I’m sure he’ll be relieved as anything that you’ve decided to give him a chance

I think his first touch is missing as well as his fitness. I think he needs more time, which is why Wright started today. Let's hope he can get up and running

I probably wouldn’t pair him with Godden in any case.

Simms frustrating to watch. But he’ll be a slow burner like McNulty.

Give it time ffs! Didn't gyok take time to settle? Lots of new faces in the team. Hamer only just gone.

We know we are short of players, that will change, hopefully this week. Its a decent start to the league.

1Thought van Ewijk was excellent today, hope he’s not out too long. And shows what a difference a couple of weeks can make. Simms seems devoid of confidence, Wright had some stinking finishes today but certainly looks the most dangerous of the three.

That does sum him up perfectly to be fair

Exactly, Van Ewijk looks a different player from the one who played against Leicester.

It's beginning to confirm that some of our buys have been a bit rushed. Dasilva has a mistake in him every game. I'll give Simms more time given his lack of starts in the 2nd half of last season. Saka easily knocked off the ball but more importantly Eccles Cake cannot cover for Gus. I'm surprised that we haven't brought anyone in this week if we had someone lined up

OH FUCK OFF
It's been 3 league games.

An unfortunate narrow loss to the team tipped to win the league, a comfortable 3-0 win against a team who many had down for a good season and a respectable draw on the road. Get a grip.

Slagging off signings after 3 (three) games, mental, entitled childlike response. Almost as draining as the babies who panic over nothing. So tedious I swear it gets worse on here every season.

We looked alright in possession. Neither team had many chances apart from the goal. We switched off there. Heard Oggy blaming Dasilva, but Fadz was looking straight at Yates and just let him move into that area unmarked. Draw was fair, win would’ve been nice.
Side note - Madeley was bloody awful. For both teams. Some very very odd decisions.

Any chance we can get Simms out on a loan in League One to build his confidence.

Don’t be silly he will be fine, he’s a young lad and probably doesn’t help us slating him when he’s trying to find his feet. He will come good

I think that's two points dropped against a mediocre side. We look good when we love the ball quickly but we're pretty predictable if we don't.

A narrow defeat to the money bags and a home win and away draw against teams we will be around. I would say results wise not a bad start
