    Tigers fan here, I'm not coming to have a pop.

    But where is it all going wrong for you? I haven't seen a great deal of you this season but some of the results must be starting to worry you. Are you calling for Sven's head or are you still patient?
    You pretty much now have an all-star team for the Championship, with Danns, Fernandes, Mills etc and you was supposed to cruise this division.

    PS How come Johnson isn't playing? I had him in my fantasy team but he hasn't played for you yet.

    We are only 3 games in and have 3 points. Not the greatest start in the world but not the worst. With the local derby at the weekend there is no better place to get back on track at.

    And Michael Johnson isnt match fit, i suggest you get rid of him at least for now. I wouldnt have any of our midfielders in your dream team because they will get rotated alot so you will miss out on alot of games

    Ah there will always be a select group who will ask for the managers head after 3 games this season – but I think most are sensible. It hasnt been a great start 1 win out of 3 in the league and a victory in the Cup. But I don’t think its time to panic.

    It is clear that every team comes to us as ‘the team to beat’ – that much is obvious. The team needs to gel (because the starting 11 is completely new) and believe in their ability to overcome the desire from teams to put one over us.

    Hopefully it will come sooner rather than later. Ideally we need a finisher on the front line to assist Nugent because we are creating chances. Lets see what the next two weeks brings.

    Good luck to Hull (as I always say) – another manager now under pressure’?

    I'm sure before long the results will come thick and fast.

    Nige isn't under pressure I don't think, once we get rid of Bullard and Olofinjana, we might be able to bring a few more players in. Ideally we need a defender, a creative midfielder and a forward.

    I'm glad Pearson's job is safe because I have 95% respect for him.

    (He lost 5% for getting the mardies about Sousa coming to the play-off games.)

    The main problem with our two home games has been that teams have come and looked to play on the break and we can't break them down and create enough chances. We also need a striker because Nugent looks very isolated so far but it is early and there's plenty of time left to turn it around.

    We have exactly the same problem at home. It's very difficult to break a team down if they have 7 players behind the ball.

    Nugent wouldn't be isolated if Gallagher, King and Dyer had done their duty properly <steam>
