If Saddlebrains is right, and he always is on line-ups, this is exciting. JDS, BTA and Lati weren't great last time out so good to see Bidwell and Tats back in and EMC starting. I just hope we can get them in advanced positions and hit the channels, they could do a lot of damage against these I...

Fair point. I suppose it comes down to definition of 'must'. I uess 'must-win' is short for 'must win if we are going to get enough to points to reach the milestone I have in mind' in this case 6th place. So there are 'must-win' games, but this isn't one of them.

The concept of a game being 'must-win' is a bit like the argument about whether we are 'in a relagation battle'. It's meaningless, just a cliche. We want to win all games and the more we win the better our chances of whatever we're aiming for. Like the relegation battle, everyone is battling to...

Yes this is fair, maybe ‘character’ was the wrong word. I just didn’t like him, maybe it was the association with Chelski, Jose, Oligarchs etc. We are used to that stuff these days but they were the first and it stank. Possibly not his fault but I had a dislike for him and Cole and Terry etc

I’m exactly like Shmee, I didn’t want Robins gone and thought Lampard was a terrible choice. I didn’t like his character when he was a player and viewed managerial career as mediocre. I an willing to admit I was maybe wrong. We have been on an excellent run. Of course it’s possible that Robins...

You've mixed up your 80s advertising slogans, "You can do it if you B&Q it" "Don't just book it, Thomas Cooke it". I am very aware of this as I grew up in the 80s and my name is Thomas Cooke

People moaning about Sakamoto seems odd, from watching on ifollow he seems more invovlved than almost anybody, I thought he had played really well...

It’s odd reading all of this, isn’t a big part of how we have played the fact that our last 2 oppositions are much much better teams than us? This was a second string but th et still had Phillips and Szmodics and Broadhead etc, all above our level. Having a go at Saka and JDS (and Raphael!) for...

We were outplayed that half. 2 errors caused by the fact that we are panicked by Leeds. Right from the start you can see that they are better than us and we feel like we're fighting a losing battle. It would take something spectacular for us not to lose this. Maybe Grimes and Sakamoto can be...

I get this. But isn’t it ok to not want something to happen but then change your mind when it’s not as bad as you feared? I was against the change of manager (not vocally on here) but am warning to it. I think that’s ok x

It's amazing to read how people feel about everything after a couple of league wins. It takes so little to change the outlook. If we lose today there'll be loads of doom and gloom again. I am as guilty as anyone though. I think we are on the up and have started looking at who the teams above us...

TransferMarkt has it as €2.95m which is about £2.5m I guess

Does anyone know how much Thomas-Asante actually cost? When iFollow was stuck on Blackburn commentators on Saturday, one of them said that he cost us in excess of £4m +add-ons. I thought the general feelingwas that is was £2. By the way, their commentary was awful. So much worse than what we...

Anyone else stuck on Blackburn comms on ifollow?

Is it not on iFollow with a VPN?

I have a good feeling about this one. I often say that and it makes no difference to the result. I am not a clairvoyant unfortunately

No real surprises. Bidwell for JDS was fairly obvious despite JDS playing well on Sat. Thomas still rested. Let's hope BTA wants to show off to Blackburn

Isn't it also because he works hard and isn't actually that bad a player, hence the other clubs around us being interested. I thik he can come good and selling him after 6 months would be a mistake...

I feel confident today for some reason. The last couple of games have been ok for parts and we just need thigs to start to click. We need Simms to find some confidence. BTA with him up front is good as he works so hard. Rudoni can change the game. 5 atb is ok for me too. PUSB

Calling a player a c*nt is totally unacceptable. Fans are ridiculous. He had a poor game and hasn't been great but slagging him off like this is not right. I accept he hasn't been good for us but you can't accuse him of not trying, he works really hard. People should reserve their hatred for...
