    Yet another Saturday afternoon without a game for us. Perhaps we can have a general chat and watch how the Swans and County get on today.

    Wife and sister out again this afters bashing the plastic so I'm here with my laptop, a glass and a bottle of "fun"......<laugh>

    Didn't bother with a bet on City last night - the odds were too short on us to win - am I glad!! <doh>

    So let's have a little go this afternoon on some of the others in the Championship. Just looked for an interesting combo so have done a £15 treble on both teams to score in the Brentford/Sheff Wed, Hull/Fulham and Forest/Sunderland games - £81 return if it happens.

    Anyone out there?

    Thought Healey looked decent when he came on last night. Also think we really need to solve the serious lack of possession - Tomlin is a player that would thrive if we were able to keep the ball. Strengthening in the midfield really needed!

    Camp
    Manga Morrison Bamba Bennett
    Paterson Ralls Bryson Hoilett
    Healey Zohore

    Any thoughts?

    Got a feeling Camp may get the nod after Warnock's comment about Etheridge at fault for the goal.

    In fact I like your team altogether if they're all fit. I'm glad you haven't got Mendez in there. He needs a spell on the bench and Healey looks the real deal as a poacher.

    On the evidence last night, Tomlin is nowhere near match fit to start, but he didn't get much help from his team mates either to be fair.

    The big question is will Warnock switch to a 4-4-2 to accomodate Zohore and Healey up front leaving him a bit light in midfield?

    The past two games have left Zohore denied of any decent service - he looks cut off from the rest of the team with Damour, NML and Feeney unable to muster any sufficient service. Although I don't rate Morrison, his injury has coincided with our drop off in form so he must be doing something right.

    But as mentioned on other threads, we have had a fantastic 2017 and will finish well above what was expected in the summer. Full praise to you Mr Warnock <applause>

    Well, Derby won dropping us to 4th but at least both Leeds and Sheff Utd lost so we're still in there.

    Going to have a look at the Wurzel game on the box this evening. Anyone want them to beat Wolves to keep us in touch with the top spot?.....<laugh>

    We've still got to play both of them at home yet so that's an easy 6 points.......<whistle>

    When you say things like “top spot” Sparkey, Doris goes all goosy pal! :emoticon-0103-cool:

    Missed this post earlier.

    Bristol got their normal opponent sent off, must have been a shock to have one off themselves.

    Glad to see Wolves win, this board would have been unbearable if the Robins were bobbing along <yikes>

    So we see the new year just 1 point off the automatic spot <applause><applause><applause>

    A point off autos. Something only in dreams back in the summer.

    We need to turn this corner sharpish though.

    I don't know about biting your hand off, I'd be enjoying the shoulder by now. :1980_boogie_down::1980_boogie_down:
