Lati and Binks are conceded at a rate of 2 per game. Funny how none of the midfield was mentioned and it’s probably the single biggest issue in our team atm, then defence. The forwards, I’m more relaxed about because there’s proven goal scorers in there and genuinely think it’s just a matter...

There will come a day that’ll happen when attendances are sold out week in, week out in the Prem. A few clubs have 3 strike rules. I know Man U have a policy where you have to buy all home cup matches (including Europe) and if you don’t scan the ticket nor sell the ticket back to the club for...

I’m running late because I heavily procrastinated coming tonight - cold, wet and we’re playing shite. Feels like I’m getting up for work not going to watch the City!

Sheaf was captain last season and nothing was wrong there. He made his first start at the weekend. Outside of that, yes there is a lack of leaders.

We had Vik and Hamer the year we nearly went up. Two players who were arguably the 2 best players in the division that season. AV and MR made a great connection but it was plain sailing at the start. Especially in the L2 and L1 days.

If we going to be ridiculous, why not go for Pep if we sack Robins? 😂

An issue with both Rishi Sunak and indeed Keir Starmer is that they’re both inexperienced and overpromoted in their short careers. Both of them only became MPs in 2015.

I just think we need to give these things a bit more time. Robins seems to have picked this coaching unit and he will find a way to make this work. It should be an eye-opener that there are many areas we need to strengthen to compete at the top of this division. Despite the early hype going...

A promotion, better pay and potentially being closer to home, correct? If so, was there anything the club could have done to keep him? Managers and coaches are like players, there’s plenty of talent out there so there’s no point in fixating on old personnel.

Agreed, we’ve been here before and things turned out alright. Of course, this doesn’t guarantee our form will pick up, it’s a cause for optimism that MR will turn it around. On hand, you’ve got people saying AV leaving is a cause of things going badly, conveniently ignoring our bad form in...

We’re still early in the season so despite the bad performances, there’s plenty of time to turn things around.

It was a bag of wank today!

Free agents - we tried and failed (Browne) and at this stage all of the good ones have been signed up. James would be a logical signing imo, but it’s not a game changer as he’d still be 4/5th choice. Loan market - what Prem team would loan a promising youngster to be 3rd or 4th choice for us...

Man, if only the club thought of that…

We didn’t have the chance on deadline day. By all accounts, there was activity on and leading up to deadline day but couldn’t get a deal over the line. It’s no good panicking, getting desperate and signing any dick, Tom or Harry to fill a need. That’s how you end up either paying over the odds...

Palmer forced a move, it was out of the clubs hands. We’ll have to make do until Jan-Feb - it’s not that big a deal.

Players will have to play through some fatigue throughout the stadium. Football is a contact sport and injuries are part and parcel of the game, unfortunately. It’s unlikely that Allen’s contract gets renewed past this season. He’s been a good servant but his injury record is getting worse and...

Agreed, the money was fronted and the deal was ready to be signed. If anything, it’s the recruitment team for failing to identify on targets that MR would sign off on.

I remember the days in preseason when Allen, Eccles, Torp and Sheaf was enough depth… Going into match 10 and we’re down to Eccles and Torp only. It was always a risk given Allen, Torp (last season) and Sheaf’s injury records. In fact, Allen probably has a worse injury record than Sheaf.

Cap cheat hall of shame! 😂
