Don't be mean, he's Welsh. At least he didn't say, Llywyyn Supporter.

I'd sooner start Mara, assuming Adams is off, simply to allow ArmA in a deeper role. When Mara came on at the weekend, ArmA began running the game. Alternatively, Alcaraz can have a crack at striker. I just feel like it would be a mistake not to have ArmA in that deeper role when he's playing so well.

In the running to be new head of Spanish FA and/or UEFA, apparently.

The QPR player didn't impact Bazunu's sight or motion at all and made no movement towards the ball. Perfectly fair goal and would certainly not have been overruled by VAR. Shite clearance from Armstrong, I think. Just glad the lino noticed the offside for the disallowed "goal". Two observations on that: great save from Bazunu and the offside only occurred because Stephens was very quick to step up - he often gets his positioning wrong but that was good defending. The defending of the initial run from the player with the ball was pathetic though from Stu Amstrong and someone else.

Fraser is a better player, so who cares. Good luck, Nathan.

I've been pleasantly surprised with how good the officials have been in our matches so far. Generally consistent and no big howlers. Seems better than the Premier League, to be honest.

"My brother and me". You're welcome.

This man is clearly some sort of pervert.

He's 27 and they are probably offering him a contract worth about £20 million to him. Or he can play on reduced wages in the Championship. Simple as that

I thought Russo looked hot when she was crying.

What, their blatant dive? No, it was a blatant dive.

Patterns of play etc. on the ball are good. Dominating again in an away match that was marked down as a tricky banana skin. We do desperately need more in centre mid though. Charles isn't even really sitting deep, he's pushing up to win the ball and then there's a big gap between midfield and back line. Full backs being narrow help to plug it but Plymouth want to go direct and wide, so it suits them.

Rod Wallace.

Are there now? I hope you don't post any mote details.

Don't worry about the Ipswich thing. The best League One team was our one, with Fonte, Schneiderlin, Lallana, Lambert etc.

Probably a spare-rib tickler, melon farmer, pussy footer, knicker picker.

Skate.

I'm with you on this, although if Smallbone is fit I'd start him instead of Downes, I think. Edozie had a poor match, Adams looks too good for this level and Armstrong seems in confident form and is also working very hard, so I'd bring Che in and move Armstrong to the left.

Better off keeping Che and losing him for free next summer. We've got enough money coming in. He's a top player at this level. Norwich couldn't really handle him. Plus he'll probably have more options on a free next year, or a fat new contract with us if we go up. Better than shitty Palace. Move on Sulemana or Tella instead. Then, assuming Downes is coming, we don't need any more midfielders or forwards so just focus on bringing in new a centre back - assuming ABK is leaving - who is an upgrade and can dominate in the air.

If we had a couple of people who could head the ball we'd be great.

Smallbone is class and we have plenty if good forward options at this level. Just need some aerial power.

Drinking in Walkabout in Cardiff before a match there. Police decided to send a bus to escort all the Saints fans to the ground. For some reason, a big chant of "No surrender to the IRA" commenced. I joined in as it seemed funny. That's it.

I think Charles needs to come in at CM. Should give us a bit more defending set pieces (and attacking them). My friend is a Norwich fan and reckons they will probably sit quite deep so hopefully we can get a hold on the game. Other than that, I would say last Friday's team picks itself, with the only question marks being Adams/Adam Armstrong and Edozie/SAA/Stu Armstrong.

They would be fine if we had Pelle up top and Wanyama at centre mid. But we don't have anyone in the team who is genuinely good in the air. [Caveat: haven't really seen enough of Charles to know.] Most teams will have several players better in the air than any of ours. Means we will be vulnerable at set pieces. If we add height somewhere else then they might be fine but I think we should be trying to find a big bugger that's good on the ball (maybe easier said than done).

Not as fit as Nathan Jones was.
