Missing from both of today's games:

  • Ben Brereton-Diaz (no reason yet given)
  • Will Smallbone (no reason yet given)
  • Joe Aribo (no reason yet given)
  • Mateus Fernandes (illness)
  • Flynn Downes (recovering from injury)
  • Taylor Harwood-Bellis (recovering from injury)

BBD missing is good news, he seems one who wants to leave I suspect.

Come on, for the championship it's perfectly fine, just not what we would want, which is dominant / great.

You think? Bree? Fraser? Stephens? Bazunu? Manning? That team starts next week, it's not getting a result against Wrexham

The club can do one if we are doing the Bazunu/Stephens thing after the transfer window closes.

MF unwell? Please just be honest and say he’s leaving. It’s so disingenuous to try and mug supporters off any more than they already are. We’re not stupid and know exactly what’s going on.

I suggest none are in Stills future thoughts (unless injuries are true)

I'm not sure why you see that lineup and bench and that's your first thought. Far bigger issues than that. 

Call it myopic rage. 

There is a whole world of issues, but I cannot get past giving him that bloody contract.

Who are Lawrence and Akachuckwu ?  

Nico Lawrence. Young CB who, I think, came from non League then went on loan to a league 2 club before getting injured. Never heard of the other lad.

Smallbone and Taylor both injured, according to Alfie House. No reasons given for BBD and Aribo being left out

Hopefully fucking off

It's an ok Championship team, but jeez that's pretty weak for our ambitions.

All the fake illnesses, and injuries annoy me . Just say 'not risking' as possible transfer in the air. We aren't stupid, we all know what's going on.

The only surprise is Downes. I wonder if he is looking for an exit.

Stephens to score a worldy 😃

We need to, but I'm still not convinced we'll get much business done. I think there's some book balancing going on and it'll be loans late in the window.

Downes has been injured, presumably not ready yet. The only injury absentee that is actually genuine.

I think he’s the young Irish guy, Romeo, was fairly highly rated when we signed him. The squad does look particularly weak from this though. Welington surely over Manning next week though

I guess it's based on the team we could put out if everyone stayed.

You need to, keep your blood pressure down. He's a perfectly capable Championship defender. Better than most teams have in this league. He'll do a job until THB is fit again, or Edwards persuaded Still he is worth a shot.

While that part is true, the problem begins when he is being picked every game, not on merit, but because he is captain. Quarshie, THB, Wood and Edwards are all competing for the place next to Stephens.

I agree. This appears to be the team starting the season though and that is just awful. Poor will still.

I’m disappointed to definitively see that Tyler and Mateus are obviously off. 
Other than that delighted at no BBD or Joe Aribo.
Also Delighted at starts for Downs, Sesay and Quarshie. Out with the old in with the new! It starts here.
 

The result probably a loss - but I’m glad we not playing those that are not committed. We get trounced- SR might need hurry up a bit! We don’t get trounced play alright - start of a new era? Ish? Let’s see….🤞
