That was pretty abject, it has to be said. Such is the narrative* that Stephens MUST be involved, when it becomes obvious the oppo are becoming a threat (and anyone with eyes knows our defence with Stephens in it is shaky) and a decision is made to introduce a new CB, it cannot be instead of Stephens, so we are then forced into a back 5, which we all know is hopless. It also means there are fewer attacking options should we manage to scramble the ball away. Doubly so when your attacking options are Mubama, Edozie and Dobbin - all pretty ineffective players and clearly a level below the ones they replaced. It's been a pretty lethargic start to the season, all things considered. Millwall aside, we've not looked like one of the top level teams. I personally think we're weaker as a squad than we were last season, too. Peretz's dip in form needs to be studied, and we're one long-term injury from Larin away from struggling to reach 8th place IMO. Midfield looks classy, agreed, but not creative. Azaz can't do everything, and on the days where it's not working for Larin, there's no Stewart plan B. Sorry, I'm all bummed out after that one. Lack of any kind of spark, one wonder-goal aside. * no idea what the actual word I need here is, but it's along those lines

Seemed a top bloke, only ever heard good things about him. A one club legend off the pitch as much as on it. Side note - just saw Alex Crooks' piece about him on Talkshite...explains why he goes in so hard on us in the media, looks like he's a boyhood skate!

How do you do that? I looked but couldn't see anything.

I can't pretend I'm ever happy to see him playing as I think he's miles off the level, but booing him is disrespectful. It's not his fault he's not good enough, it's the fault of those choosing to play him. He gives his best and is probably a sound bloke.

My biggest concern is that an away fan has sussed out where Crosshouse car park is. 😟

And Downes IMO

Stephens AGAIN! What does he have over the people in this club?! How is he STILL playing at this level?!

Glitched as hell though, all the streams are tonight

This deserves more appreciation, it's absolutely bang on!

100%. I think he's one of our most important players. He's definitely the one you're urging everybody to get the ball to.

Try being in the UK. No Saturday 3pm games; hit 'n' miss coverage during the season; can only listen to games on the radio if it's an actual radio and terrible streams galore. I'd understand more if I was in Canada.

Of course we can, but the point the poster above made was that for the relatively meagre sum we'd get for him against the funds needed to buy a replacement, it might make more sense to keep him around if Tonda thinks he's of use. Squad depth is a good thing, after all.

I'm actually relieved, because for a minute I thought he might take some accountability and change his ways, and that Leicester would prove not to be the impending binfire we all want to laugh at. He'll win L1, of course, but he'll get worse and worse the higher they get, and eventually it'll turn into a comedy show all over again, only without us as the butt of the joke.

Charles not getting a new number is telling.

Pretty classy. Sponsor ruins it though, would have been better colour-coded.
