we're having soe chances to get back into it. But Sunderland will be ready for us passing it around them, and waiting to pounce.

Free kick in deecent position... got a comfortable save...

Defence are just going through the motions. Taking some positions with no purpose and little reaction to the game. A lot coming down the flanks in the gaps left by our fullbacks being forward. That's Martin's tactic.

Points for Baz for being quick. Minus a few for it being a pants header.

Oh Mr Martin... I think your position of the fullbacks in your tactic has been sussed out (it was in the opening games too, but Sunderland able to take full advantage). Still bags of time left to get back into it...

Allowed Sunderland to pass it across, didn;t close down... deflected or am I being kind to Baz?

Oh heck!

I remember games where Sunderland's support take a bit to get get going. When they fell behind it went quiet. But that's not going to be the case today.

Edozie positioning very poor. But then, he's no defender.

CMYR! AA with an early shot. Very fluid options in that front three with Maria supportinng AA, but that might change. We get our usual caught on the break immediately though. And sod...

Meanwhile, it's another lonely night for Jessica. "Why does Lighthouse play so hard to get?" she sobs. "Why is the transfer window more important than me?"

Seemed to sneak out right on the deadline. Fairly quiet in Spanish women's football at the moment, so I wonder what the reaction to this news will be. 🙂

Still, the U21s will be bolstered by having Sully and ABK in it, if no deals go through. 🙂

Agreed. Any player who hasn't been committed in training or helping the group can be brought in, but only after they've earned it. It's not fair on, and disruptive to, those that have got their heads down. And that's hoping that any moans and sulks stop, and they aren't bad influences,moaning about not being first choice, getting "injured" or generally stinking the place out.

No doubt River Casserole-Dish would cook in the Championship. 🙂

Sad to see KWP go, but the new back line of Beinn, Airigh, Charr and Manning is decent for this level. Irish Stu is a direct swap for Scottish Stu, and will do well alongside Downes. Fraser, Warren and Chang supporting goal machine AA. It's going to be a busy time before that window SLAMS shut!

Say "See ya later alligator," to Krokodil.

As if the CoT could be doubted, that hyphen seals the info.

Well, while you wait for that, I will be welcoming River Casserole-Dish to the club to get us those promotion goals!

You'll never be the next Alex Crook with that honesty on deadline day. 🙂

A dream opportunity for fans to be called on to make up the numbers, following deadline day departures. 🙂

Yes. He's definitely not leaving West Ham before the window slams shut.

Just organising a fundraiser to get Pilchards more than 3 posts a day, then we'll know. 🙂

Aribo has played up front, when required.
