Friday night against Brum absolutely stinks of trouble too. Saturday 12:30, I understand if it limits lout behaviour.

Especially because town will be full early with lads knocking work early.

Just seen a post saying Ipswich could now put out a back 5 including keeper that was at West Brom a few years back

Indeed but one of the 5 has an ACL injury and is out for the season.

That Brum skipper is going to be absolutely shite this season. 
 

Seems to think he’s Franz Beckenbauer 

Nearly had a valid point

Coventry fans think they have won the league.

Are these a genuine representative of Coventry fans or  a small minority of idiots on social media?

Same thing?

First 4 games and points wise we’re in automatic promotion PPG whilst not playing anywhere near what we should be capable of

[Simonb]

Very early days but a great start and brilliant playing first over the weekend.

 

Out of the other 5 of the early 6 favourites, only Coventry can go above us if they win.

 

Birmingham 2 behind, Southampton can go to 2 behind, Ipswich 4 and sheff united 6.. assuming they all win. Great start Marti, especially considering we're the most unsettled side in the league outside of Hillsborough at the moment. 

 

Terrific start, even though the footballs been a hard watch im impressed by the effort and results the lads are getting so far

[egg_fried_rice]

Boro look decent and Blades, well, don’t. Just got away with a blatant red too. Can’t believe they are the worst of the two Sheffield teams this year so far!

[BenTheFox]

Sheffield United look abysmal. 

[EastAnglianFox]

Boro deservedly ahead

 

Surely Selles is toast after this

[Tuna]

Selles yet another comedy appointment by clueless new owners.

I think out of the early pace setters, West Brom are well equipped to compete. Seem to have that extra quality in their line up?

[Tuna]

Burgzorg makes Daka look like Isak

[BillyFOX12]

Boro look decent. Anyone else noticed how much slower the pace is in this league compared to the PL?

[Tuna]

They say it's the best league in the world. They're wrong. It's crap quality wise.

[whoareyaaa]

No idea why they didn't keep Wilder

It’s semantics isn’t it?
 

“Best” could mean quality of the players, tactics or teams. Or overall level. Or it could mean competitiveness between each team and how many twists and turns it has to offer. 
 

obviously the quality is lower than the PL, but the fact that most teams can beat each other throughout the season makes for an entertaining league product 

[Mickyblueeyes]

Sorry everyone and this is really disgraceful. Qpr v Charlton may have finished 3-1 but it’s not a true reflection of the game. 3 worldies and all 3 scorers will probably be in the PL by Monday. Nathan what’s his face is a sex god and Wales will win the World Cup. Up the addicks, best team in the league

[Guest Bilo]

Steve Cooper to Sheff Yoo?

I do think there are right to try and move forward in some way. They have had years of Wilder with Heckingbottom between, a few games at the start of one season with Jokanovic that didn’t work. There is a world of managers outside of old school Yorkshire guys. It seems Selles has been a bad appointment but I get the logic behind the change even if it hasn’t worked.

[Stevosevic]

Not watched them yet looking like Boro will be up there?

They might find themselves without Hayden Hackney soon though who by all means runs the show in midfield for them.

I know everyone keeps saying it but I’m watching the Ipswich Derby game, I still can’t quite believe the  massive difference in quality between the championship and the premier league. It feels like how league 2 felt 10 years ago
