      Would be surprising if all three of us ended up with a 90 point tally.

      Blackburn seem to be the team in form at the moment, so look favourites at the moment to win the league.

      Shrewsbury keep grinding out results (even though they are a boring team to watch) so should be there or there abouts.

      We are up & down at the moment so you would think we are the most likely to drop out.. But, we do have the talent to walk this league, so it’s a difficult one to call for me. Still fancy us for going up. If not as champions then as runners up.

        If it was purposely aimed at Liverpool then it has gone through at least 5 people all of varying management levels.

        I doubt they were all “in on it”

        Most people would never have heard of this Bob Marley song before Egg. So to the average person the connotation on this tshirt refers to one thing.

        Out of them five people surely one of them must have thought, hang on mo…?

            Rivalries apart, this is definitely in poor taste.

              We looked nervous at times and thought we were coming away with just a point as nobody looked like scoring.

              But there’s nothing like a win to boost confidence, particularly against the odds.
              Look at the Shrewsbury and Blackburn message boards – they are devastated.
              We were nervous because of our current string of results, but last night can set us back on course.[/quote]

              You’re right and let’s hope that is the case, starting Sunday. Next three league games look like wins on paper so I’m hoping we fly through the 70s.

                Looks like Southampton have sold their allocation (4,600) for this match so should be a decent crowd on. Maybe they expect a win for Hughes first game..

                  Can’t wait Runcorn and as someone else said that win at Bradford was a welcomed win that gives us a bit of breathing space. We can enjoy this one and hope we stop yet another prem club scoring at our place :pinch:

                    Great win, great lay off from Grigg, cool finish from Jacobs. Other than that the game was full of poor quality footy. We looked nervous at times and thought we were coming away with just a point as nobody looked like scoring.
                    Bradford are a really poor team but a win is a win. Let’s hope we kick on from here?

                      We could be West Ham

                      Or a MUFC fan… They are in serious meltdown today after last night. Mourinho getting plenty of stick, the club is also in a mess, starting at the top apparently???

                      Can’t beat a football fan for being fickle.

                        I’d like to see Walker get a start. He’s impressed me with both his skill and his attitude on the couple of occasions I’ve seen him,but it sounds like he does have fitness issues and maybe that’s why we haven’t seen more of him.

                        Me too Otter. If not fully fit he’d still be a better choice than Perkins, he’s had his day for me.
                        Drop Massey or Jacobs and bring Vaughan in as well. He works his socks off every time.

                          Southampton were terrible at the weekend so I was optimistic about this game. Be tougher now for sure especially as our performances of late have not been up to their normal standards.

                            Watching MoTD and Southampton looked really low on confidence, just hope they don’t sack their manager before we play them.
                            As indifferent as we are at the moment, we stand a chance of beating these men.

                              Fair to say Walton didn’t have his best game today but he’s been great all season.

                              Walton
                              Burn
                              Dunkley
                              Bruce
                              James
                              Byrne
                              Power
                              Morsy
                              Walker
                              Vaughan
                              Grigg

                              Teams seem to have sussed us out so for me a change is needed to maybe freshen things up. A more solid midfield with wingback supplying crosses for front two just may work.

                                Sell Morsy and Powell? Really?
                                Give your head a wobble.

                                I did have to read that twice myself…??

                                  Couldn’t understand why Cook brought Perkins in and moved Power to the right side?

                                  Powell is poor of late and feel we carry him. Nice flicks, some good passes but nothing of any meaningfulness from him. He’s easily wound up too which then ruins his game.

                                  Too many times we have 3 players out wide overlapping each other. Midfield has big holes in it and that’s where we need to strengthen up.

                                  Cook had his worst day at the office for me today. Team selection / formation & Tac tics were poor. Possibly the worst performance I’ve seen this season.
