Ostigard crossed the ball in for the equaliser and is our main threat set-pieces. But, of course you’re right, this is shocking management.

He played well in the first half against Cardiff too where we actively looked for him in the first 20m. I don’t think Shipley is a standout performer, and some of his misplaced passes irk me all a be all, he does an ok job. He’s always had his boo boys - people were questioning if he was good...

Defensively, Kelly is the anchor of 3 CMs and we have two wide players, 1 striker and the back 4. It’s very clearly 4-5-1. Attacking wise, it’s more fluid because of the things you outline, but Kelly is almost always deeper than everyone else. Jobello and Giles will start on the wings...

I do think we’re good enough to survive. We were conceding soft goals despite the quality of opposition. Objectively speaking, we’ve tightened things up defensively and this is a priority if we’re to survive. Even if it is a stopgap. Derby have sacked their manager, and have some good...

I agree, it’s clearly a 4-5-1. Kelly very clearly plays behind Shipley and Hamer last night and Sheaf & Hamer v Norwich. Giles has been a winger and midfielder most of his career. Wolves want him played as a WB since that is the system that played (until recently). The CBs look comfortable, a...

Happy with to snatch a draw! Hamer is proving he is just box office! 1st half, we were the better team. 2nd half, Derby were the better team.

Agreed. That said, I managed to get Nottingham Forest for free - I don’t know if this was on purpose.

You probably wouldn’t see Bright do that in the Championship. Hence, 2 appearances for Wigan last time around and he’s now on trial at P’boro and not on trial at a Championship club.

There’s a reason Bright’s career has nosedived after he left us. He was a great player for us, but it’s clear he took the piss and got away with it because he was the best player on the pitch for us. This is not the player you want involved in a relegation scrap. Besides, he’s barely kicked a...

Two players at different stages of their careers. Hyam was brought in with development in mind, and his development has been perfect. Got his foot in the door with injuries but hasn’t looked back at all. Kudos to the recruitment team! The only bad game I’ve seen Hyam play is that 6-2 loss...

In the past, I’ve not had the option to change commentary to the away team. Probably a web browser issue. You come across some really biased commentary. I don’t think CWR is as bad compared to the others.

Ben Wilson reckons the ref went ‘ohhh’ when he chatted with him after the match. Suggesting, in his words, he thought about apologising to him about the mistake. Had we lost that game, we’d have every right to have been livid with that decision.

They didn’t outplay us at home. We struggled a bit in the first 15-25 minutes, but from then on we were the better side and should have won. New league, new players and so on. Without a ball being kicked, I’d be happy with a draw in this game too.

I’d return to the side we played against Cardiff, with a 4-5-1 against Derby, assuming Godden is not fit. I’d consider playing COH over Shipley (out wide) or Sheaf (centrally, he’s probably due a breather). If Godden is fully fit again, 5-3-2 could a good option. The likelihood is that Godden...

I think repetition isn’t necessarily a bad thing! Generally, I prefer to mix and match beers. However, when you find that a beer that tastes nice, you want to stick with it for a bit. For me, whenever I go to a pub, and they have either Moretti or Hop House on tap, that’s what I’ll be drinking...

Robins said Baka did well. Frankly, he didn't do too bad and the reality is that Baka and Biamou are 3rd/4th choice strikers and when Godden is match fit, Walker and Godden will either be starting together, or battling it out between them.

Equally, we had only lost twice away from home before we beat Wycombe, and a lot of our away games were against the top half too. Our 'home' form has been mid table so far. If we can keep this up, and improve the away form, we could find ourselves around 16th-13th with a bit of breathing space...

He took his goal well, and I'm happy for him. I'm sure Baka and Biamou will add some value despite their limitations, but Godden and Walker are strikers we can rely on and build a squad around. Frankly, this applies to more player than Biamou and Baka, but if we stay up, we're going to have to...

I joined Beer 52, which is more 'up market'. In terms of value, it appears Flavourly beats Beer 52. If you're after niche beers and plenty of choice, apparently Beer 52 is the way to go. Personally, I'm only still with Beer 52 because I've had a lot discounts and I've been given a load of...

We really need to notch up our first away win of the season against Derby or Wycombe, to be honest. I'm confident we can win both, hopefully.
