    Early season thoughts about Championship

    Of the 5 opposing outfits so far this season I thought Reading were the worst, followed by Barnsley. Forest were all right, against us at least, but QPR looked fairly impressive when they moved up a gear in the second half on Saturday. I missed most of the Blackpool game because of children and...

    Reading manager and the 8 minutes

    That emoticon is incredible! As an onlooker I stand impotently by, arms flailing, while a new language develops. How far will it go?

    We probably got away with a couple of fouls in the first half which wound them up a bit

    Match Thread Barnsley Away Match Thread

    It was a very even first half, with Barnsley scoring a good goal out of nowhere. The second half was us attacking but not creating many real chances and Barnsley using every trick in the book to stop us. 8 yellow cards only because the ref was lenient. O'Hare bore the brunt of it obviously, but...

    Terrible penalty kick by Gyokeres - karmic comeback for last week? It's been a long time since I've seen a dirtier team than Barnsley. Persistent fouling and gamesmanship from the moment they scored. A pity, as I warmed to them slightly last season. That said, we didn't create many clear...

    Bong banned

    Dacosta trod on the back of Mighten's right calf after an aerial challenge. I think it was more clumsiness than anything but it looked awful when you saw his leg buckle in the slo-mo replays. I wondered at the time if the ref wasn't evening out the fouls by not giving the slap on O'Hare soon after.

    TLS - Forest Report

    Didn't find the first half depressing either. Forest outplayed us and deserved their lead but it was a surprisingly decent game of football and it felt like the right changes at half-time (Dacosta off, Dabo shifted was just the ticket) could get us back into things. Not really a 'toilet match'...

    Match Thread Nottingham Forest (H)

    AMAZING Forest went off it in the 2nd and we stepped up Jodi Jones got a half hour and looked fine I would have taken a draw but O'Hare got fouled AGAIN and this time the free-kick led to a goal That'll teach the Trees after last season's two muggings

    England win Euros or Sky Blues get promoted to Premier League?

    I voted for the England win because I don't want us to go up into the moneyball league and lose 0-4 every two weeks - I'm happier in the Championship Tough though tonight, sitting in a pub in France with 90% of the kids against England as per usual

    New kit information

    The L1 kit has been my favourite Hummel one so far. Last season's I didn't like at all at first, but it grew on me over the season. I admire its bravery now. This new one... don't like old-style round collars much and it's a bit boring compared to the last two. Still, no big deal, it's fine and...

    Bright

    Kelly knocking it to Sheaf (or Shipley or James) who tries to get it back to Hyam who immediately checks back inside and turns it back to the 'keeper. If we saw that once we saw it a thousand times last season. Still, we stayed up so fair enough I guess.

    New kit information

    The 11-12 shirt looked better on players than in real life; this one looks better in real life than on the players. Just my two-penn'orth.

    New kit information

    I swears to you, apart from the sponsor's logo, that one did something positive for me that 06-07's heavy fabric curtains with a collar certainly did not.

    New kit information

    I quite liked that one. Didn't like 11-12 much but the worst of recent years for me was 2006-07.
