I hope I’m wrong but we don’t look fit enough to compete . I know we have been down to 10 men but the pace in this league is too fast . Just hope it’s early teething and we pick up the the pace very soon . Onwards and upwards . PUSB

We are playing catch up, 6 months without a competitive game v 2 months max. Add to that injuries and then silly suspensions, we look like we are struggling, obviously we are but it isnt as bad as results suggest. We were worthy of at least a point against Bristol, we should have been 2-3 goals up at half time, probably deserved all three against Swansea and until the sending off Saturday were very much in the game.

I think men v boys is a bit dramatic given the circumstances, if you take into account the expectations of the teams we have played versus our own expectations for the season, even just there relative league positions, we couldnt expect a lot more than we have now, Blackburn, Brentford, Bournemouth and swansea all expected to be there or there abouts come the end of the season, we possibly should of beaten two of themand had a crazy sending off that totally ruined the Blackburn game for us.

We started off months behind in the match fitness stakes and it shows although it is obvious we are improving that, new players taking time to adapt, injuries, it all adds up. With a fully fit squad, suspension free I think we can make a game of it with most teams in this league. I wont start panicking or worrying that we are way out of our depth till xmas time when we have played for a few months with a fully fit first pick first team (if we ever get there), something we havnt been able to do as of yet, then, when the best eleven are failing i`ll be bothered or screaming men v boys or we are shit or WTF sort it out Robins\taxi for Robins

As of now im dissapointed with the results, maybe with one or two players individual performances letting them and us down, but there are still 39 games and 117pts to be won, it can only get better from here and lets hope by xmas................
