Dead certs to go down when he took over.

They will do ok under his tutilidge. He seems to have that knack with no hopers.

I added that last bit so OTR doesn't fire up :D

Thanks John - the most despised Manager in Leicester's history! To be fair he has done well with some very small clubs though he just couldn't handle one of the big boys!!! ;)

I'll line em up, you knock em down.
Maybe that was an issue at Palace on e they made it to the EPL
He couldn't really fail to get promotion with them but once up I think it might have been a bit harder to handle.

Fulham may not have started well but I have faith we will wind up Top 10.
Have many young blokes.
Need a better Keeper & another Central Defender - not sure Parker is up to it anymore, too slow IMHO.

Just wondering if anyone here has had any experience with watching games that have been on the Setanta Sports Plus Channel (the additional online channel) at either the Rosemont or the Grandstand Bar at the Casino.
Are they able to provide the game on a TV?
I just wanted to get some idea before I made some calls.
Hoping to get in and watch the huge derby this weekend! #COYB

Am losing faith in Felix McGrath, fast. :evil:

0 - 3 start, including 2 x Home losses if very concerning.
Seems he 'chops & changes' the team constantly... would like to see a 'settled' team for a few games at least :roll:

Fulham have bid £10m for Rhodes
Blackburn holding out for 12

I don't think strikers is the issue at Fulham and spending £20m on two forwards will do nothing if a) you concede five goals a game, and b) you have no midfield structure to get the ball to the forwards

Geez when are Birmingham goig to get rid of Clarke
He is aweful and sounds aweful too.

Another for the chop soon must be Freeman at Bolton
Another big flop. Just had enough last year to avoid relegation, but might not be so lucky this time.

Stuart Pearce is doing a decent job at Forest. They had the foundations last season but struggled with injuries. I think they will be a bit luckier this time and maybe some of Pearce's bulldog spirit will rub off on enough of the team to get the job done.

Wolves looking pretty good too. I like Kenny Jacket and he was just the manager they needed. Easy win over bastard rovers today.

Have to agree with pretty much all of that.

Forest have made a fantastic start and Britt Assombalonga is setting the Championship alight with 8 goals from 7 matches.
Forest have a tendancy in recent seasons to have long losing streaks which have hurt their chances on gaining auto promotion.
Hopefully this year is different.
