It's incredible how lucky our hit rate has been with striker signings the last 10 years or so. Or am i forgetting all the duds (ie goodwillie). A 20+ goalscorer has come out the (albeit expensive) woodwork everytime drastically needed. A lot of clubs havnt had anything close.

I think 8 mil and i'd keep him (as a goalscorer is coming from nowhere otherwise), 15 mil+ i'd sell and reinvest (w wharton + raya cash) to make a solid squad for 2-3 years (wage budget wouldnt last longer) and take a punt at promotion. Neither will happen.

I wonder if day passes for efl will be cheaper also!

Hope i can still watch the full match replays for free

Point or win against wednesday and we're safe

Eager to hear his reasonings.. tactically that was lost before a ball was kicked.

Well the quadruple change was interesting, which led to passing it around the back and absolutely no forward intent. Worst i've ever seen us play in the flesh. I live down here and they have bizarre fans, takes 4 goals up until they're singing. Had to endure that from the home end..

Bristol will be only game i make this season, so a win would be amazing. Goddamn we need it..

I agree gallagher adds a well needed physical side to the game, despite not being amazing at it.. i think we'll get more results if we play like that - JDTs fluid quick passing style with a confident defence, wing backs not being over commited and exposing us. A nice mix of long ball and playing from the back. Like a normal team

I agree would go back 4, but cant see him making changes whilst winning. Would rather see full backs defending channels then any of that back 3. Wharton was trying to play like his brother at one point there (quite effectively to be fair!!) Ayari and buckley would be pretty effective in a midfield 3 with tronstad behind them.. cant say anyone on bench fills me with confidence except siggy keeps getting skinned so would bring on hedges Leos made good saves but distribution awful, we keept trying clever through balls rather than to feet.

We're in no position to let anyone go in the summer (except a couple dud strikers), if fadz could do another season i think we'll need just a LB in defence, would sign chrisene! Couple of cm's, winger and x2 strikers.. maybe gk depending how pears gets on. Could do it with 10m easy, i reckon max 5 mil will be spent..

It is interesting, as we were quite effective, gally won a lot of flick ons and Dolan was there to pick up. 'Releasing the shackles' were they really told not to cross it? Mad. We don't have a plan b target man mind. I did think we didn't play amazingly also though, and Stoke were awful but had chances. We'd lose against a better team. Going to be very interesting seeing how we play now, its a great jumping off point for Eustace my opinion. As JDT had some very positive attacking aspects drilled into them.

Have to say Tomasson gave me Jeremy Corbyn vibes (think what you will of him!) First glimmer of hope in years, enjoyed watching us play, though with its flaws. Did a good job and a what if / could of gone all the way if backed properly The bench we've been putting out for most this season has barely been league 2 standard.. crazy really.

Wayne rooney may have something to not say about that new manager bounce.

Big game for moran, can't lose the ball everytime he gets it like normal..
