    What needs to happen

    This is my worry with King. I can imagine a scenario where we have one coming in on deadline day at the last minute and that's it. King is shrewd and I dont think he will want to spend money on players that arent good enough for the prem, if he thinks we can get there with what we have.

    On the bright side

    We have increased the gap between us and 3rd to 9 points... Think its time to accept Ipswich catching us is a case of when not if, but fortunately the teams below them dont look good enough to put a run together that will challenge us. Also think some of the criticism of rhe players is a bit...

    Painful watch again. We look completely hopeless.

    Strikers

    I wouldnt be sorry to see the back of Simms and Wright tbh whichever division we end up in next season. Theyve both shown flashes but neither of them are capable of sustained performance over a prolonged period. Everyone has bad games and even spells, but both Simms and Wright have periods...

    Still in such a good position though so no need to panic. Doug absolutely needs to spend in January though because if these performances continue we wont finish in the top 2.

    Thank fuck we got in at HT without conceding. Absolutely terrible performance. Ipswich are a good side but we are handing everything to them. All the basics are missing. Hopefully a rocket from Lampard will do the trick like it did against Swansea or else this is only going one way. Oh yeah...

    We might fall away and I have a sneaking suspicion that will happen but its not a case of blowing it. If we do miss out it will be purely because our squad isnt strong enough to maintain the level of performance that our first 11 has demonstrated they are capable of. Considering the level of...

    The ‘wobble’ month

    I think this month actually works in our favour. We've built up a huge lead going into it so couldn't ask to be in a better position. Some very difficult games but so were Stoke, Middlesbrough etc. We will lose at some point but they will be fearing us more than we fear them and id much rather...

    What are your feelings of gordan strachans time as manager here

    Real mixed feelings about Strachan. Fond memories because it's when I starting going to watch games but tarnished by the relegation. At the time and for long after he was vilified but in hindsight most of the damage was done by the people above him. Realistically speaking the club was a basket...
