Some people too quick to write players off. Nichols has looked good in glimspes. Just needs to start having more impact. Agree with the Nichols comment GGMI .... also he is a striker and is being played out on the wing. Give the lad a game alongside Gaffney and then let's comment ! He played as a striker against Peterborough, Bury and Oldham.

Ellis' 3 misses were in the last four he took, if I'm reading the data correctly! I did say when they were both on the pitch. He has missed his last 2(For us anyway) Against Peterborough last season and today. When we've had a penalty and Ellis has been on the pitch,he has generally taken it. Ala Chelsea. The snake and Ellis weren't actually on the pitch at the same time, much at all, having looked at those stats. Anyway, its pretty meaningless.

Our next six league games don't get much easier - Blackpool, Portsmouth, Plymouth, Northampton, Oxford and Shrewsbury.

5 defeats already in mid September. Conceding goals for fun. I'm not optimistic. Yes DC needs to take a long look at himself with no activity in the last transfer window most stupid comment today, how many players did he sign 8 or 9 ??

But DC failed to recruit for two key positions. A defensive midfielder to offer some cover to a back 4 and a wide player who would give him the option of playing 4-4-2.

It comes on the back of a disappointing home loss, but today was just one of those days.
Away to a good side, a debatable sending off and then they score straight away. Always going to be extremely tough after that.
Obviously we still have defensive things to work on. I'm confident we will improve
Things not going our way. Our squad needs to show some bottle, but that's one thing I think most will agree that we have in this squad.
On to the next one.

I think Nichols would be best along-side a big striker in a 4-4-2 formation but we don'y have the players to play that formation so I can see a frustrating season for the lad. I agree that is where he would be best suited and I agree that we won't play 4-4-2 much as we have a lack of wingers.

Anyone who text radio Bristol doubting if DC is good enough at this level. Please kindly f**k off. It is too early to be writing him off and it is a joke to be doing so.

Be interesting to see where we are in the table after those games considering we are only 3 points off the relegation zone.

He said 11 new players what he signed was 8 which 4 of them are hardly used we are still 4/5 players short if you ask me I think some signings he makes are just too keep the fans happy that we've signed someone

Let's not forget last season we conceded the same amount or more than 3 relegated sides and currently have the joint worst goals against in the division this season.

Yes we need to score a lot of goals to compensate for all the goals were conceding

Yes we need to score a lot of goals to compensate for all the goals were conceding We don't even have a regular genuine goalscorer upfront. If Billy gets marked out of the game we struggle. What other genuine match winners do we have or someone to conjure some magic and create something out of nothing? I'm struggling to think of any.
