2023 version of Jermaine Wright I just hope Ross Stewart is more Rasiak than Fuller

Given the attacking players we have we should be doing a lot better. Martin should be under pressure to fix it and if he isn't then Wilcox can go too, after all this is his appointment

Luckilywe have 3 winnable games coming up in our next 4 to paper over the cracks. If we don't beat at least two of Middlesbrough, Stoke and Rotherham we are in major trouble

The atmosphere was fine against Norwich and QPR. Not conceding after 20 seconds helps.

If we can go more than 60 seconds without conceding it will be a considerable improvement. Despite all the talk of learning lessons, nothing will change and our best hope is our attacking players dig us out of a hole. 3-3 draw.

"Your football is shit"

To be fair, he is right. Before their fourth we were well on top in the second half. After that it was game over. However, what he fails to address is the terrible start and the position we've found ourselves in, again.

Lose against Ipswich and yes we should sack him. We've been found out and if it happens again Wilcox has to act.

I have to be honest, I'm already questioning the manager. The tactics are disastrous. It's great he has principles but we're not good enough to play like this, everyone can see it, and in particular the opposition. A defeat against Ipswich and personally I'd sack him. Knee jerk maybe but there should be a long list of managers who could come in.

He did lose at home to Cambridge

Oh no. At the ground. A message on the big screen reads WARNING: The pre-match build up will include flashing lights

Holgate will have had a full 2 weeks of training, I think if he does start then he'll be a lot better than last time. Let's write that one off as a bad day at the office.

On the train up to Sunderland I made the mistake of watching highlights from the 8-0 game Hopefully a Leicester fan has the same idea coming down tomorrow and jinxes a result for us

First evening game of the new season. Does anyone know if we're doing a light show?

I reckon with THB away with the U21s, Holgate will play again.

We've got a Premier League ref for this, David Coote, but I still expect dubious decision making.

Ilias Chair is someone we should be looking to sign, he's a great player for them and would give us an extra spark.

Usually I'd agree with you but I've come round to it, I think it's great personally.

A sign of a good team is winning when you don't play well. We'll play better this season and not win. Luckily QPR are fairly limited.

It's a shame Sulemana's not quite fit yet, he would've enjoyed playing against the QPR defence. I'd still bring on SAA in the second half and use his pace against their tiring defence.

There are some very excelllent, well-thought out posts who have summed the situation up far better I could have put. Yes it is disappointing that key players have left and more may be going, but it's not like the transfer window has shut and we can't replace them. I'm feeling very positive about the football club - we're unbeaten, I go to the stadium expecting us to win and I'm enjoying my weekends again. Hopefully that will stay that way after today's game. For be, if we're in the top 6 come the end of the month and we will finally have a settled squad where we know who's here and who isn't, I'd consider that a great platform to really kick on for a promotion push.

I can't help but feel that the recent news that we've offered Che a contract is just a PR move by the club to try to show how much we tried to keep him. Hopefully he will at least play tomorrow

We'll find out what's happening in an hour or so I guess

Yeah there will be no problem at all. Will only be an issue if it's a discount ticket for the different age bands (i.e. under 25 or over 65) but not sure if they check that at all.
