    Go on Vaughan. Sign of a good experienced pro to come up with goods after his shocking penalty miss

    Idiots. I read that they had to evacuate Pride Park last night for a while after Cardiff fans set a load off before the game started

    Most games so far have been tough - it's something some need to get over.

    We aren't going to steamroll many, but that does not matter at all.

    For me, it's time for Bowyer to start getting credit as results become more consistent, but I agree, there is nothing easy about this season.

    I'm sticking with my preseason prediction of 7th until we start pulling further ahead.

    Surprised people still have this weird belief that being relegated makes you instant dominant favorites for promotion.

    Considering relegation means having to make big squad changes and often management changes its extremely hard to bounce back.

    In all fairness, we aren't even a standard relegated side.

    We were absolutely nowhere near the next worst team in League Two, and couldn't play a standard formation with the dross we signed.

    We aren't lucky enough to have been in Scunthorpe's position pre-season, we were in a far worse state than them.

    Hanson and Doyle or Vaughan and Donaldson?

    Forgive me, but I'll take what we've got now all day long.

    Radio Leeds reporting Eoin Doyle CANNOT be recalled from his loan in January.

    So, as far as I'm concerned, the thread in 'Where Are They Now' is the ONLY relevant thread for this former player.

    I think the fluidity going forward will come as the team gel but right now grity 0-1 wins away from home is great.

    I'm still concerned about central midfield although Cooke improved that area again when he came on but overall we're looking more balanced in the 442.

    Agree, Incredibly plenty on social media supporting the deployment of smoke bombs.

    I wonder how supportive they would be towards the club when asked to donate money towards any fine.

    You won't see them for dust.

    These smoke bombs are let off up and down the land over the last couple of years, Oldham did it at our place only a couple of weeks ago.

    The fines do absolutely nothing to help, what's needed is stronger policing in terms of entry to the grounds.

    We should put some form of complaint in against our disallowed goal. It’s madness. He dived backwards to try get the ball judged it wrong. Simples. Nothing in the slightest wrong with it, i have watched it back over again and still see nothing.
    Other points are -
    -Wtf was that penalty haha.
    -Not even nearly a Vaughn goal. He kicked the player.
    - Walsalls striker, Gaffney I think, is the worse player I have ever seen. Every cross was ballooned, heavy touch and basically crap. Makes Patrick look good.

    Ah, OK. Not read the thread. Football's really dull. You're right though, the Hats Off thread was a highlight on C&B.

    My little boy likes it when they let one off. Granted that at 11 he's probably the same age mentally as the lads that set them off though.
