Me and the wife are expecting our first child this weekend. Not too much to ask for a win to mark the occasion, surely?

Judging by the presser, Stephens will be on the bench and Aribo could well start LCB.

Yeah he was clearly injured against Ipswich hence why he came off. I think he's a bit different to Downes in the sense that he actively pushed to come here, where as Downes clearly didn't have many options and was just about swayed by RM. Having said that I can't see either player being with us next season.

He's a solid championship player when he's got the ball. When he hasn't he wouldn't make it into my Sunday League side.

We're probably better off trying to defend for our lives like we did at Fulham. If we are too adventurous we will leave space for all their attacking talent and it could be an ugly score line. In hindsight maybe we should've just stuck with Rusk..

If we don't get another win this season (very likely) then i'll be shocked if he's still in charge.

I think it's quite easy actually. Fernandes by some distance.

I agree. The only reason he signed for us was because of Martin.

I've not seen much evidence of him caring about the club, looks to me like he puts in about 50% effort when he's on the pitch.

The fact that Spors at least has a track record is promising. He isn't (wasn't) part of SR, so deserves a chance.

Downes and Armstrong both asking to leave because their mate Martin got the sack. Pathetic.

Yep let's hope Spors has someone else lined up.

And McCarthy

No way can we go into next season playing this formation. Sadly it seems like there is no alternative under Juric.

Manning can barely pass with his right foot, let alone chip it over a keeper.

All he had to do was pass to Dibling and it would've taken the keeper out of the equation.

Badly missing a striker in this game. I'd certainly get Onuachu on at half time.

Still too many players who look for the pass backwards/sideways first. Aribo, Bree and Manning are prime examples.

Burnley really are a shite team to watch

He's clearly fallen out with the manager.

It's being shown on a number of channels worldwide (you've got to ask yourself why) so there will be a few streams available I'd imagine.

Agreed on both fronts. I'm almost certain it won't happen but if there's any way we could convince Fernandes to give us one season in the Championship then that would be huge.

Yes it's essentially a clash between two very good championship sides. As they've seemingly left behind a number of their better players that should swing it in our favour.

I'm not as bothered as some that it looks like he won't be back next season. He scored a lot of goals last season but he also missed the most big chances in the league by some distance. Let's move on.
