splendidrush 699 Posted October 21, 2020 Reading the comments on TWTD, many of them still think that they're too good for League 1. I'm not sure what this is based on, they've been poor for several Seasons and with their financial position hampering them further, any hopes of promotion are, at best a stretch. Good times......😎 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,735 Posted October 21, 2020 Playing in an empty stadium probably suits them as they dont have to play in front of their rancid fans First time this season they came across hald decent opposition after a favourable opening few fixtures. They'll still win a fair few as there are many poor sides in that league...but I'd expect at least Hull,Charlton and Sunderland to finish above them 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good times......😎 This comment stood out for me:- "We have a good enough squad, but not a good enough manager to get the best out of them." From being their own version of our belated Messiah to being a liability, poor old Lambert can't seem to do much right down there, despite their good start. Apparently they've been dealt a 'soft' hand by the fixture list thus far and many of them seem wary of a repeat of last season when they started like a bomb and then fell to pieces in the second half of the season. If this happens PL will likely be out of a job again? Not that I think he's particularly bothered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
......and Smith must score. 1,334 Posted October 21, 2020 I'll be surprised if they don't finish in the top six. They've got a decent enough squad to do that despite the manager. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daisy 137 Posted October 21, 2020 Same as last season, good start against some poor opposition, play a few decent teams and blow it. Still an awful team with average players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Move Klose 303 Posted October 22, 2020 Not gonna be plain sailing for them, Peterborough, Charlton, Sunderland, Hull, Portsmouth should all do quite well. Realistically 3 of those 5 and the scummers should be getting out of this league. But you only need to look at last season when Wycombe, Coventry & Rotherham went up that it's not always as straight forward as that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
