Still far too early to judge our business over the summer in my opinion. Ifs and buts I know, but had we sneaked the win on Sunday (which could easily have happened) then I expect everyone would be reasonably content. Let's face it, we'll battle away at Chelsea this weekend, probably lose, then have to sit through the international break just above/below the relegation line. As many have stated, it's the next set of fixtures that are pivotal. We could win any/all of those 4 games and be in a much healthier position come the next international break with Norwich awaiting after that. I'll be passing my personal judgment on where we are then as I think 10 games is a reasonable run to get things right...

Was Ralph wearing the waistcoat? If so then he’s fast running out of options. Never fancied us today, Wolves have far more talent upfront than us. I basically feel we’re in this microcosm Premier League with Newcastle, Norwich, Watford and maybe one or two more. It’s not looking good really...

I never said I expected us to extend it any further 😃

Well I guess the positive is 2 1/2 PL games without conceding now. Christ knows when we last managed that!

It may simply be the new underpants I’m wearing today, but I think Redmond is going to have a stormer!

Yeah, VVDs debut for us was away to West Brom (0-0) and it was pretty clear from that display that he was class. I think the Man Utd. game was his home debut, but that was one of only a few games in his entire career for us where he looked anything other than brilliant (well, until he completely gave up trying at the end).

Looking forward to seeing Lyanco develop his game, I reckon he could turn out alright if he works hard at it. I remember one of VVD's first games for us was at home to Man Utd. and he got taught a bit of lesson that day. Not saying Lyanco will ever get near his level, and I know Sheffield Utd. are hardly the Galacticos, but can recall a few questioning whether he was a good signing after that game. The club must think there's something there.

Haha you're right, sorry @doc oli 🙃

4th pen taker 😛

Yes!!!!! 😇

2 clean sheets in a row, we may be onto something!

Well all know how devastating Redmond, sorry Henry, is against City...

Didn’t we draw 0-0 with West Ham last season too?

A clean sheet!!! Pleased with that, we appear to have a bit of spunk about us at the moment.

I've got the hardback and will launch into it in the near future. I'm keen to know more about his approach to completing his fitness challenges as much as reading about his Saints career.

To be fair, that picture sort of transcends events since it happened. That's Ings' legacy right there so be thankful that it happened 🙂

We can only hope and pray for a last-minute Danso-esque signing!

Could do both a la Cantona!

Dodged a bullet there. Pretty pissed overall but at least my night isn’t ruined.

3 points up for grabs here guys!

Surely a time to put Broja on and mix it up?

Feeling unhealthily optimistic today!

I hear you. Put it this way though, this is a much better scenario than we've faced in recent years. Look how much we lost on 'The Unsellables'!

The buyback could be £10m and it would still be a good news story for us. We've got a highly capable player that will make us better for at least one season. We can then let him go for a massive profit. I know not everyone likes our way of doing things, but our work this summer is putting us back on the map as one of THE best destinations for emerging talent.

I’d eight to be a Newport fan right now!
