Not an entire team but a team that had McGrath, Emerson, Kilcline and Peake didn’t take any prisoners.

Ok , so don’t do it any good.

Hilarious. Are we really already talking about Lampard replacements? He’s taken a lop-sided squad to the top of the table in a shoestring.

Yes, but momentum can swing on the smallest of things. The whole point is we are the same outfit that swept teams aside. It’s not half glass full stuff. It’s the reality of where we are although it might seem like that in amongst the chronic bed wetting over a couple of mixed results

I’ve never mentioned desserts.

It was more worrying what they did when we were 13 points clear. Threads prepping for the Prem!

Frankly ridiculous comparison. Why? Cash. We are loss making. We’ve just bought the stadium. There’s no way King can give the amount of cash to Lampard that the owners of the two teams you mention can.

You do realise we’re still top?

Don’t think there has really been one. Fine margins that went for us early arent so much now. If I had to identify one it might be not killing Preston off when 1 up with them down to 10.

Really? Didn’t he set up Eccles goal at QPR? His output is consistently dangerous.

You are completely missing the point. Of course we’re not meant to be happy about our dip in form. But equally we shouldn’t be wailing and moaning about it to the extent we are.

Indeed. All the talk around Xmas about preparing for the prem etc led us to a position where too many thought the job was done. The championship isn’t that league.

Below Boro

I think we’ll finish 2nd

I expected it to be close at the end. Still think it will be. I think we’ll finish 2nd by a point or two. Everyone who knows this league (including Lampard) have been saying it will all tighten up, including during our run at the top.

Why aren’t they above us?? We’re talking about them like they’re global powers. The absolute facts are that we have more points than both. So I don’t really care if they’ve had a point a game over 13 games or whatever. Over the games played so far we’ve got more than them

Look through the league. Every team will have had a similar phase. That’s why we are top of the league. It is inevitable in this division.

Not sure what your point is. We’re top of the league. Did you expect we’d just walk it by 20-30 points?

Esse at least has a bit of confidence about him when we are freezing a bit. Obviously gives us depth and options. As others have said - he’s not really our biggest issue at the moment.

Then you are very naive.
