Would have preferred Sakamoto tbh, Ayari looks low on confidence and we don’t want someone hiding today. Bags of talent though.

Thomas is either Bambi or Messi (and normally the former). Not sure if it’s overconfidence or he’s still working out the Championship.

Wharton is very very good, I’m sure he’s being watched by many, but would be a statement signing in Jan.

Wouldn’t be surprised to see MR revert to his default tactics of a disciplined and steady first half, followed by unleashing the hand brake (at least a little) second half. Really hoping Simms scores again; you can see him visibly growing in confidence which is a good thing for us.

Going to be cutting it fine later so it’s likely a Tesco job. Anyone been caught out with a fine yet this year?

In a very different style to Gyokeres, I think he’ll be our next big money sale (unless we get promoted in the meantime of course). He showed last year he’s a goal scorer, he showed us in pre season he can score here, and then hit a little confidence blip coupled with not being match fit (as...

Either I’ve lost the plot or it’s the novelty of being at the CBS for a few days for a work event, but I’ve just purchased the equality training shirt. I actually really like it, although tbf my fashion sense is a little ropey at the best of times - or so I’m told.

Anyone got a working stream?

Did we get to the bottom of who it was? Based on comments/likes; Bidwell and Thomas? If the former then good to see he is passionate about us despite being dropped through no fault of his own.

Yep - absolutely this. Eccles or Kelly alongside Hamer, Sheaf or a player who has the insight to play forward and create and it’s absolutely fine. Them together, with an anonymous 10 and an off form strike force is a disaster, but not of their own making.

I hate some of the bed wetting that happens on here, but, as I said on the match thread, unfortunately there’s some substance to it now. We have no playing style at all, made worse by the fact we have no get out of jail cards like we did last year with Hamer and Gyokeres. The team seems to be...

This place is going to be horrendous tonight, and for the first time in a long long time there’s some substance to it. We look absolutely bang average at best. Another game with very few positives. And the one positive we had was taken off.

I know we’re offering sod all excitement but the atmosphere is pretty poor as well. It’s all a bit different to last year hey.

I don’t want to be one of those people, but that midfield is very L1. By no means saying they can’t do a job, but the teams creatively level has gone from about 4/10 to 2/10.

Please don’t take off Simms, he’s playing well and it’ll hit his confidence too.

Improvement from last game with more to come I think. Sakamoto again looks lively but I’m not convinced by him at RWB. Simms looks more fired up today and is showing exactly why he can be a handful. A win is always good, but the team looks in need of a confidence boost so let’s hope we hold on.

Would love him to still be here, he’s a game changer and the second half of last season the impact he had was immense. We absolutely miss that player this year. However, petty as it might sound I still feel bitter re the way he left. I wish him well, I’d take him back, but I think the way he...

Is it? It has Ayari and Saka both starting so giving us more attacking impetus that an off form Palmer and sideways CM pairing. Downside is Kelly over Eccles, but with no replacement RWB it is what it is. While still relatively unknown quantities, Saka and Ayari are not bottom 6 club players...

Needs a shake up and if Robins wants to play at a higher tempo then we need more forward thinking players on the pitch. Not sure the clamour to get Kitching in - other than the fact we paid for him. Binks has looked decent and Kitching looked ponderous on Tuesday (accepting it was only a 20...

No offence intended, but this is as bad as the ‘we need an upgrade on Sheaf’ take that was doing the rounds pre injury.
