    I heard we're lining up Truss with Kwarteng as assistant.

    Gino is after a safe pair of hands who'll only need a mini-budget to make a difference.

    Truss - We will sign a right back

    Gino - can I have a word Liz

    Truss - We are happy with what we have

    Truss - We will upgrade defence

    Gino - cough cough

    Truss - We have solid foundations here already

    Truss - We will not sell Pedro, Sarr, Louza or Asprilla in January

    Gino - erm Liz.....

    Truss - oh for chuffs sake, Jeremy take over.

    Hunt - Sell everything!!

    What a silly move by McLean .

    Team just gone 1-0 down and he does that to get himself sent off .

    Luton don’t need more help!

    Yes you're quite right, Sofascore seemingly awarding Blackburn an extra win...

    Theres two teams within 2-3 points of the play offs who have also lost more games then the bottom side too! The teams placed 7th to 9th all have negative goal difference! Like you say its mad and probably a good indicator that the overall quality in this league isnt that high. Any team that can show some consistency and manage to prolong it for decent spells will romp this league.

    Actually, looking at the table and Rotherham in particular - only 3 losses and 13 conceded in 14 games, it wasnt a too bad point we got there after all

    Lootown flying up the divison with another win tonight. Norwich have now lost three on the spin. Lot of strange results tonight. Ironically, we need to beat Millwall and Lootown now to move above them! I guess it makes Sunday's fixture a little bit more spicy, that is if we don't slip up tomorrow night.

    Only four teams have lost fewer games than us. Of those four teams we have beaten two, drawn with one and play the fourth at the weekend.
    All very strange.

    Could it work out that Luton go top with a win on Sunday?

    Probably about the same chance of us being 3rd with 26pts Sunday afternoon with three straight wins. Could happen, but it more than likely won't. On top of that, a lot of other results have to their/our way.

    Will be very interesting to see which club goes up with Burnley & L**** this season.

    Enjoying this division, much better than the Prem for fun and open play. Any team can beat another one and that fact it isnt taken so seriously is brilliant. I would say it is the best division in the world competition wise and the quality of football isnt too bad either.

    Very high risk move from Wolves in my opinion. QPR do look good this season, but he's managed 14 games in his career - far far too early to gauge whether he's PL quality. Although he probably does speak Portuguese from when he was an assistant in Brazil which probably puts him ahead of most other candidates.

    And a depressing climbdown, after so many were convinced they'd get Loptegui

    Ian Beale has turned down the Wolves job, not that it matters to us as we’re fighting a different battle to QPR.

    Good for him. It’d be hard to leave the billionaires of QPR.

    A very good appontment, highly regarded and was the brains behind Gerrards work at Rangers and last season with Villa when they were doing well. Keep an eye on this guy, going places.

    Oh definitely, he's been a very highly regarded coach with extensive experience in a variety of cultures for years now (in fact I'm surprised it's taken this long for him to get a managerial job), but coaching and managing are different beasts (albeit with similarities), so whilst I do believe he's gonna be a good manager with a good career in the game, it was risky for Wolves to come to that decision after 14 games!

    Give him the hotseat at the Vic after Bilic gets the boot on Sunday. We'll soon break him and ruin his career.

    Another 4 goal afternoon for Burnley :oops:

    Tbf I haven't even looked at the results for today. If we win tomorrow I might take a look but I'm only interested in Watford really, especially considering our situation. We are not going up this season we know that, so I say let the better sides battle it out. We might not even exist in three or so years time the way we are going off the pitch financially wise. Right now, at this point in our history league position could be meaningless.

    I mean, you've kind of written a manifesto for immediately ignoring all football in its entirety there, which would be a fair enough response, but also make your heavy administrative involvement in a club's fan forum a little anachronistic :eek:
