    Had no doubts near the end and when Howard remembered to blow for full time it was 3 points well-earned. The defence was great but our midfield is useless as their priority is aiding the aforesaid defence. Crap to watch but we get the target..a win. MON has to show us his mettle in the Jan window. Dying to see who we get and if they're all defenders and crab (I mean crab) mid-fielders then I'm going to stab meself!!!! I can't remember the last time we really thrashed anybody. Not even Reading, that was hanging on at 2-0 when they had a good chance with a header...fingernail biting stuff. No.......... a whole hearted thrashing. Anybody? Pity the skunks pinched a win.

    Surely if all us fans can see whats req'd our manager can.

    We need an attack minded big physical pacy box to box CM. Getting one in however is another matter. Hope MON has had he's scouts out since the summer window to put this right.

    I'm not so sure he can as he persists with the same system and team members.

    No doubt he sees it but recruiting the quality players to produce it is the sticking point. I think we went for more players in the July window but the level of wage they wanted from the start would not wash. Bloody Bosman.

    I think Colback is the weakest link in our side at the moment. Backwards and sideways appear to be the only directions he can go. If we can get that midfielder to complement Cattermole in January then I'll be happy!! If
