Does it work the same way as appealing red cards? Get a stronger punishment, rather than the initial one? Just looking at the forwards they had two years ago - Vardy, Mavididi, Iheanacho, Fatawu, Daka and they still had room to bring in Tom Cannon for £7.5m. That's a lot on the books, while they also had an experienced midfield and defence also. They gambled on breaking the rules to get back up instantly, similar to how Forest gambled in the Premier League, but it hasn't worked out for Leicester.

I thought Archer would show up this season and give us a view of the player he was at Preston and Middlesbrough. A few nice finishes in his first season here also, in the league and cup, but he was feeding off scraps in the Premier League, so with a few more chances I was of the belief we could have one of the better strikers in this league. In the same way that Adam Armstrong revitalises in the second tier. However, for whatever reason nothing is coming off for here him now and when he isn't scoring, similarly to Armstrong, there isn't much point on him being on the pitch as he isn't doing anything else. There have been two games this season where he has actually seemed up for it and that was Birmingham home and away. So, maybe if we tell him we're playing Birmingham every week now, that might work.

He backed away from Shawcross very quickly.

Also have a confession to make in that I think I'm enjoying Jack Stephens again. Give him another three years.

A lot of focus has been on Larin getting ready for the Canada World Cup squad. But, surely Stewart is also an outside bet for the Scotland national team should he finally remain fit. George Hirst and Lyndon Dykes in their most recent squad alongside Che Adams and Lawrence Shankland, and a fit Stewart is at least better than the first two. Just needs to do the hard bit for him and remain fit.

The triple half time subs worked as well.

Incredible win. We were still 3-1 down on the 80th minute. Stephens' finish for the second goal was probably my favourite of the night and gave the faintest belief. But, we went and done it! Got away with starting Archer. If it isn't Birmingham, he isn't interested. Never again. But, yeah, what a win. Up the Saints.

We fucking did it lads. What the fuck.

Norwich's new striker has three goals tonight now. Four goals in his first two. Shame we don't have the resources to compete with Norwich and can't identify such players.

At least we've got six months to prepare for next season now.* *Which we also had this time last year having only signed Gronbaek on loan in January and we still didn't do anything until late August and several matches into the season.

On the topic of Norwich appointing a better manager than us. They also signed a striker in the January window. He has 3 goals in his first 2 appearances. 2 tonight. While we're persisting with Archer because our new striker can't possibly start 8 days after signing. Oh no, he has to the whole learning how we play thing, so can't start games this soon. If we didn't already know it, our whole setup at the club is so wrong.

Opposition teams don't seem to back off and let us have a shot on goal. Probably why we're 3-0 down.

We'd never have had a player named Izzet Furkan Malak without Goztepe.

Needs the same conversation Pardew had with Lambert.

Red cards cancelling out goals is an interesting precedent.
