No, he'll have number 12 on his back - Ryan has been given squad number 1.

Murphy, Baldock, LuaLua, Hemed, Manu, Sidwell - these are the players who should be sold or moved on in the summer depending on contract status. The defence is fine, the goalkeepers are sufficient as well. We need Premier League quality in the more advanced positions in my opinion, if we want to...

I always like your posts but we disagree on this one. Personally, I think Stockdale is good enough unless we have better lined up to come in but I think the fewer disruptions the better overall. Investment needed in attack as first priority for me personally, if we started the season with our...

You shouldn't assume I haven't. I think Gibraltar should have the choice, they voted heavily to Remain I believe. Maybe they'd like a say in their future now it went the other way. Same as with Scotland, they should have the choice of leaving the UK to remain part of the EU. I am very liberal...

No problem, Gibraltar is basically Spanish anyway. Hand it over if it gets a better deal. I would also be happy to trade off the Isles of Man and Wight too, for the greater good. The Falklands should have been handed back long ago too. Sent from my HTC One M8s using Tapatalk

It's a thankless task he's been signed for. I think he'd be better off dropping into league 1 and being a first choice pick and getting a run of games. He won't fulfil any possible potential he may be hiding all the time he's coming on for 10/15 minutes at the tail end of a game. I don't think...

We were a better team last season.

Derby had no gameplan on Friday night, he picked what was a bunch of good individuals but there was no blend as a team. The defence, midfield and attack were all totally separate. No team ethic, no cohesion and no clear plan for how they intended to pick up a result. To me it was fairly clear...

Stockdale, Bruno, Hünemeier, Dunk, Rosenior, Knockaert, Stephens, Kayal, March, Hemed, Murray Subs; Walton, Tomori, Dallison, Sidwell, Skalak, Murphy, Baldock

Tom Dallison, Ben White, Ben Hall, Fikayo Tomori.

The sad thing about this post is that it could be about any number of different players.

As others have said, I don't really have any concerns about losing a match to Newcastle. What I do have concerns about is how easily we were upstaged by a team of Premier League players. It's concerning that so many of our team weren't good enough in comparison. Of the teams which started last...

I think anyone CAN play in the Premier League. But whether we'd thrive with him in the team, I'm not sure. I'm not having a go at him, he's very solid and a class above at this level but I trust Tony Pulis' judgement, and he didn't fancy him. There's a reason for that, although I'd be happy with...

Pocognoli is obviously superior to Bong, but I don't really think that either of them are Premier League standard. If we go up, I would release Bong and sign Pocognoli but with the intention of signing a first choice left back with proven Premier League experience. They aren't easy to come by...

My boys were entered into a competition once, and we lost the first two group games without scoring. It was 1-0 in the first game, the goalkeeper was outstanding and the in the second he was a bag of nerves and we got stuff 5-0. The boys came off the pitch either crying, or close to it. We all...

That is absolutely ridiculous. Akpom start up front on his own. The boy has nothing and won't play Championship football again after leaving us. Nowhere near professional football standards but you want him to start alone up front, ahead of Murray and Hemed. You should be banned for that post.

I can tell you, if you want the spoiler. We'll beat Reading, who are ordinary at best. Organised and disciplined with a lack of quality. They'll be stubborn, not quite Cardiff, but they'll give it a go, and lose 2-0. See Leeds' visit to the Amex earlier in the season.

The whole system needs to tighten up a bit.

They don't owe anyone an apology, they were beaten by a better team. We didn't get going, but that had more to do with what they did, than it did with ourselves but I think everyone (who attends matches) would agree that it's a fair criticism to say we start slowly, and that we've been a bit...
