Right into them already.

Not a good couple of overs for Evison to be honest- couldn't get the ball away, a point goes begging, then caught fast asleep for an obvious single.

Fantastic knock. Makes a massive difference for us when available.

'Bring your whole squad'

If the club's set up anything like Brighton are under Tony Bloom, the manager is fairly incidental- they've probably had an ongoing short list for his replacement, wouldn't surprise me if they find someone better either.

Far more favourable than the Martin thread to be fair- 41 likes on the post compared to, erm, zero

Yeah I certainly wasn't optimistic and it didn't feel like a good fit, but it wasn't as strong a reaction as it's been towards Martin- any last remaining goodwill towards the ownership has long-since eroded too, so that's probably a factor.

I certainly don't remember Cooper being completely written off at the start either- underwhelming certainly, but most were willing to give him a chance.

Jewelleh... Paul Jewell.

I know it's only AI- I didn't see anything of Barnsley last season- but it's positive. Could Brussell actually be having a re-think on his tactical approach?

I like that a lot.

Yeah, great innings but we just needed to survive until lunch there- would have lost another couple of overs for the changeover. 3.7-odd an over required? Need a few early wickets.

If we can somehow get another hundred or so, we've got half a sniff.

Had a feeling you'd be on the fence about it

Talk about toeing the ****ing line.

Basically all the dross we're desperate to get rid of.

I just haven't got the energy to get behind this ****.

To be fair, Maharaj was an unbelievable signing. Both of our overseas for the opening few matches were last-minute- certainly could have done much better than Patel but options would have been limited by that point.

Giving one of our relegation rivals an insight into our tactics (or lack thereof) is daft, even by our own standards.

Sick of ITV's coverage already tbh.

Iconic.

Cracked the LCFC XI and included Arnar Gunnlaugsson- completed it.
