Happy Birthday Big Nige. Great man.

Sky Sports News really is dire now.

Worst booing at Paradise since Santa came on at half time.

This Girl? Stopped two years ago. It is a really nice song and a shame we ruined it.

I don't think it was. It was patronising and tone deaf.

The Rangers Supporters Club lining up a statement already.

We do back the lads. We want them to win. We won't just applaud them for fulfilling the fixture. Clapping them off after each of the 15 out of 16 defeats through last season made a real difference, didn't it? We know how to support our team, thanks.

So why aren't they selling it, then?

I don't believe people go with the intention of being negative. We want the team to win otherwise we would boo when we score. But we don't exist in a moment. Previous plays a part- it is why Jamie Vardy got more backing than his performances deserved and why Soumare will get more grief. Fans cheer Monga onto the pitch. There is anticipation when Fatawu gets the ball. There are also groans when Soumare ambles around or Skipp just exists. Fans aren't robots, we cannot just shut out the absolute garbage served up in the past year and like every single player equally. The players here generally have it pretty good. Other clubs would have much more serious reactions.

He and/or El Khannouss goes and it will be a grim watch. We have so little in terms of entertaining or exciting players as it is.

What happens if we all back the lads, applaud them, no negativity and we still lose? Or is this plan guaranteed to win matches?

Just remember to back the lads no matter what! We are far better when we are united! No negativity and applaud them off whatever the result, they are trying their best!

Goodness me, could they be any more patronising? "We share your frustrations" as though they have some real influence at the club and are of significant importance.

Get Dychey back.

The owner, in 2014, said he wanted to be in Europe within three years. Was he delusional when he stated it?

Billy Davies was close around 2008.

And in the summer after we spent large fees on three players and sold no major assets. If Covid was a problem we would have been frugal.

As Gary Neville said "Ooh, that doesn't look good fer the MachUnide goalkeeper...there".

Based on the alternatives and lack of potential signings. The midfield is dreadful, the worst in two decades.

At least Brentford have the excuse of being asset stripped this summer. We had no arguments three years ago.

Anyone know why Cheltenham are the only team on BBC Sport not to have a badge next to their name?

Seen a few games so far and a couple of observations- far less possession across the back and laboured play, and the eight second rule is being enforced and making games better.

Did any Chelsea player actually appeal?

This is caused by the stale nature of the club. The same people in the same positions all the time regardless of performance. An outfield squad with literally no new signings and packed with failures and underachievers. Only the manager is different. Put 5 new signings and a new Director of Football in place and I think time will be given. But no, we are same old, same old. It isn't the first defeat of the new season, it is the next defeat in the sequence of dire output from this squad.

Potter is a very underwhelming manager boosted by a media friendly reputation. Six years at this level with a record bumped up by his final six months at Brighton.
