What's going on with Ostigard? Superb for Coventry last season and wanted again by Robins last summer, but seemingly not fancied by O'Neill? I'd be asking to go back if I was him and I'd tell O'Neill to shove his ridiculous team selections up his arse

Chair is a handful. Decent player. He is, we need someone to sit on him.

I think he’s been massively overrated on here and Twitter by our fans but his last few games for us he’s been fine and didn’t deserve to be dropped for Chester. Fox shouldn’t be playing at CB. Ostigard is a more solid defender than Wilmott but Wilmott can be better with the ball at his feet (although he's had some mares). You don't rate Ostigard for the same reason you don't rate Batth - you don't like old school defenders. Fox's best performances for us have been at left CB and he's more mobile than Chester and a better fit than either Ostigard or Wilmott in that position. All good.

Would say Fox best performances have been at Left back in a back four Left footer so should bring balance

Cmon Stoke, we have to win in London at some point, why not today Because they'll play better than us What’s that got to do with anything? We’ve won plenty of games when second best and visa versa. Having said that I do think we’ll probably lose the game, but remain optimistic as ever.

Exactly. I don't get the wrap him in cotton wool sentiments on here. He's a fucking professional footballer. He's no Kevin Ellison or Wes Hoolahan , spring chicken, get bloody on with it. How soft are today's players? Liverpool were champions in 65-66 when players tackled hard on frozen pitches and they used just 14 players all 42 match season, plus Cup matches, etc. It's not about being soft or not. All professional athletes are pushed much harder fitness-wise these days in comparison to the 60s. Not that I'm saying it's harder now - just trying to add a bit of balance. Maybe it's a moot point given we know much more about diets, tracking fitness etc. Either way, it's not as simple as making comparisons to 50+ years ago.

I love old school defenders so that’s just shit. And that’s nonsense re Fox. He’s been awful at CB but very good at left back.

Looking decent so far. I imagine next half will be our shit held, I don't think we've managed 2 good halfs more than once a year

Fletcher and Campbell back together again. Also prefer that back 3 with fox on the left it looks more natural. No Chester thank god. We will get overrun in midfield and have 40% possession We usually win with less possession stats Called it today. 35% possession and 3 points. 😄👍👍

For us to get a result like that with a weakened line up, eg he's having to play people coming back from injury from the start, Batth, fox and wilmot no where near his first choice back line, just shows what an excellent manager we have.
Big bonus is Ty getting a good hour in him and showing he's getting near to his old self, brilliant goal
