Contrary to all the negativity on this MB, Williams has improved the team.
I'm not convinced all our "improvement" is down to us; I think the opposition has also deteriorated.
Jack has been much better the last 2 matches and kept us in the games.

I have been able to stream every match so far, after worrying whether it would be possible all summer. Also, Williams, Adobe, and Ince look like good additions to the squad. And we picked up two points from three despite looking like the weaker team in every game. How do you stream? I couldn't find a site for the Brentford match.

Would you rather start strong and fade away when it matters like Leeds have done for many years or start slow, build momentum and finish with a wet sail? In the last promotion year I remember Stoke playing Sheffield Utd on a Friday night at home in Dec I think. It was an awful game and we lost 1-0 to a James Beatie goal. That day I was so down after watching that game. But hey we got better , put some good performances together and the rest is history. It’s still early and I think Rowett is a good manager who will galvanise the team and we will go up. if we don’t do it this season we will go up next. We have to be positive. It was Gary Cahill who scored. Think it was only a few weeks later we went thwre place and put 3 past them. That defeat was definitely the catalyst in our season that year.

A Saturday tea time game if I remember around mid November. We were crap and sat around mid table at that point. It was a freak season though in terms of us getting automatic promotion with 79 points. In recent seasons that has just about got you a play off spot.
