I think Ipswich are being a bit unfairly written off. Granted if they don't win tomorrow, that'll make it 6 without a win going into playing us away next week, but I still think it's a bit of a blip. I can't really pick between them or Southampton for 2nd. I hope it's Ipswich though.

I want to think that was the exception rather than the norm. Despite the 2020 and 2021 drop offs I'm not particularly concerned. Maybe we won't keep up 2.5 points a game all season but we're the same odds to get promoted as Man City are to make the top 4.

"Form team Coventry" have less points than us over the past 5 games, past 10 games, past 15 etc... probably last whatever number you can possibly enter to be honest.

Technically did lose our first game of September. But then I suppose technically we won our first game of January so can't work both ways. 3 from 5 for Maresca is some going.

They say it on every single tweet. "Just took the bins out #PUSB"

I held some concerns about us in November, but I feel like since that Winks winner at West Brom we've become both entertaining as well as effective, we've scored 3+ in 6/8 games in that period. It increasingly looks like the striker was the issue.

Sad isn't it. One of those names that reminds you of a different era. Can't believe it's been 18 years since he managed England.

Did wonder if this would come up. Would've been the only possible explanation for them selling out the ground without Gary Barlow being around.

Interesting table, quite a good one. I think we've done OK but are largely being carried by the big two sales. It's not bad, but there's definitely room for improvement.

If it's above five million I'll be amazed.

Even Roy Keane said it was a penalty as well. What hope is there. It's mad how brainwashed people have become.

That Brighton video. ****ing hell. I 'almost' felt sorry for Ward eventually. It was that twat who kept picking him I can't forgive.

We're top because we're a Premier League level team that opted into this league through sheer negligence over a long period of time. The only narrative that needs pushing is how badly we've underachieved in 2022/23. But that being said it was not a given that we would turn it around, so the manager deserves a lot more credit than he will get for it.

Playing down a rivalry when a large part of that making up games against Forest is just... nah. I get people from say Loughborough not being as bothered as someone from Hinckley but there is clearly something in this fixture. Football's odds are increasingly being shifted against the majority of fans, taking away needle in these games isn't for me.

Don't think that's really true. Maybe annoyance at how it ended but I doubt people on here bar a very small minority would say either are bad players. Flawed but not crap.

you know what it shouldn't be but you'd not put it totally past us.

Out of contract in the summer so it won't be much you would imagine.

It's awful. I wouldn't be bothering if they weren't a rival. Think West Ham is about the only one worse I can think of.

Particularly when we're hardly in a position of strength on this topic as well.

Even at the time of signing it wasn't really a priority position. We had other pressing matters but we made him top priority for some reason. Bloke's an absolute dud. He's had one decent season in his career and by decent, I mean a functional player in a well organised side. The odd nice bit of technique has conned many.

Yet another who could've so easily been remembered far more fondly than he will be. Really is remarkable how badly that side fell to bits. You'd never have believed it were possible.

This'll sell in no time. Small allocation and pretty easy to get to.

Hull have got a quite decent side together. Fair play.

I'd have liked it to work for him but I can't really knock him or Maresca for this - difference of opinion and neither of them pissed around getting something sorted.
