Got to get the win tonight, simple as.  They look a better side than their results, but then they did have a complete fucking knob as their manager.

 Would expect them to improve under Wilder, so won’t be easy.  Azaz needs a performance tonight or he could be out of the side.

Lets rip them a new one, 0-3 Will Still’s Red and White army.

Like this team. Really hoping Stewart makes a mark today.

I’m pretty sure he got injured the QPR game before the 4 consecutive batterings we took, if I remember rightly.

Via the app. 

 

Good team.

 

Stewart does need to show something here I think though. Was relatively anonymous last weekend. Would prefer Jelert too but otherwise happy with that line up.

Yep. Strained his hair pulling hand.

I don't think so. If anyone's doing live commentary on here could they do it entirely with emojis? It's just that it's quite dark behind this sofa and I can't read text.

So was Stephens left out on Saturday because of this 'injury?' Will Still has not mentioned an injury to him in his press conferences. Strange.

Big game tonight. I do feel like we are a decent victory away from really getting going, and 2 or 3 could follow quite quickly. Here’s hoping!

I’ve been thinking that before every game so far

For now we really just need Stewart to win some headers, hold the ball up and bring others in to play. That’ll be 10 times more than Downs.

I agree. He has had two seasons of recurring injuries. It will take several full games to recover any degree of fitness and sharpness. Only then will we see the real Ross Stewart and be able to really judge him.

I said before the game on Saturday that it was a big game for Stewart. I barely remember him doing anything then, so maybe today's the day.

Still needs to tell him to stop dropping deep and just stand at the far post waiting for Fellows' crosses.

Hopefully Jack has just got a knock and will be back for Saturday. Unchanged tonight and hopefully Ross Stewart can grab a goal tonight - COYR 😊

Not sure why they've Robbie Jackson from EastEnders on their graphic but here you go... 

(Spoiler: Ings is subbed on and scores in the 78th minute)

I thought Stewart was alright first half Saturday, but second half he was anonymous. For a player who likes to drop deep he has a terrible first touch (on Saturday’s showing). Having said that, he’d still be my choice to start purely for being a presence, which none of our other options are.

Why do you think Stephen’s is so vital?

Yep. Last time in the Championship our form improved when Stephens was injured.

Pleased with this lineup (again), and really happy it's an 'unchanged'.....when did we last do that?

Hopeful that we'll build on the Scouse and 'Boro performances.

COYRs.....um...Ys.

Stood in the concourse and Frannie just walked past me. In with the proper fans instead of a corporate box. Legend! 😎

Mark Dennis was also pictured on the away coaches earlier.

I always laugh at this rewriting of history. 

With Stephens in the side, we went unbeaten for the first 5 games of the season. He got injured. We then got tonked every game and lost 4 games in a row after that. Amazing considering his injury was meant to make us improve.

Yes, we then went on a 25 game unbeaten run without him in the side. However what people don't remember was Stephens did play a big part of the 2nd half of that run, so not sure why there's this narrative that Stephens getting injured made us improve. 

But then again, not like saints fans to rewrite history based on their own agendas.
