Ooh Stewart nearly scored a fluke

Not a bad start from us, Sheff Utd look like they're playing counter attacking style. Fellows looking lively.

I hope they don't Cotton on to our tactics too quickly

Did the Prediction Wheel, can't link it. Prediction was a 2 goal win for Sheff United. Big Whoop. Need to win soon, draws aren't getting us anywhere fast. Big couple of games for Will.

JWP will be on the move in January I reckon. Big call from Nuno not just to bench him but drop him. Maybe he can make his family happy and join the Skates in the not so distant future.

Personally had him down to go to the WC next summer as one of England's left backs. Hope it isn't too serious for his sake.

Apologies for the lack of Prediction Wheel for today's game, I'm in the middle of running the Chelsea game at Fulham Broadway. Normal service will resume next week. 😁

This - and there are 40 games to go - and no League cup run to get in the way. And a January transfer window should we need it. Granted the sooner we click the better, but there's a butt load of time to make up the deficit. We started slowly but as long as we finish strongly, we'll be fine. Beating Boro would be a huge 3 points though, both in table terms and for confidence.

Dog shite, but only if I'm wearing someone else's galoshes. God knows what the starting line up will be. I reckon we'll largely stick with the team that started against Hull and not Liverpool, despite getting thrashed in the former and playing well in the latter.

Personally I'd quite like to go back 10 years.

We'll win this on pens. (I don't believe that, but if it does happen I can edit this bit and look like a genius)

Interesting last few minutes on my TV. Peter Beale just scored himself a burlesque dancer, Zoe Slater had some beef with Sharon and Jack and Ravi got away with planting the gun on some bad guy. Riveting. Wait am I on the wrong channel?

There's always George Long lads. 😁

Why can't we sign a decent keeper ffs. Solid performance before that.

Screen_Recording_20250922_235153_Samsung Internet.mp4 Well that's a surprise. Not.

Too early but if we don't win, say, 3 of the next 6 to the end of October at the very least, I will probably change my mind. That's Boro, Sheffield United, Derby, Swansea, Bristol City and Blackburn. Clubs that pre-season we should have had expectations of beating and now they worry me.

Liverpool have back up players like Mamardashvilli, Bradley, Gomez, Endo, Robertson, Chiesa, Ngumoha and even Isak, who is looking to get his season started and we all know who that could be against. Whether or not they'll all play, but even those 8 could probably beat our best 11 right now. I'd play Jay instead of Fraser, Archer instead of Downs, Jelert instead of Manning and Quarshie instead of Jack... but that's why I'm not the manager.

Well bugger me, the wheel gets it right for a second time this season. Just a shame the "right" result was the "wrong" result for Saints. It will be back for the Liverpool game once I've had time to scold it and tell it that it's a naughty boy.

While I'm not advocating a change of manager just yet, if we do go down the managerial sacking route I'd be interested in Sean Dyche. We like a ginger manager and he'd at least sort the defence out.

To be fair, some of our best years in recent times came after we dropped into League One so...

😁

I'm reading KUMB to make myself feel better. Good old West Ham, a Central Midfield made in Southampton.

Just wow. We just haven't got started this season. What's Russ up to these days? 😁

I'm not even following this due to work and yet even I know this is a big second half coming up for Will. 😬
