The -4 factors into how we might do this season, but there’s absolutely no point in factoring it into judging how we’ve done so far this season.

And there’s the flip side of no VAR.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Allison Never played for them but they were literally his route into professional football.

Ridiculous red card. Bruno’s kicks were far worse than the retaliation, look at the delay before Bruno throws himself to the floor.

Perhaps a tad fortunate to weather that first 15 mins, which owed a fair bit to an excellent save by Peretz and some wasteful finishing, but some excellent finishing of our own got us over the line against a bunch of thugs and one of the worst refs we’ve seen at St Mary’s in recent times, which perhaps isn’t entirely surprising considering he’s a former Bristol City player! Ridiculous he was allowed to ref, but makes it all the sweeter to get this one over the line

Good win, that

Didn’t help ourselves to say the least, really missed Larin’s ability to hold the ball up, but it’s utterly ridiculous that Lincoln finished that match with 11 on the pitch.

How the **** is that cheating **** still on the pitch?

Unbelievable. Still, looks like Lincoln are starting to pay the price for that mad first 20 min press now.

Some goal that!

Slightly disappointing but a real 'could have gone either way' game. At least we're above Pompey!

What a header!

GERRRRRRRRIIIIIN

Wrexham must have been reminded of their first game last season after that

Oh yay. Absolute **** of a ref as usual then.

QPR!

Lincoln!

Probably turns out fairly decent for everyone, although obviously slightly disappointing we're not the ones in Fulham's position. Decent fee helps us keep the rest of the team together now. Shea gets Prem football. Fulham get a player that's likely to improve and increase in value. At least he's not gone to Leeds for far less than he's worth.

Not a fantastic game, but decent enough to knock the competitive rust off, especially once the subs came on. Decent practice against a team sitting deep and really good to see Larin off the mark already.

If the rest of the team have got the same attitude as Downes, we won’t have any problem with motivation this season.

Very sad news. RIP

Nice to see England finish a tournament with a win! Glad France actually made a bit of a game of it since would probably felt a lot more hollow if they just played the same as the first half, especially if it takes the golden boot off of Messi. Such a good opportunity missed but the best result since ‘66… mixed feelings to say the least but less bitter than I expected to feel.

We've already had a far better run than that Greek run!

We really do have a decent chance now... would be utterly amazing to see us actually take it.

Bellingham amazing. Gordon crucial.
