If you saw the incident you will see why Østigård reacted like that.

We were linked with Østigård (the player with the disallowed goal) in the summer. Shame we didn't sign him, pretty sure he would be fit and a better option than Branthwaite/Ayala.

Is there a rumour about Hughes?

These schoolboy cb's are not making life easy for Kaminski. Good save there, but no one to follow up and clear the ball.

I think that Pike's squad number is 40.

No Lenihan today and Bell is back.

Seems like Stergiakis is having a good game?

Yes I know.

Surely these two have to be furthest down the line in the midfield queue? When everyone is fit, will they even make the bench? Only reason I can see that Bennett possibly would be on the bench is that he can play in several positions.

Actually at some point he looked better than Martin Ødegaard. Don't know what happend to him, I think he made some wrong choices career wise.

I don't know much about this young City lad, but it seems like he is highly rated. Surely not coming in to sit on the bench? 3 at the back?

I think we should loan him out now in january. IF he is as good as someone on this board says, he should be able to play himself into a League 1 or 2 side, maybe that experience could "wake him up". If he can't play regulary on that level I think we should let him go in the summer.

Also yes.

So Mowbray says that we haven't bid for Pickering ? "He said: “I don’t know about that to be honest. “We’ve got two left backs, I’m not sure where that came from. “We’ve got Barry Douglas, we’ve got Amari’i Bell, it would seem mad to me to sign a left back when you haven’t got any centre halves.” Very strange comment when it's been confirmed from Crewe that we had made a bid.

No idea, but short of rumours these days so I thought i'd just post it.

Is Dan Pike free of his injury ? Play him at rightback if so.

https://tv6.news/believes-kjetil-knutsen-ought-to-have-been-nominated-for-coach-of-the-12-months-on-the-planet/ He took over Bodø/Glimt when they were in the first division and won promotion. "Everyone" thought that they would go straight down again, but they won silver that year. And after that season they sold two of their biggest stars, but he managed to replace them both. One of those players that he brought into the team have already be sold again (Hauge to Milan). This season they won the league and broke almost every record there was to break. He is a nice and honest guy, plays 4-3-3 and likes to give young players a chance.

I mentioned this player in the summer, looks like he is set to sign for Watford. Player of the year in our league, 28 games, 19 goals and 24 assists. Crazy numbers! It will be interesting to see how he will adapt to English football. https://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sport/18974682.watford-make-move-free-agent-philip-zinckernagel/

I agree, if he is our biggest asset of the young ones, I feel that at the age of 21 he should be playing regulary. Maybe a loan in january.

Shots that go through the defenders feets almost always finds the net.
