Tippee machine to the rescue for the night feed! Still, cheap night for me, one large glass and she’ll be done!

    There is definitely a strong push towards breastfeeding and I understand the benefits, but as you say it’s difficult and a lot of people can’t for a reason. We’re doing the same re expressing when it’s too painful and even the odd formula during the night if there’s no other options. She seems...

    Thanks again everyone, I do really appreciate the well wishes, kind words and advice. Plus it’s put this forum in the good books with my partner, so when I’m on it in future I wont get the same moaning as before! The breastfeeding is the most stressful bit so far, and I really feel for my...

    First night was fun, I’d say I had about three 20 minute naps and that was it! She’s a little attention seeker already - if she’s awake she wants to be cuddled!

    Thanks for the congratulations and advice everyone - really caring and much appreciated. Looking after the mother has definitely already kicked in (not that I mind really); I’ve been all over the place getting food, drinks and various items from home we forgot. She came two weeks early and...
