I'm not sure that Just is obviously talented. He's neat and tidy, but that's basically all he's shown so far. With the others there were always hints of more.
If he's a Jamestown recommendation then obviously it would be foolish to write him off at this point, but he really needs to start making an actual difference in the final third when it comes to goals and chances creation. |

Yeo and Opuku are both really starting to get to grips with things.
The Championship is probably the hardest league in terms of pace and physicality to adapt to, especially when you've never played in anything similar before. It takes time and games to get up to speed (one of the reasons I think both Walta and Inoussa are a bit hard done by).
Can't fault the contribution of either so far. |

We've played three of the current bottom six at home so far and four of them in total so I'm trying to keep my feet on the ground a bit. Results like last night make it hard to though.
Fixtures like Millwall away are the ones that separate the serious contenders from the merely decent. That was a statement win last night and as I've said previously, I don't think we've hit anything like top form so far. |

Pleased to see the match ratings for Vipi hovering around the 7/10.
He's taking some stick on Twitter but I thought he did about as well as he could with the kind of service that he got, especially in the first half. Looking at the highlights, most of the decent moves we made had him involved in the build up somewhere. |

Of the three "right" leaders Badenoch is clearly the one with the most about her, but is hamstrung by leading a party which has been anything but Conservative since Cameron took it over. Lots of trust has been lost and it's a slow process winning it back.
Lowe rages from the sidelines but Restore aren't really cutting through. I suspect a majority quietly support his stance on Islam, but the ethno Nationalists in his ranks will put others off. Reform seem to have punched themselves out whilst filling their ranks with the ex-Tories that Badenoch is purging and it'll take even more Labour implosion than we're already seeing for them to regain the higher ground IMO.
To top that off, the biggest problem all three of them have is the vast number of people in the UK electorate who have come to expect the state to support them. Welfare claimants, civil servants, migrants. These Turkeys will not vote for Christmas. |

The two big Spanish clubs have always been dodgy but there's not a chance that the Spanish FA have the cojones to seriously take either of them on, and they're worth too much money to UEFA. |

Takes a bit of pressure off on Saturday, although we really do still need to be getting something from the game.
Happily accept another performance like the last couple. Keep it tight and maybe nick one. [Post edited 13 Oct 21:46]

Far too much aimless hoofing going on. Vipi's doing what he can with it but we need to get the ball down a lot more.
Millwall's movement on the ball has been much better than ours up to now. |

Burnham's not the same as Starmer. He's considerably worse, as most who have paid much attention to his track record could probably have predicted.
He's a nonentity. A placeman there to do the bidding of others. |

I keep saying it, but as iffy as a lot of owners/administrators are, fans bear a significant amount of the responsibility for where the game is financially.
A board or collective of owners who held onto any kind of support from their respective fanbases if they insisted on only spending what the club could generate itself would be rarer than hens teeth. Even owners who put in eight figure sums a year to keep things level could get accused of penny pinching, as our last ones were.
If the game is ever going to be run on any kind of sensible financial basis again, fixing supporter expectation has to be part of the solution. |

A game we should be targeting three points in.
They score plenty, but also concede plenty. If our defence is on top of its game we should have enough going forward to clinch it. Probably not going to be easy or all that entertaining, but a scraped 1-0 is definitely within our means. |

There is massive, massive bloat in the benefits bill. Bell's mates are talking out of their arses.
"Without damaging living standards" is the key line here. They believe that people on benefits should have the same quality of life as people working for a living. The absolute opposite of what should be happening.
You should always, always be better off working. [Post edited 13 Oct 8:09]

The other issue that the league faces is that the cheating is in all likelihood still ongoing. Don't have the exact figures to hand but apparently they were one of the few clubs whose commercial income allegedly increased during Covid, which is well after the period currently in question.
A relegation to the Championship just isn't going to cut it. They have to be stripped of every trophy won in that period and be broken down as a club back to the position they were in prior to the takeover. If that means a relegation to non-league then so be it. Their owners also need to be forced to sell up as they're clearly not fit and proper individuals. |

Seems fairly obvious given the renewed emphasis on this Russian "interference" cobblers and the rushed attempts to overturn voter ID requirements that the stage is being set to bounce us back in via a dodgy referendum.
Seems that the same people who welcomed Barack Obama stating that an independent UK would be at the back of the queue for a trade deal in the event of Brexit, and spent millions sending pro-EU propaganda to every household now have a problem with Government intervention in a supposed demcratic vote. The problem for them is that they seem to have difficulty providing any actual evidence of it. |

Have long championed Widell as a more central option but yesterday is making me rethink that. He found a lot more space on the occasions that he drifted wider.
Franco did a lot of good work off the ball, but he was the weakest one of the three on it yesterday. Just wanted more time on the ball than he had, and not as strong holding it up as he seemed to think he was.
Of the three Fulton is probably the best in that DM role, but yeah, he's probably better playing more towards the halfway line than deep. Eustaquio has the #6 sewn up when fit. |
