    Has obviously lost the dressing room and confused the players with his tactics.

    Could think of much worse skippers. I like O'Nien for the job but I can see the logic in this. New club captain maybe?

    Dan Neil was skipper last game so who knows what the plan is!

    I also like O'Nien for it but I could see it suiting Gooch. He's got a lot of fire in the belly but seems to be mature enough to rein it in when he needs to.

    almost ran the show 1st half mind, very industrious leading the press, winning the ball, very busy...managed to hold himself back as well in the 2nd half and did the job he had to do

    It would be superb if he never played for SAFC ever again.

    Wasn't there a story about Schmeichel at Man U He used to do runs from 6yd Box to penalty spot. Apparently he had worked out a way of increasing his stats
    Don't know if true but found it slightly amusing the lengths some players go to to look good

    My biggest worry is that Lee Johnson will think the team is ready and won’t need any new signings in certain areas. On the plus side, Patterson kept a clean sheet, so technically winner stays on until he concedes imo.

    How can you allude to this as everyone knows the club is actively trying to bring new players on board.
    Or is it just beyond you to post a completely upbeat thought on our club.
