1 point from 3 games. Another great start to the season for Argyle.

Ouch. Cov haven’t looked like scoring at all this season, but your boys helped them find a way.

Things seem a little bit all over the place at Wednesday at the moment, Luhukay's inherited a large, disjointed squad that needs a fair bit of surgery still (and Kieran Lee and Gary Hooper back from injury ASAP) and there's not much in the way of a game changer in terms of pace and only Forestieri's the real player we have that can unlock the opposition defence. Needs a couple of loan signings now we can make them, but also need to shift some of the bloat that obviously aren't in the plans (Abdi, David Jones, and seemingly Westwood's been outcasted for financial reasons which is a damn shame). A poor result in midweek and the atmosphere will be even worse than it is already, the two playoff seasons have ramped up the expectations with the fanbase big time and it seems to have brought out the worst in a growing number of supporters.

The under-23 lads that have been in and around the squad have done well but they're not quite ready for the regular rigours of Championship football and need time to ease themselves in. Just hope we can pick up a bit of form as the September - October run of fixtures is going to be very tough.

What is iFollow and how will it impact the way we watch the Football League?

I have a bad feeling that Leeds are gonna thump Swansea tonight.

[Matt]

2 games in 3 days worries me with the intensity we play at. I'd have liked a change or two to keep the team fresh but then Bielsa has forgotten more about football than I'll ever know

[FLiam]

Swansea are almost unrecognisable now. 

That McBurnie was utter dog shite for me on FM, so I cannot imagine he's any good in real life...

[Matt]

Well. That's been coming.

[Matt]

That's more like it. Looked much better since the substitution.

[Gorka]

Decent half.

Would have been decent of Olsson to actually press the fullback running at him for the goal but whatever.

I'll take a point. We're gonna need a couple of loan signings though. We can't expect to keep getting points with no natural centre halves and dragging Phillips off (rightfully so) meant that Klich wasn't as effective so we could do with an extra body in holding midfield. 

 

Still I'd have taken 10 points and being top off the league after those first 4 games

Indeed.

[Baddar]

Ouch

 

[FLiam]

Pablo Hernandez’s goal for Leeds last night was really satisfying.

I hate him simply for his low socks and shinpad combo...he's such a Sol Campbell

Cunt.

Stoke City 0-3 Wigan Athletic

[Colly]

I backed Stoke to win the Championship.

[FLiam]

Brentford playing a very fine game against Aston Villa here too. Although arguably, they should have had a player sent off at the end of the first half.

[Cymbols]

More than arguably! Most blatant stamp you'll see all season.

Ball is long gone. Dirty prick.
