    I just want to see some evidence that he's beginning to change things. Whether that's personnel, tactics, tempo, something, anything.

    If not, how long does he realistically get if it's becoming ever more apparent that he's not actually achieving anything different?

    Doesn’t come as a surprise, unfortunately. Misses more games than he plays.

    Thanks mate. Didnt realise it was common that’s quite worrying! Really unpleasant like coughing and spluttering to the where you’re sick was bad enough but the shortness of breathe and crackling coming out of my mouth when I breathe out was quite scary considering my age and the age I’ve never smoked.

    Never tested positive for COVID once either but had a few of the jabs

    We didn't play poorly against Ipswich but we're very slow predictable and to be honest after what we've been used to a bit dull.
    Want to see some signs of urgency and pace in our play on Friday just something to show the last few games aren't as good as it gets
    Oh and 3 points is a must

    Michael Beale says that Aji Alese has had a slight issue today in training and had to be brought off.

    Still waiting to find out the extent as Beale had come straight in to do the press.

    Either Seelt or Pembele.

    What is it with us and Leftbacks that constantly get injured. Its been a problem position for me ever since i started supporting the club.

    Alese always seems to be injured too. I think we just go 3 back now with Hume RM and Clarke LM. Rather that than Hume LB.

    Think I’d probably go with Ballard/O’nien/Hume then Clarke and Ba wide.

    Not to be the pessimist but the recurrence of injuries with some of the lads makes me wonder played a part in how we were able to get them so cheap with a sell on clause

    Pembele didn't look fit when he came on v Preston. Did one run then even Bellingham looked quicker... and that's saying something <laugh>
