    I still get the feeling that the club would like to see Rusyn go (perhaps on a loan that may lead to a sale) and bring two in, being Mendy and another. Whether any of it materialises remains to be seen mind. Absolutely brilliant though that Mayenda has relieved some of that immediate pressure and strengthened our bargaining position (perhaps not for a Prem loan mind).

    Always maintained loans block our own kids from progressing, If we get Mendy or whoever then we need to have a bit of faith in our own recruits.

    Great start for Le Bris. Players seem to know their jobs, appear to have got hunger and desire again and have obviously been working on set pieces with the coaching staff. Night and day from Dodds and Proctor omnishambles. :emoticon-0148-yes:

    There was a lot said about how Sheff Wed had played last week and how Rohl has them playing. That's fair enough but he seemed to be quite confused today and didn't seem to be able to catch up with what has happening.

    That may be because the players aren't that good or perhaps he's not as smart as he thought.

    Back home and all I can say is

    How bloody good was that? The team to a man absolutely battered Wednesday.

    A class performance

    So quite an enjoyable day, even managed to rip myself off. I was persuaded to go for the two pint option for me and my mate before realising no more season discount. So I paid £22 for me and my mate to have beer in vases and one Pepsi max. This isn’t a dig by the way but I will be having beers outside the ground now because there isn’t anything to entice us in.
    Football wise I couldn’t give you a man of the match, like I couldn’t tell you who was our worst. I would give it to Bellingham basically because that wasn’t the same player that ended last season, gave his all but did the simple things too, instead of over elaborating

    Just back in the house. What a performance that was. Absolutely did not see that coming. Jobe, Rigg & Mayenda outstanding

    Screenshot_20240818-161452.png Is much easier than other sites just press upload a file, then choose file, then pick the picture from your files. If the file is too large you can get round it by screenshotting the picture and that should work :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Couldn’t believe how calm and relaxed he was on the ball. Going to be some player that lad.
