    I'm getting these in, before gaffer starts fecking things up!!
    After the Leicester win, we follow it up with a convincing 3-1 win over the hoops!! Redruth and Nuggets like the hoops apparently :1980_boogie_down:

    Top and 15 points clear of Southampton in second going into this one. Who’d have thunk it?

    Blimey, had to scroll down to find this thread.

    hopefully 2-1 home win. QPR fans are resigned to getting thrashed here so I can only see a edgy win for us.

    I think we’ll carry on the momentum from the end of last night and put in a good shift.

    2-0 Town.

    COYB!!!

    Saints fan here. Huge respect for what you've done so far this season. If it wasn't for you, us, Leicester and Leeds would be over the hill and off into the distance with us and Leeds battling for 2nd. We've managed to cut the gap between our clubs from 12 to 5 points in the last 3 games so those headlights are getting bigger in your rearview mirror!

    If it wasn't for the fact we're in direct competition for the autos, I would be rooting for you. But I do think we're a huge threat to you now. 16 games unbeaten. We've only conceded 9 in our last 15 games. Our squad depth is immense. Our subs destroyed Swansea yesterday. If you manage to hold off both us and Leeds I will be mightily impressed.

    True but you played us at the right time. Now we've adjusted to Martin's style we look good, particularly at home. I look forward to the return fixture on April Fool's day. :)

    Hopefully a return to winning ways for us. I'm also going for a 2-1 Ipswich home win.

    Morsy now suspended which is a blow. Luongo and Taylor for central midfield. Wonder if he might start Broadhead up front with Chaplin and Harness as the 10s. Ladapo doesn’t seem to be in favour and Jackson works hard but there’s not much end product

    Nuggets doesn't need a rest, although his Queen, Redruth, might!!

    We are just enjoying it while it lasts, last season you were playing Man City, Liverpool etc while we were playing FGR and Stanley with largely the same team as we have now so we are having fun.

    To be honest, there's not much end product from Hirst either. If Jacko started as many games as Hirst he'd probably have the same number of goals. Jackson came on against Leicester and did what Ladapo won't....keep running and closing down. Kayden closed their keeper down loads of times, forcing him to kick long because he was blocking the square pass to the CB.

    Ladapo is the best striker we have with back to goal, played to feet and hold up play but he doesn't do the hard yards like the other two. I can see why McKenna uses Jackson a lot. The striker in his setup isn't there to score goals, but open the chances for others.

    Can't agree that Ladapo is the best striker we have with his back to goal and holding up play. Hirst is superior to Ladapo in all aspects imo, maybe apart from finishing, where neither are world beaters tbh!! Yes Jackass runs a lot but that's pretty much it, you might as well play mo Farrah if you want someone who runs all day long!!
    I would say we will probably sign 1 striker on a permanent badis and then another 1 or 2 in on loan.
