I thought his previous manager roles he had his brothers as part of the coaching set up, was just interested why that stopped when he came here and must take Will Still some time to get used to working with a new support team

Anyone know why his brothers didn't come with him?

Those players have shown tremendous character. Paid late, no pre season, tiny first team squad, they are putting in big performances and playing well Hopefully they'll lose heart by the time we play them

Fair play @die Mannyschaft looks like a good away day getting a free trip and bet they've got some good stories to tell onboard, will make the other bingo buses jealous

I think it's a valid point, Will Still is very inexperienced so only one way to learn , assume Trollope is part of the set up to add the experience

Wilder is to streetwise to give us space like that, he's good at grinding out 1-0 wins when needed, I'd say 0-0 is a likely scoreline

I saw there was some free travel laid on but only one or two luxury coaches paid for by sponsors Midnite, hopefully they lay on some champagne and strippers to pass the time going up the M1 , let us know who the Saints legend is

Unbelievably bad, and possibly the craziest thing is we've probably sold out for every one of those away days , remarkable

Danny Ings to score , put your house on it

Drew 1-1 at home to Sunderland today, played at Eastleigh with a crowd of 1,367 so a bit less than what they tend to get when playing at St Mary's

I agree there's more to be positive about, change of players showing what they are capable of at Anfield and again on Saturday, my biggest concern is up front Still hasnt decided who best fits his system and between Downs, Stewart and Archer I think none of them will, Archer best finisher but can't hold ball up and bring others into play, Stewart seemed to do that more but then doesn't offer us the goal threat , going to keep trying different combinations I expect

Funny side Sheffield United, came very very close to promotion in the play off final just a few months ago, Selles experiment was a disaster, I only watched on of their games where they were a bit unlucky to lose to Middlesbrough and didn't look bad but they must have been worse in other games. Got a few good players, O'Hare, Hamer and Campbell particularly

I saw that but I don't think it's correct, they never put one of the end blocks on sale, there was about 400 left in block furthest to the left facing the pitch the other morning and by afternoon changed to unavailable, not sure why they'd take them off sale but no way we sold them all in a couple of hours Most likely 2000 up there which is still exceptionally good with costs involved

I'd say Coventry are the best I've seen so far, attack with real intent and are scoring for fun

we've lost to Stoke and were mauled by the tigers, we've failed to beat the Skates or Watford , in the here and now we are where we deserve to be and it's up to Still and the players to show us they can turn it around

I don't think it's that weak, just a number of teams focused on getting the basics right and not over complicating it, doing well because of that. Putting together decent hard working sides on a budget putting to shame clubs like us and Sheffield Utd in receipt of parachute payments and making a complete mess of it.

Need to launch a public inquiry immediately, this should not be possible, I'm sure we were told on here last season it was a matter of time until Derby's record was broken

I agree, Boro fan I know says he's not quick and won't do a lot on his own but can pick a pass and needs good movement around him

Tend to agree but we've already got enough wasters hanging around Staplewood , I'd like to think THB and Stephens will want to prove they can do better (they're not that bad) Look at other players we wrote off like Bree and BBD playing and scoring today

I like to judge things on merit , as shown in the image we currently reside 2 points above the drop zone and rightly so on form. Once the lads find a way to win football matches and move away from the relegation zone we won't have to mention it

Going to be interesting to see how those dropped players react, need them putting performances in to win their place back, hoping no strops and fall outs on the training ground

I think he deserves credit for making those changes, many thought he wouldn't drop Stephens and it was an improvement, problem is it feels like we're starting all over again with a new side needing to gel, massive next two games let's reevaluate after that

Wilder will get Sheff Utd going now, a draw most likely Tuesday I think , Still will not want to look at the table tonight

To be honest it's a relief he can't play against us next week , James Bree also getting a goal today Some big relegation 6 pointers next few days

Predictable result even with unpredictable line up, some good moments, bit of a freak goal to concede. First half I thought Stewart and Azaz looked immobile and Boro gradually realised we had nothing to hit them on the break with. Shame to not win having taken the lead
