4-3 win in Istanbul against Galatasary. Nice.

I was basing it on the recent game against us, when he was noticeably worse than our centre backs in both respects.

It's certainly a strong rumour, but very hard to understand. We're getting rid of Figuereido because we need centre backs comfortable on the ball and good passers, which Bradley isn't. I think Rosenior will get a big say on who we sign and he knows a lot more than me so who knows. I still think...

Seems sensible, he looked like a red card waiting to happen even in a low-key game against us.

Where was Lansbury?

Really? For the last two months we've had zero strikers on the pitch.

To be fair, it was a big improvement from our recent form. Wigan were dreadful though, long balls and little else.

Yes, and fans coming back after the car crash that was the previous ownership. Crowds up by more than 5,000 this season.

Bowler is an excellent Championship player, but he's not PL standard. I guess Forest are parking him in Greece until they're back down here next season.

Or being a bit more positive, Óscar Estupiñán, 7 goals in opening 6 games. That'll do.

Pearson has moaned about refs his whole career, and let's not believe his description of what that letter said unless the club want to publish it.

Have Blackburn been expelled from the league? That was quick.

Fouls like that when a foot is planted often don't take the leg away, that's why they can cause serious injuries sometimes. And Tetteh took two more steps before that same foot gave way beneath him. You can watch it on the highlights, it's really not difficult. Get a grown-up to show you how.

I didn't, I just copied one of the press photos from the game. Here's another one for you:

Less than a second after getting the defenders studs down the back of his ankle. He takes two steps the second of which is onto the foot that has been raked at which point he goes down. Unless you think that an attacker who'd got himself into a shooting position on the edge of the 6 yard box...

Genuinely have no idea about this. It will take a few games to settle all the new players, but we have a tough start so could really do to win the first two. At least all the injuries make it easier to guess the team, or 10 of them anyway.

We seem to be doing ours one at a time. So far Huddlestone and Eaves released.

Third kit

I'd take a wild guess, and say because it wasn't a penalty. Your forward barges the defender, knocks him over, and is then brought down by the falling defender. Where's the foul?

He had excellent stats in League 1, but we played Lincoln three times and each time we had a couple of better midfield players
