That's a hilariously **** goal for Leicester to concede

 

They look very poor, even more damning how we ****ed it up last week.

 

Faes is a really poor CB. One of the biggest factors in their relegation two years ago, and yet here he still is.

If his back header last week had been either side of the keeper, he'd have handed us the three points.

 

Tonight is looking really bad for Saints. If we throw away 2 goal lead against this lot we are gonners

 

We’ll know exactly where we are 5pm 9th Nov

 

Second match in a row that Leicester bring on an attacker for the defender when two goals down in the second half.

We respond to that tactical change by bringing on Ryan Fraser and conceding three goals. Forest respond to that tactical change by bringing on an extra CB and easily seeing out the win. Very easily.

Big difference.

We didn't even bother to select a third CB in our squad.

 

Be interesting to see how Ipswich do against them next week.

 

Good point. If we don't have 5 points on the board minimum then we may as well pack up.

 

Brentford 2 Ipswich 2

 

Ipswich get the equaliser despite being down to 10 men in the 69th minute. They still have that fight to the end spirit.

 

Brentford 4-3 Ipswich - Mbeumo 90+6'

 

Just seen that. 10 minutes added. I thought it was over.

 

Keeps us within one game of 17th in theory.

 

FT: Brentford 4-3 Ipswich

Wonder if McKenna is/will be getting the same **** as Martin. Might take a look

 

I hope not. Doing a much better job!

 

So still at least 3 teams without a win then

 

Had a quick look at their forums. He's getting quite a bit of **** for no wins in the first nine games. However, a lot more **** being directed at their GK, Muric, who they say they never want to see playing ever again and has been a total waste of a signing

 

The should be directing their anger at those in charge of their recruitment, rather than at Muric. Did no-one at that club watch him for Burnley last season? He was awful.

I said in the summer that whilst I was a little jealous at some of their signings, I wouldn't have gone anywhere near Muric. Laughably bad signing.

It would have been like someone looking at Bazunu after we got relegated and deciding to recruit him as their no.1.

 

I can't say I'm surprised about Muric!

 

That draw for Wolves is so much more than just a point. The momentum which they can now take from that into their run of games vs Palace, Saints, Fulham, Bmouth, Everton, West Ham, Ipswich and Leicester (taking them right up the Xmas day).

They absolutely did not want to be heading into those games with their confidence on the floor - which might have happened if Brighton's 2-0 lead had, say, turned into 4-0.

I wouldn't be surprised if they now jump out of the relegation zone either next weekend or the weekend after. And if they do, they might not return back.
