Finished 5-2,good bounce back from the beating Liverpool gave them last week.

Munich only draw at home and Barca get beat to start their seasons,minor blip or an indication of closer title races there this season.

What happened to Mowbray's view that getting a tall keeper would stop people putting crosses in,looking like a relegation scrap in order if he stays as manager all season.

No point in playing well if you dont get shots on target,last time i looked you have to hit the target to score a goal and we seem to be bad at hitting the target so far this season.

I have no idea what theyll do when they decide to sell the club and neither do you.

If they were just going to walk away from the club theyd have more than likely done it when we dropped into league one,the prospect of them doing it isnt at 0% but its not nailed on like you say.

That would be the ideal defence but will Mowbray pick that defence is another thing altogether

Puts things into perspective,we're worried about 3rd kits being off the rack and if we have a replacement for Mulgrew while Bolton and Bury fans are wondering if theyll have a club to support in the years to come.

I agree hes a better forward than Gallagher at the moment but I'm guessing Austin will be on much higher wages than Gallagher is,wages we cant afford but West Brom can.

I can't see anything other than an easy win for them. 3-0 Fulham

The 2 defences are taking a while to settle into the new season.

I hope Charlton's Keeper plays like Luton's

Great news with the new deal,maybe a future captain in a few yrs time with a little more experience in him.

I remember getting the Orange CIS one with Henchoz on the back.I think i just wanted to get a player nobody else would have so went with him lol

I will wait to see the team playing in it before i give a final opinion,atm all i can say so far is its .........interesting.

They'll have to play Skins

We conceded 7 more away from home than Sheff Utd and Middlesbrough did in the whole 46 games.At least the home teams fans got value for money when we visited.

i think Mowbray saw last season that at his age its getting harder for Graham to play 3 times in 7 days and with a lot of midweek games in this league we need a second forward to lead the line when Graham gets a rest,He doesnt seem to have confidence in Brereton to do it yet so Gallagher could turn out to be a good signing taking up the slack when Graham is done.

I hate Pearce's commentating on any football match,i always put the game on mute when i'm watching a game hes commentating on.

Its the best signing Mowbray will do all summer.Great to see Johnson getting recognition for the work with the under 23s and moving up the ranks at the club.

My expectations will depend on what the squad looks like at the end of the transfer window,at the moment i cant see anything more than another mid table finish after flirting with a relegation battle.

2 quick goals for Villa plus Gayle sent off and missing 2nd leg,looks like Villa have this in the bag now.

i would have settled for mid table at the start of the season then pushing on next season.The position we were in at the end of Jan gave hope that playoffs were in reach but i think the squad we have are roughly in the position they should be in.We've now had a year to see who can handle playing in this league and hopefully Mowbray can now weed out the players not up to championship football and can get a few players in the help us kick on next season.

They'll need more than 1 pint after the performance the team are giving.

I'm not ready to write him off yet after only 1 season but it does look like hes heading atm for the Grabbi category of forwards we've wasted money on down the years.
