  1. Now there is a name - Kevin Friend -I had hoped we would never hear again. Always worried when he refereed us because things never went our way. Some things never change.
  2. Whilst I appreciate this is a transitional period and patience is required I am slightly concerned that Thorup is now asking the players what they need to do to get out of this rut. Is this because he is new to the league or that he doesn’t know what to do.
  3. He has almost completed his first year in post doesn’t seem possible.
  4. Just goes to prove their are young English managers about who can get an average side playing well they outplayed us last season.
  5. That was a high tackle in rugby so would definitely be a sending off but with this referee it wasn’t even a foul.
  6. Hit the post with seconds remaining - brilliant.
  7. Hope Ayling gets a welcome as well tried to take lumps out of Sainz in our last encounter.
  8. Whilst I am not a big fan of Long he was left exposed on more than one occasion last night by some woeful defending. Surely someone on the coaching side could see their long early ball and organised the defence accordingly.
  9. If we continue improving just wonder how long can we keep Knapper and Thorup before the Premier boys come calling.
  10. Shortly after their second goal there was an almost identical situation when the Derby player was ruled offside. Can’t help thinking Howard Webb is out of his depth as head of the PGMOL. Inconsistent is the only word to sum up the PGMOL.
  11. Where did I say I wanted anyone replaced.
  12. Under his coaching has our defence improved No, has the midfield improved No, has the striker force improved No, has our passing improved No, has our ball possession improved No. We are still unable to beat an aggressive press preferring to tip tap it around the back four inviting more pressure. But that’s just my opinion.
  13. Can’t say I have been that impressed with his input.
  14. Some things never change, why is it we can’t play against a team with an aggressive press. We couldn’t under Farke,Smith or Wagner is it down to poor coaching or poor tactics. Whilst I am not against Thorup Swansea and Bristol City last season proved there are good young British coaches out there who seem to achieve more with less than we have.
