Not many showing on my tv

Eh? There are loads.

More than can be explained by ST holders not turning up etc. Clearly not sold the 9,500 tickets available which is surprising.

Good support from WBA mind, looks like they’ve sold the end

V good game. High intensity, skill and goals. Think we may struggle against these two.

What do you think to the two sides? Both have played at a very high tempo but have some decent players too. Mowatt is a great player

To be fair we did well against some of the fancied sides last season. People tend to forget that we can match most teams on our day

 

[skybluegod]

Bournemouth look good, but the strength of their team beyond their first team is pretty weak. A real lack of strength in depth. For their sake I hope they make some more signings soon.

Think they’ve got a few out injured haven’t they? West Brom’s bench is bare too

On our day yes but we did struggle both games v Bournemouth.

The second game where we got beat 4-1 I think we actually played well. The score line flattered them but they just outclassed us on the day. We weren’t outclassed that often though

That is true. We competed well in most games

That Danjuma destroyed us that day. He was the standout player and clearly a level above this league

Not really surprisingly! I thought that too, They do have a couple out injured but then I looked at their club website, and it really is paper thin their squad. Even tonight they had 3 academy players making their full debuts (did well to be fair to them!)

That Kilkenny looked a player in midfield

Very good match to open the championship season. Both teams looked to go for it and had a bit of class about them. Hopefully more of the same on Sunday but with a Cov win of cause

First game against Bournemouth I was in shell shock. It looked like men vs boys. I thought we were in for a right pasting, luckily they were the only side that made us look that bad last season.

We played the first game early in the season when we were still adjusting to the league. We didn’t show much belief in a lot of those early games

Are they still shithousing?

 

[Legia Sky Blue]

He might start if Robins doesn’t think both Hyam and Rose aren’t fit enough to play a full game?

Looks to me that Drydsale has moved ahead of Pask in the pecking order.

Apparently he was injured for the wolves game so that might not be true. He was involved throughout pre-season so we may just have to wait and see on him.

Not sure about that
Pask got a bad cut on his knee in pre-season so has been out of action
There was a story about him being told to look for another club but MR has changed his mind about players in the past
The jury is out on this at the moment but it wouldn't make sense to let Pask move unless we have cover
Drysdale has looked good on some occasions but can be clumsy and impetuous on others

 

[Skybluefaz]

Drysdale is nowhere near up to being a Championship Centre Back at the moment and I really don't think he ever will be. Bloody wish the game was today would be much easier for a few drinks after.

needs another loan wouldn’t mind another back at Cambridge now in L1 but he wasn’t exactly instrumental for them.

Skyblue Sam cannot give high fives.
He’s an elephant. He has no hands for f#ck sake.

MIght not have the opportunity if the directive to refs is to let the game flow and permit more of a contact sport, as appeared to be the case on last night's showing. Might have just have been this ref, but I really hope it's the case. And if it is, Swansea are fucked.

And the mask is going to be awkward

He is linked with Liverpool at the moment

Nah, it's cos he's too fat to lift his arms (front legs?) up.

I posted on here a few months ago I was hoping he would go to MK Dons under Russell Martin. That ship has now sailed

 

[ccfcmad1]

Seems to of been a bit of a uptake in sales from yesterday going from block 23 to behind the goal hopefully more sold today and a decent walk up should see seats available prety much sold

 

[hitmanhearns]

How many sold in total right now you reckon?

I may be way off im sure I'll be shot down if so, but I'd say has to be around 16k cov as it stands

 

[matesx]

Need behind the goal to fill up. Pretty sparse as it stands.

Yep thought blocks 28-30 would be busier.
Hopefully in time it can become another singers corner/West end
