    We won't have to worry about loosing players in January cos who would want any of them way they are playing. None of the new lads look anything above league one and mowatt and woodrow aren't exactly pulling up any trees. The spreadsheet wont be ballanced in January thats for sure!!!

    I don’t think there’s a lot between the two teams the main difference is the standard of the league we are in.
    Last season we made loads of chances but only converted a small %.
    It strikes me it’s just harder to score in this league.

    But the point is they are playing well so any suiters aren't buying the team they look at individuals.What I've seen so far is a squad of very talented players.In recent weeks they are starting to look like a decent team.Results will come.

    The defence are doing well considering they know if one is conceded we'll probably lose. I still think it would be a better unit if Pinnock was in there though. He's a class act and that will eventually be realised at Brentford. We can't field a strike pair anywhere near as dangerous as Moore and Woodrow were, so there's your answer to the strength of the forward line.

    What a difference a week makes. It appears, and not for the first time, that I may have been talking b0110cks.

    Very harsh on Styles, considering his age!

    Styles can pass the ball and find a red shirt, which some of the team seem to find very difficult to do.

    I thought Styles and Wilks got us back in to the game last night.

    Pinnock and Lindsay might not be pulling up any trees at their new clubs. They might find getting reacquainted with this level a bit tougher than last season, which is fair enough.

    Their job is being made much harder by the fact that they've been split up and the understanding that they had fostered over time is no longer there for either to rely on.

    Not only is that detrimental to their personal progress but to ours as well.

    It may be that 2 of the current 3 form such an understanding, but we could be in league one by then.

    Last season we had players that championship clubs wanted, this season we have players that championship clubs didn't want.

    Definitely weaker for me.
