Mostly just relieved I didn't fork out for that shower of shite today.

Let's move on.

I just hope it's not Butterfield again.
he's a free agent, isn't he??
I think so!

Let's look at the positives from today.

We didn't concede any penalties or own goals.

Just not sure he's the man to transform things - TBH I lost faith in DF a bit the minute he made Knight captain, to improve the team from last year and to make us more solid the 1st thing he should have done is get shut of Knight not make him captain.

not sure how you get shut of knight if nobody wants to buy him... but the captain thing did seem a bit odd....
He's doesn't have to play him though does he - his (Knight's) can't be arsed / lazy attitude spreads throughout the team.

Freedman's not had much money I agree, but knowing a good CB is an absolute priority has brought in the likes of Hall, Beckford, Moritz, Tierney, Baptiste (who I would actually play at CB ahead of Knight) & Spearing (6 signings) without signing a decent CB.

A Centre Back should have been his No1 priority.

I missed the last 5 minutes because of a lost stream. Did we win?

If he'd signed a centre back and we were playing Andrews in midfield you'd be saying Spearing should have been his top priority.

Anyhow. Bad day. No point dwelling on it.

Lets go again.

Well, its clear what DF needs to do. Find us a Centre Back. I have no idea where Knight was going on the first goal. He ran forward trying to play off-side and left Wheater for dead and Baptise without cover. Mackie read Knights run perfectly. THe second was another offside attempt. We need a leader at the back in our Centre who can actually read the game.

Medo tried hard, our best player. Our worst was Chungy. The worst I have seen him play.

Without Eagles and Ngog we look toothless in attack. Not worried. Early days and we will improve.

I think you give our defence too much credit by suggesting they were trying to play offside! The first goal Zat Knight passed to a Forest player and then made no effort to get back in to position.

That defending was genuinely funny at times. Utterly woeful.

It's one thing to say the centre halfs are shit, but someone is telling Zat Knight and David Wheater to try to play offside.

Spearing was poor, the rest were shite.

How do you know he hasn't tried to buy/loan a centre back but hasn't been able to get anyone good enough? If he hasn't tried to get one in fair enough, but more than likely he's tried and hasn't had any success so far.
