    1 point off Ipswich in 3rd with a game in hand as it stands, if we win our game in hand we’ll be 5 off off second.
    Dare to dream!

    After that nasty tackle from Gibson on NML earned him a yellow, I want to see NML get at him more to try and exploit any hesitation and/or force a red like Festy did in one of last season’s games

    He’s played in multiple positions. We need more Orks but at 5’5’’ and only 60 kg White is a hobbit.

    One year ago we were about as depressed with our situation as we could be - today we are fourth in the league and a decent side with kids and old pros - we are unlikely to make top two but we can certainly be involved in the play offs. So we March on.

    A few short months ago, we were on the brink of extinction. 
    Now, some are demanding all of the available budget is spent, right up to the agreed limit, which we're supposedly well within.
    We won't get to carry the surplus forward to next year, so we might as well spend it now, is an argument I've seen on here today.
    Such past largesse is what's seen us in this mess, how about we support Clowes and don't demand he puts in every last penny he's budgeted, and instead spends his money wisely?

    The first game in 2023 that we haven't won and the end of a 19 game unbeaten run in all competitions. Meh.
    Let's focus on getting the hell out of League One.

    Put everything right on Saturday and tonights' performance will soon fade from the memory. PW and his staff need to work their magic

    Calling us naive. We're having a go. We're trying to play football. West Ham so far from brilliant. Brilliant would put us 2,3 or 4 down. Crap, biased pundits.

    TomG reacted to Ramarena in Luke McGee - Goalkeeper on loan until end of season   
    Seems a decent move. We probably needed someone who can come in and do a solid job if Wildsmith is out for any reason, so makes sense from that angle, especially with the try before you buy a loan brings. 
    It does restrict our loan options to one more, however we may have no intention of bringing anymore loans in.
    Good luck to the lad and welcome to the club!

    "...Warne said of the owner: "I think he's enjoying it. He was pretty buzzing with the Tuesday night game.
    "Because he's a fan first and foremost, he can't stop smiling. It's a bit rude of me to speak for him, but I still think at times he can't believe he owns it and I know how proud that makes his dad because he was a massive Derby fan.
    "And there's a part of it where he loves being up there, but misses being with the fans. In the same way when my wife and daughter comes to games, they sort of sit away from it a little bit whereas my son is full hoolie.
    "He goes to every away game he can. He loves being on the terracing. In fairness, that game the other night when that winning goal goes in, there's nowhere else in the world I'd rather be than in that bit for that one minute. It's priceless.
    "As an owner, you miss that because he would have been in there wouldn't he? So there's a bit of him going 'that's amazing' and another where he wants to run up and down the directors' box going woo-hoo.
    "You would though wouldn't you because that's what he's done for the last 40 years of his life. But everything he touches turns to gold at the moment.
    "If you own a football club for 20 years, there are bad times, horrendous times, good times and amazing times on a cycle. There's not one club in the Premier League who have had 20 years of joy. They've all had pain and suffering. But at the moment, if he's not in a good place now, and we haven't lost since October, I've got absolutely no chance have I?!"

    The decimation of the Academy due to Administration is clear to see. Oppo fans who claim the club hasn't been punished enough will be oblivious to this, but for the next couple of seasons we're playing catch-up at all levels. We'll get there in time though because it's clear there's some quality coming through even if they're out of their depth as teams at the moment. If the coaches keep the kids focus on continuing their development without dwelling on results too much they'll get through this.

    "...We're trying to bring a striker in that suits us and suits the way we play. If we can't, then we can't, there's no point in just going to get a striker for strikers' sake. The January window means it's like every striker turns into Ibrahimovic. Anyone who's available is the best striker ever and obviously, he isn't.
    "But then that's the problem with January and I don't like the January window. It is literally there for mistakes that have been made in the previous summer because that's really what you're doing which is trying to correct what went wrong.
    "I don't think there's a lot wrong with the side that's been put together in the summer. I've said on the record loads of times that what Liam and the team did before we got here was really impressive. We have a substantial amount left of the budget available but it has to improve what we've got and if it isn't going to improve what we got then I'm not going to spend it."
