Edwards at left-back, which says everything about how he rates Tymon! Rightly so. Tymon is useless. Seems almost certain that we will start the season 4-3-3 which for me, even at this early stage, means limited goal threat and reliance upin clean sheets. I'm looking forward to visiting new grounds but I'm really struggling to share the optimism for our team and manager

It says everything you've been saying for the last god knows how many days. We have a group of players behind the first XI you wouldn't trust to tie a shoelace or cross a road. Is the 'first 11' that good in reality? 6 or 7 are decent at this level. 4 or 5 are bang average or worse. It's a debate worth having I reckon. I'm not sure which way I'd fall on it right now. I've said before that I thought the best road for us to go down was a Graham Potter type and a bomb putting on the squad and starting again. I'll let you start the thread...

Darren fucking Fletcher and Berahino back in the fold! 11/2 at this stage on us winning the Championship is possibly the worst price ever offered by bookmakers. I share the concern. Where is the unfounded optimism coming from?

The first XI is fine, it's when you get just beyond that, it becomes absolutely bloody awful. Which 5 of the first XI do you think are bang average or worse at this level?

Where is the unfounded optimism coming from? Absolutely no idea Dave and with little time left in the window, I'm getting a bit edgy.

And Fletcher again ahead of Cameron and Sorensen But it'd still be a surprise if he figured much once we sign a new midfielder. I'd have 10 men ahead of playing Cameron.

Fletcher won’t be near the team come the start of the season.

Looks like we won’t be hitting the ground running this start of the season.....but then what’s new. Every year we seem to be unsettled and undercooked.

Shouldn't set up too much stall by friendlies but two things stand out: Persistence with the shape. Berahino and Fletcher (suppose that's three things)

I think it’s needs must at the moment, but I would hope Rowett would see he’s now not fit for purpose.

There is no way on gods earth we'll go through a season with badou, allen, etebo and a.n.other costing several million. If another central midfield player arrives, badou will depart
