    Stuey and Theo out for another 1-2 weeks according to Ralph. Ralph is not rushing them back which I'm pleased to hear. Really don't need Armstrong picking up another injury straight away.

    The important message is that it sounds like we won’t be rushing people back in general and feel we can afford not to

    Exception being central midfield I think

    too many people were rushed back last season

    Exactly the sort of thing The Blessed Nigel of Adkins would have said, tbf.

    I have been surprised by Saints so far. This has all the makings of a 3-2 defeat with the press waxing lyrical over 'plucky' saints

    It's a game similar to the MU one pointer. Written off by the majority but actually more than a few thought we could/should have won at the end of the day. I'll enjoy anything but abject defeat.

    In fairness, I have tended to enjoy our games against City.

    A run like that comes to an end at some point. So let's hope it's our lads that do just that. Have a feeling they will.

    We'll be fine: Lawro has us down to lose 4-0. No false dawn there, then
