    Don’t remember posting here but got the notification.

    Anyway, the game you beat us at Loftus Road last season Walker-Peters started on the left and whoever was on the right had a torrid time for a bit before going off injured. Walker-Peters switched to the right and was the best player on the pitch. Bloke looks wasted here on the left.

    So we can all show our appreciation to Russ as we earn our first points in a 3-2 win against united.

    It won't be today, no one expected to win today. It will be nect weekend if we don't beat Ipswich at home. Anything other than 3 points and people will be fuming.

    People will talk about the passing style and that has cost us this season but today has showed the bigger problem. Martin can't organise a defence and his teams have always conceded a lot of goals.

    Can't blame Martin for today. Good tactics and positive selection. Also freshened it up in the second half.

    Yeah he's definitely wasted a bit on the left but we bought a right back in presumably on the assumption he was leaving but he ended up staying which left us with an issue as he's too good to leave out.

    Agreed. Only fair criticism of Martin today is that this should have been the line up against Forest.

    Agree with this but I don't think it's fair to blame him for today really.

    I’m blaming him today. Silly beard. Silly t-shirts.

    You simply can’t stay up with a manager looking like a divorced dad with a questionable past trying to attract younger women at an Essex nightclub.

    He is dating Lucy Pinder though, he’s doing okay!

    Didn’t know that. Take it all back. He’ll be staying up then even if the club don’t.

    He’s failing his premier league audition spectacularly so far.

    Improved selection today though so that’s promising.
