    Romain Vincelot

    We should and the first person we should get to grow a beard is Joy Seppala and then try and have a go with the youth team and see if any of them are able to manage it.

    Benik Afobe

    I think we should all sit by Hadji on Saturday and shout Benik Afobe at him all game long!

    That's the spirit. Best season since God knows when and so much to be happy about! We are going to be top 6 at least I'm sure! I'm absolutely loving this season. All positive for me!

    Exactly. A loss would have been a body blow. A draw was not. I'm just as confident as I ever was, if not more so. We have a fantastic chance of top 2 and need to put things in perspective. Look at the back four we're fielding, yet last night we reduced Walsall to barely a chance on goal. Just...

    Yep! Absolutely ridiculous! Of course we have a fantastic chance for top 2. There's still 20 games to go. We beat Burton on Saturday and we will go above them. We are still right in this. The only team in all the leagues to be unbeaten at home, the top goalscorer in this division and TM still...

    Crazy. You would think people are just not enjoying this season, despite the fact that it's our best in many a year. I'm really enjoying it all and am quite happy about last night. We should have killed the game off, yes, but we looked a class act in that first half, maintained our unbeaten run...

    Joe Cole

    I was a bit surprised we didn't make substituions earlier, as we were beginning to tire and Walsall brought 3 sets of fresh legs on. The conditions were heavy with all that rain and it certainly took its toll.

    John Fleck

    From a business point of view though, if he's out of contract and will be gone in the summer anyway, then if we can get a fee it will be considered. All about replacing him with someone who can fill those boots in that scenario.

    Joe Cole

    TM has said Maddison will start on Saturday, so if Cole and Hunt were to play then we would have to drop either Murphy or JOB, both of which looked very tired second half.

    Where did you hear this from, ferret?

    John Fleck

    Only thing is, can we get an adequate replacement for him. If TM thinks he can do that then that will obviously have some bearing on the decision.

    We have had no luck at centre back at all. First we lost Willis, then Reda, then Turner, then Martin. If Stokes becomes another casualty I think we can put it down to a curse. Really been so unlucky and the thing is, though Stokes has been brilliant at centre back, we have really missed him at...

    Joe Cole

    He tired very quickly though. Looked brilliant in the first half, but slowed down considerably as the game wore on.

    Chris Stokes

    Vincelot played well but made a couple of mistakes, whereas, besides stepping on the ball early on and nearly losing possession, Stokes was outstanding. My player of the match for sure.

    Yeah! Besides scoring and having loads of assists, he nearly always chooses the wrong option! It's a bit like 'what have the Romans ever done for us' I think.

    Agree. First half we totally dominated and looked very much an automatic promotion placed side. We ran out if steam second half (ring rusty?), but even then we came back and had a 10 minute period where we dominated and had 3 good opportunities to kill the game. I am more confident too. Hunt...

    Well yep, totally agree. 2 or 3 wins in a row and the whole picture changes. Not going to say we will do that, but that's a possibilty for any of the top teams. We nearly won again tonight. Don't get all the gloom and doom at all. We were dominant and should have killed the game off. We didn't...

    Exactly! Knee jerk reaction and way off the mark. We deserved a point, we are still right in it. Look at our back four tonight! Let's give TM chance to bring players in like he has promised. Could make all the difference.

    Surely not. You can fly to Sweden in 2 hours, unless someone is coming over by pedalo.
