    Starting to stretch out now toward the top of the table. Brom, Leeds, Preston and Forest all won, but Hull, Brum and Charlton above us all lost with QPR only managing a point.

    A win by 7 clear goals tomorrow will put us in 9th. <laugh>

    This is w
    The League will even itself out as it progresses but of the teams City have played so far only WBA have looked a decent team. All the rest have been decidedly average including swansea and Bristol.

    Sadly I have to accept City are poor this season which is all self inflicted and should have been totally avoidable.

    Each time I see the EFL highlights swansea seem to be the fortunate recipients of outrageous fortune. Sheff Wed and Leeds gifting them some of the worst goals you’ll see all season by way of example.

    Just watched the Leicester game against arsenal,a few years ago we were beating them ,so I ask myself why what are they doing different to us,i can tell you the answer is management,fantastic attacking football and in Jamie vardy a gem,what have we got madine,things have got to change we need a young manager with up to date ideas of playing an entertaining style of football,and letting the fans turn up to enjoy their football club again,not the dribble being served up at the moment.

    I watched that Leicester/Arsenal game on Saturday too. Thoroughly enjoyed the whole game as an impartial spectator - I bet the Leicester fans enjoyed it even more.

    Brilliant quick passing football from the Leicester players both managed off the field, and coached from the touchline by Rodgers.

    Yes they have the players to compete, but that was all about management at a different level. We are light years away from even thinking of emulating that sort of style.

    Baggies and dirty Leeds pulling away closely followed by Fulham. Looks like the best we can hope for is a play off place before the season is half over.

    2 tough games for us next week, away at Brentford and Leeds. 2 or 3 points from those 2 would be an achievement.

    Ouch. And we thought we took a beating there.

    Goal difference worse than us too.

    Cant imagine hearing from our noisy neighbours today.

    As has been repeatedly said, its a long old season.
    Im sure they'll be above us again before the end of the season.
    THEN expect a visit.
