Nah, but how many games can we afford to go without a win? 5? 10?

I'd say no manager is ever more than 10 away from the sack.

At the start of the season I’d say a manager with Wellens’ history at the club has 2 months grace. If we start October without a league win then he genuinely might be in a bit of trouble.

If we are in that position I won't be blaming Richie . I'll be blaming the board for not backing Richie properly .We've not been able to compete with other clubs in the transfer market this Summer .

Wellens does drive me insane with some of his strange choices, which I think in a way are why he is at this level but then when you consider what he is working with, he is performing miracles the last 12 months, I would say looking back the title winning squad is a bit of an anomaly players like Vigs, Smyth, Miz,

Bigger left field one would be if Evans continues as he is, Wellens would gets a chance at a promotion favourite and the opportunity to make Evans look like an idiot

The margins in winning football matches is small, you need a bit of luck on the day, or a special player such as quoted, that is bit above the rest to make the difference. In truth our squad is much of a muchness that works hard, was never going to be easy to replace El Miz. Not sure we now have that special player. Hopes were there that Agyei or Galbraith would step up this season, we will see. Early as it is, wouldn't be surprised to see Obiero be the next star.

There is a wealth of talent (and equally energy) in Galbraith, Obeiro and Donnelly, backed up by ONeill.


Despite losing El Miz, our midfield is now stronger overall.

And will continue to improve, given their ages.

It’s a really exciting midfield with loads of potential.

The big problem with the club seems to be talent identification. ie it was known Miz, Brynn and so forth were going, they should have been looking six months before for a replacement, so many clubs now are getting the replacement for the player in before they leave, instead two weeks before the season Hemmings came in, Miz still hasn't been replaced.
