Middlesbrough have signed a good young striker. Hoppe from majorca. They can splash out while we can't

They just receive 30 million this summer from selling Spence and Tavernier. 

We signed 2 players for cash.

We'll do better than Middlesbrough this season. Why?

Because they haven't got the GB-JDT-Remy consortium.

Triumvirate.

I hope Watford sell Sarr - they've been incredibly poor since he went off against Burnley.

Dennis was a big miss tonight for Watford. If sarr goes to they will just be another team in the mix. My worry is could they be a potential destination for BBD 😳

Why would he go to another championship team?

If no top teams come in and Watford offer him first team football , double/triple the wage, near London at a team fully expecting to go back up, I’m not saying it would happen but if I was BBD and I didn’t have blue and white tinted glasses on I would certainly have the conversation if the offer was put on the table. 
Now they are desperate for another goal scorer, bens proven at this level, with 12 months on his contract, I’d be looking at it if I was Watford. 
just saying it makes me abit uneasy , especially if they lose Sarr 😅

[JacknOry]

Both are attracting PL interest and I reckon at least one will go.

[JohnD]

Plenty of Championship teams in need of strikers but who is in the pool to choose from?

Lower leagues, foreign, loans?

Absolutely no chance Brererton ends up at Watford

Another game off midweek for Coventry against Wigan, they definitely need punishment for this its a joke.

Dread to see the state of their pitch as the season progresses if its this bad already.

[Rogerb]

Difficult to catch up if you fall behind at the start of a season due to not playing. Rovers 65/66 comes to mind. At least Coventry can play away games would make sense to swap these home games to an away fixture but I guess that's too simple

It is too simple. They'll have factored in other teams at home the same night. Next Tuesday you have Bolton and Preston already at home  they won't want Wigan too. The plod have certain rules on which teams they want at home on the same day.

Whilst that might be a sound principle it won't apply on Tuesday night. Lancasire Police already have Preston, Bolton and Fleetwood at home, although none are high profile games. Only Bolton are at home in Greater Manchester, to Morecambe, so I can't see them objecting to a game at Wigan as well.

Why? They don't do anything.

They let away fans walk through Rovers fans on their way back to the train station every home match.

Reading getting thumped early on at Rotherham.

Paul Ince doing Paul Ince things.

Hope we turn up at the Madjeski (or whatever it's called now) for once midweek. 

[arbitro]

Paul Ince working his managerial magic again..........they are three down after 17minutes at Rotherham.

He did save them from relegation last season.

The football Swansea play is just suicidal.

Their CBs aren't good enough to play it out from the back in the manner they want to - and even when it does work out for them they don't have the CMs to capitalize on it.

They just pass themselves into trouble any time the opposition puts on a press.

League is a clown show. Back JDT and this could be a good season

Winning 1-0 now, any win is a good win away from home

And they score on the break with a hoof upfield to Obafemi...
