More of the same please Steve, attacking teams showing scant respect for their 'name' / budgets. Supporters will always be on your side, if even after losing we can walk away and say we had a right good go.

Oh and ditch Eric Black, get a retired actor in, maybe then we can profit from theatrics rather than bemoaning them against us, cos lets face it, its not gonna change is it? - might as well get on the bandwagon of conning the referee!

The fight goes on. It is a marathon not a sprint.

Wake up & smell the Coffee guys, the manager is inept, both recruitment wise AND tactically. When he falls out with players, he moves them out, regardless of ability. I've said before that with SE in charge, we'll get LESS points than Blackpool last season.

For me, it was another game where the team has again improved on its previous outing. Each game since MK, we have steadily improved as the team gets to know each others style of play.

Agree.  MK was very low though, Preston was clean sheet but 'orrible to watch... we couldn't get worse or we were screewd.  QPR was a very big improvement going forward. 

There were runs last year when we looked awful, especially away from home, but I have to say I reckon Evans does learn, (Roos aside, and whats his face, the last dodgy keeper that's now gone).  We get small gates, have a budget that reflects that, so unless Bournemouths owner wants to come north to play with us for a bit, then I will stick my neck out here and say that I am happy for Steven Evans to be our manager. It's a shame that he is forced to have to learn, it'd be better if he could wave a cheque book (cheque book ! how old fashioned is that), get top drawer / tried and trusted stars in from the off, like Austin, Tavernier...etc. Not going to happen.  Perhaps Eddie Howe would be interested ? Don't care really ........ we have Evans and that's that, I'm not going to call for his sack. I will shout at him when I'm narked in the heat of the moment though....that's fair enough int it?

Tend towards archive and hezook' , as might be obvious.

We simply can't buy those players and we can't get a top ( whatever this means) manager. Evans has more than demonstrated several things that we have only seen in small flashes ( Ronnie is the one exception ).

There simply hasn't been a period as successful or sustained as this. Neither have we ever spent more money. But it's relative to those around us.

Evans -and you're going to love this-might well be the best pound for pound manager we have ever had. I'm thankful we have him. Are we sure we could do better and would you gamble knowing what he has achieved every season despite the doubts and criticism.

If fans could name an acceptable target each year since his arrival then he has met every one of them. 4 games into this year's targets and the criticism is surely premature.

OMFGG guys, you actually LIKE this durge we're paying to watch? TBH the club should have paid us to watch the PNE game!!
To answer ian's point...........WIDTH! Get the ball to the flanks, actually play Ledesma on the right & Newell on the left, give Bowery a few games to get on the end of said crosses, with Derbyshire feeding off the scraps, with JCH as back up.............oh before I forget.....LEARN HOW TO DEFEND & GET COLLIN BACK IN GOAL!!!!

How many more "unlucky" defeats will it take to end the love in with the fat controller??????
