Well I'm on the record as opposing Raya's sale so that doesn't make happy reading. As I said at the time they'll get a fee for him that will dwarf the £3M we got. Best distribution ever seen though?!!

And so it continues.....

We get new players but we don't actually improve much if at all. Disorganised defence, strikers who can't score,players out of position, middle of the table at best forever, Nothing will change with this manager whatever players he has at his disposal so next Transfer Window is not worth worrying about to me, it'll be the same as all the rest.

That's the point! Doesn't matter that the 3 goals were the result of" individual errors", we have been consistently making those errors all last season and its continued this. The reason is that the defence, individually and collectively, is not good enough, and the attention to fixing that has been inadequate. Instead we have wasted millions on strikers. It comes back to the manager in the end, it always does.

I expect Bolton to write this season off, whatever they say, and hope to rebuild for next season. Burnley did it from there after all! ?

Come off it Chaddy---- over the top! For a start they are 11 points behind, a reasonable comment to make------they won't be enough to save them will they? That's not slagging off, its common sense.

Douglas and Finney were in a league of their own.

I give up!

Makes it sound like a punishment!!

Premature?!! He's been here nearly 3 years!!

There's an indictment then, we've spent £12M on 2 of them! How much more till we find one?

Exactly, being 3 points from 6th means nothing!

Not if he's seen us.

I think you're getting a bit carried away there! I'm just pointing out the fallacy of arguing that we're only 3 points behind when the fact is we've only played 6 games! 24 games would see us 12 points off 6th wouldn't it? Probably bottom half.

We're only 3 points off 6th because we've only played 6 games!

I'm the same as most, I'm grateful to Mowbray for the good he has done but I do not believe he can take us any further. If we want to stay mid-Championship forever TM is your man.

Actually Parson, after i posted, I read that you didn't go and watched it on live streaming. Still wouldn't mind knowing how you stay married though! (if you are of course!)

PB---you didn't actually go did you? Awesome if you did! 2 questions; How do you afford the petrol (and the time)? How does your marriage survive?!!!

That was a great cross and header at Sheffield though. Shows we have another route to goal which has been almost completely ignored. Wide strikers my arse!

Number 3-----"have they any money?" doesn't feature! The thing is, even if Number 3 was included, Venkys would still get through!

Not the best game to remember him by!

And if he is able to play every game we will be fine.

Oh no! Another of my all-time heroes gone. Thanks for the memories Mike---there are many of them.

So TM says Chapman needs to work harder and we have to automatically believe that to be true? We haven't heard Chapman's side of it and I don't suppose we will. However we do have the example of Joe Rothwell to go by. TM similarly slagged him of a few weeks ago and it sounded a load of crap to me. I don't believe much of what the manager says anymore.
