Missed out on a season ticket for this season I think, much to my chagrin Wow. I'd have thought if there was ever a season when season tickets would be readily availabe it's this one Do Boro restrict the total number of ST holders? Are you on a waiting list? What are your expectations for the season? They’ve got some weird system in place at the moment where you have to apply as part of a group of 6, at least that’s my understanding of it that my dad gave me.

Well Neil Warnock (our manager) has the kung-flu now and he’s in his seventies so there’s a pretty decent chance it’s curtains for him and our season before it’s even began.

Really. I didn't know. Poor old Neil. Get well soon. Even without having to contend with illness, I did wonder if he would be up for the fight having walked away from Cardiff last season.
He may be a Brexit loving gammon with a gift for winding up fans of opposing clubs but, having heard him interviewed a few times, he is also thoughtful, friendly and considered. He's also been a brilliant manager.

I only just noticed Coventry are now in the Championship, they've done well to survive considering what they've been through since losing Premier League status.

Got no clue how all the league is going to stay afloat with no ticket sales, this could be about to turn into the Hunger Games.

Just think about the billions stolen from the game by agents and other parasites.

Forest mid table obscurity and a new manager when Lamouchi realises that the club has no ambition. Harsh. He will be out if Forest are not firmly top six by Xmas. Not even Halloween and Lamouchi gone. Chris Hughton in, always liked him and he knows how to win promotion but Forest are a selling club, anyone who is half decent is snapped up by Premier teams

I would expect Chris Hughton to do a good job. It's a shame he cannot change the squad now. Still Forest seem to have so many players sloshing about that he should be able to get a core group organised.
It's really not ideal coming in with the season underway and with such fixture congestion this season
Hopefully, if there's signs of progress this season, the hierarchy will retain him into next season
He's a thoroughly decent human being and very competent. I do wonder if the game has moved on a bit though now? His tactics at Brighton were very much around being organised and hard to beat. Not a bad strategy in the Championship but you need a bit more than that in the Prem.

The Hughton revolution is underway (looked like a dreadful game though). Great to see CH back on the touchline on the Quest highlights. Such a dignified figure. I hope he does well again.

The club we are twinned with, Olympiakos, have loaned us some dependable battlers though Tiago Silva has gone the other way. There's no standout teams in the EFL this year so results will be unpredictable, all to play for.
