    To be honest, I know it’s deeply unfashionable, but I think we should be playing 4-4-2…
    No Byram?!

    Gunn
    Aarons Hanley Gibson Mclean
    Gibbs
    Sara Dowell
    Ramsay
    Sargent Pukki

    Bizarre line up for me. Nowhere near enough strength in the midfield. Desperately need Hayden fit to start

    It may sound a bit negative but I'm not fussed about going up, we lose every week and Hesgoal.com stopped streaming Premier league games.

    We get to watch the entire season other than the Carrabu Cup, easier to buy tickets and we win a few games.

    It's literally only the TV money I'm interested in for promotion

    Zero point in any of it if we dont have something to aim for. At least getting relegated every year means we have a chance of winning the following year. Yes the PL seasons are tripe, but id rather that than be Mid table mediocrity

    Stick around. Midtable mediocrity is coming.

    At the start of the season with Rashica and Tzolis still in the building, Idah and Rowe fit, I think it could have worked?

    Currently I'm not sure who you play wide in a 4-4-2 other than Onel, and the quality drop-off if Pukki or Sargent are unavailable is stark.

    It's supposed to be fun attractive football one season followed by winning the league then misery and relegation the next .

    Last season was one our worst and it's half-way through October and I haven't watched a good performance yet .

    Possibly Millwall.

    The only plus for me so far this season is that I can watch every game. Although when I see the way we are playing, I'm not sure I want to watch.

    Honestly?
    That repeatedly playing the same underperforming players in the same positions is the definition of..............

    It's a duty these days, isn't it, not a pleasure?

    Saturday night kick offs are brutal , at least with a 3 pm kick off you can put some shelves up or paint the walls to liven things up .

    Not even nerve wracking just as you say a chore.

    It doesn't feel like a win tonight and we go top

    Oh gosh, yes we do. The top two play tomorrow night. I hadn't even realised it.

    It's a sense of entitlement based on squad cost and previous seasons , I care more about performances and slick play than ugly victories.

    That's my prerogative in the prediction league.

    How about 4-4-1-1 with Teemu behind Sarge?
