Man City will put 8-9 past us this weekend. I'd settle for 6-0 right now, and fear 10.

That's a bit pessimistic, TRO. With nothing much happening this week, maybe Pep will give the first team a holiday.

I think a 1-0 Hammers victory is worth a punt. City have scrapped the last two games. And West Ham have got to start improving soon?

Sorry to bang on, a very average Arsenal team, not playing well and possibly falling apart, 4th, the best Spurs team of any generation plus a genius manager/coach, and the Messiah playing up front, 7th, behind Burnley.

..only just :) But I agree, you don't get trophies this early in the season.

Sorry that was sarcasm (doesn't work well in posts does it), great goal from Rooney. Great game from Everton. West Ham are going to struggle all season. Can we have Cresswell back?

Unfortunately Fenners Mick McCarthy has gone past the point of no return for some Town fans. He has, and still is, doing an amazing job with the resources he has at his disposal. We have had a recognized right-back in our squad for only one of the last seven years and he was dropped after the Sheff Wed game to be replace by Dominic Iorfa (Iawful is his nickname), The real problem is Marcus Evans unwillingness to buy players, but without him the club is in debt.

Last season was dreadful to watch, there were 4 or 5 games at home that were good to watch, those games against Lincoln weren't exceptions, without Tom Lawrence's goals and the goalkeeping of Bartosz Białkowski we would have been relegated. By the end of the season a minority of fans were vocally against him.

He isn't a diplomat and his response was to talk about the "fans" in general as being idiots and not knowing what they were talking about. He is probably right because most football fans at most clubs haven't got a clue, but that wasn't going to win them back.

With a good 18 months in the middle of his reign we have been losing fans for 10 years between Keane and Jewell and now the ground is half empty and without any atmosphere.

The Championship is it's usual free for all. Reading in 16th are six points behind Middlesborough in 7th. 8 points plus in the next four games would probably put us in the play-offs at Christmas, 3 points or less and we could be in the bottom half of the table.

Don't blame you if you can't be bothered to read all of this.

How long has Farke up got left at N***ich C**t gc?

We will not be getting rid of him any time soon. He has only been in for this season, so to get rid of him this early is plain daft.

Whilst the football at times can be like watching paint dry, when the team clicks we do look decent. (only 2 minutes off winning away at Arsenal in the League Cup). We went on a decent unbeaten run with good wins at Sheff Utd, Middlesboro and at Poormans Road.

I just wonder what they are doing in training as every week we appear to have more injuries.

The club has just had the AGM and admitted to wasting all that money from the premier league, but we have no external debts (at present!).

Farke will be given at least a season to get his ideas bedded in.

Ah, the beautiful game, remember that? Let's put down some jumpers and have a socially-distanced kickabout. Long shots only, and no hugging and kissing.
