I thought Kelvin was absolutely outstanding today, several really top drawer saves and commanded the box really well. Fantastic display.

I think you're no longer a member because you were wrong and it's hard to take. You still seem plenty keen on bickering actively.

Yeah, lets focus on the full 90 minutes at least.

Lawrie Mac and Chris Nicholl are still my faves.

Derby score against reading

He's on record as saying he'll pack the midfield - could be bluff of course, but I think you're right they'll try to stop us playing and hope to nick something.

Can I just say Bring back Baron Greenback thankyou

Which is why he's a good loan signing. Hopefully Seabourne will play for Saints again though, so unless Hooiveld is better than Seabourne there'd be no point in signing him permanently.

Is he any better than Seabourne? If not I can't see the point in signing him permanently.

So far he's managed a grand total of... wait for it... one substitute appearance for QPR. Something tells me we may have trouble finding some other club to fob him off on come January.

Bet she can't actually stand up

You mean you're going to have a ****

True, but it's still a valid point that we haven't played any of the sides that are really challenging for promotion yet, and after 8 games this is a bit of a statistical anomaly, and can't just be accounted for by the fact that if we beat teams they have fewer points than they would otherwise have had. To my mind the only really decent team we have played up till now have been Leicester - where were unlucky not to come away with something. It'll be really interesting to see how we do at Cardiff.

I know you said that pre-season, and fair enough no-one knew what was going to happen and where we'd finish - you might've been right. You don't really still believe we're going to finish 17th though do you? You're just clinging on out of misguided stubbornness - let go, feel the force Dalek.

******, I'd love one or two of them but 70 is streching it.

I've only seen the second half but Leeds look really poor.

Seriously, if he was reffing us I'd be well hacked off

That ref needs to get a grip - every time someone falls over it's a yellow card

Srtictly speaking this is Burnley build up but I want to share. They seem to be fielding, bar Austin, more or less a full strength team against MK Dons today and are currently 0-1 down at home :-)

Yeah, I heard that too - made me wonder.

Nice - thanks v. much for posting those

The way we play I can't see us drawing many games. I reckon we should win four or five of those.
