Sheaf Saint

Otherwise known as the Saganowski approach. Brilliant and unplayable while on loan, but fell to absolute shit the moment he signed a permanent contract.

That's really positive. I was expecting him to be out for longer.

Very impressive full debut from the lad. He seems untainted by Russball and the shit show of last season, so it's really encouraging to see him actually trying to get the ball forward instead of always looking for the safe, backwards or sideways pass.

While I'm still far from convinced by Eckert, today's performance shows beyond any doubt just how utterly shit Will Still's management and coaching was. We looked like a proper team today, and what's even more telling is that the substitutions, unlike under Still, didn't completely wreck our shape and game plan and leave us fighting a desperate rearguard action. Just further evidence of terrible judgement on the part of Spors/SR for hiring him in the first place.

He could, but I honestly don't think he will stick around long enough for that to happen. If he keeps up his current form we will be getting some serious bids in for him next summer (or possibly even in January), of the kind that would be very hard for SR to turn down.

The ref started pointing to the corner then changed his mind!

Cov winning now.

Baz doing Baz things.

How's that not a foul?

So brave.

Ok so the marking was terrible and the blame overall lies with the defenders (Stephens in particular) for allowing a free header. But, once again, you find yourself wondering if a keeper with better reactions could have saved it, because as always the ball has pretty much already gone past Baz before he even moved.

I think we've got so used to complaining that today's performance has thrown some people completely and they're just posting negative comments like this out of habit.

How the fuck is that a foul? This ref is a bit shit isn't he.

Oh well. She can always get a job at McDonalds.
