Here for one year as a third choice keeper isn’t exactly stacking shit. Think you are just trying to find reasons to be annoyed here tbh, and we have plenty of those already

Only here because Stol did his ACL, probably very low wages and will likely never even make the bench. Don’t see any issue here

Have quite a decent American fan base, a lot of them getting into footy coincided with our successful period/league win, I could defo see one of their sports consortiums seeing us as a great opportunity for a big English club. With Brum and Wrexham in the championship there is a lot of potential for money there too, bet they were all licking their lips seeing the coverage Brum vs Wrexham got last year for a second division game

Not necessarily a phone of his stubborn tactics but having said that thought we adjusted for Saturday and it was a very different set up. Also do think that the players seem fitter and more willing to scrap, which I think is more than can be said for anything bar Enzo since the FA Cup. Wouldn’t lose sleep if we sacked him but there are some signs of continued improvement if you remove the Oxford shambles. Just whether Oxford was the outlier or that will become a pattern of inconsistency, think Barnsley this weekend tells us a lot

They’ve just had a massive merger with Carlsberg, a lot of staff turnover and changes, they won’t be buying anything like a football club for the foreseeable

Anyone who knows anything about this process, would we hear anything next couple of days with regards to the deadline and any bids that may or may not have come in, or are we waiting for leaks etc in the weeks following? Also, if someone did put in a bid, what would the timeline look like from that point to a purchase? Would we expect to hear something alluding to the sale prior etc?

To be fair even without those two, two away wins on the bounce with two weeks recovery/training time and games against Peterborough and Doncaster at home is a massive opportunity to build proper momentum, kind of turned into a bit of a decent run for us with Barnsley having a game tm and having had a few shockers, think this will be the stretch that decides Martin’s future

Can only be good news, he has a good year we can sell him instead of one of our youngsters

You’d have to think with the options we have out wide it’s probably a new shape, I think- McCarthy Joseph-Souttar-O’Hora-Thomas Lundstram Page Braybrooke Alves Cullen Riis

Either cullen out wide or a midfield diamond with him up front with Riis. At least it’s different I guess

I’d be happy with this, would be active change, although if we do go a back 3/5 I think it’ll be Thomas or McFarlane on the left, best hope for Alves with a back 3 is if he goes one up top and two behind the striker types, which would be our 10 group plus Howell, Alves and maybe Watson in competition

Agree with the last two paragraphs, it’s why I clearly have stated it isn’t the main issue, but I think saying players are not going to be affected is being silly, they are humans too and will have human reactions to things around them. And the moaning and groaning is not what I would call mild mannered in the slightest. You’re right, it isn’t Marseille fans storming a training ground, as that is actually just clinically insane behaviour for an adult with a life to commit to. Just isn’t really a point is it, the players would of course be more effected if we physically threatened them, but are still effected by the fans and their reactions and especially the negativity or positivity, and especially if things are already high pressure. Just because it isn’t the main problem doesn’t mean it isn’t a problem, and we clearly have more than just one problem

Think he’d look a lot better if he was allowed to run into space in behind and we were a touch more direct. Don’t really understand the signing in the context of how we choose to play, doesn’t really strike me as a massively technical player

Think the early stages should have been far worse, I don’t think that has any bearing on what I have said about our current situation though. Also not sure any level of any fan protest would’ve got him and Top out, they’re leaving because they can’t physically afford to own the club anymore, not for any noble reason, but I still agree that the last 2 prem years should’ve been far worse protest wise. Both can be true

Really want Doyle or Page in the ten but being realistic I think I am actually hoping we start Bobby Reid if the alternative is Cullen, what a sad little life
