    Always sceptical of this amount of injuries when a team is struggling. If we were top of the league I bet some of these 'not 100%' would be fine.

    I’d honestly be surprised if Downs manages 3 goals this season, let alone in 1 game

    Apparently Sesay missed the Real Madrid game through this illness that everyone seems to have, and won't be involved. Sound like Aribo will be involved in some capacity. Though he's gonna be rusty af. Even if it's Jander and Downes in the middle which is best case scenario, that's two players coming off the back of an illness and Downes a knock too (apparently) so far from ideal.

    So everybody’s ill, injured, out of practice or out of form and we’re out of sorts, out of luck and almost out of players

    Eat, Drink and be Merry, for tomorrow we will be crushed <diva>

    I reckon we'll get something tomorrow, maybe even win.

    Who's going to the protest? Doubt I will.

    That's what I thought for the Blackburn game too, and they weren't even good.

    That would be a good starting point, yes.

    Just bought a ticket, even had to download the app to do it.

    The words "download the app" filled me with the same despair as the prospect of watching Saints. So God knows what I was thinking of, but £25 isn't bad imo, so ****it, UTS

    Leo is going to be a big fans favourite isn't he?

    Until he leaves in the Summer anyway.

    The thing is about Scienza is that he's something of a late bloomer, he's 27 now. So really, unless he absolutely tears the Championship a new one (in which case we'll probably end up in the play offs anyway) I don't think PL teams will be that interested in him.

    One of the relegated clubs probably will be though.

    Why would we sell to them though? If we don't go up, we've got one more season of parachute payments so essentially one more season of getting back to the PL before having to raise funds.
