Somebody is going to get pasted this season
Is tonight another Cardiff?

Hopefully there is a rocket up the arse of some of these potential premier league players to put these to the sword - and push on into Saturday against another bum team, with another big win

We've seen flashes - i just hope we can start destroying sides

Their fans seem to think that they’ll come and try to dominate us. I think 4 or 5 is in the offing tonight if they play those tactics. It won’t be the norm because most teams will sit in.

Maybe be grateful for a win, however it comes. The only target is 3 points. No doubt there will be a convincing win at some point in the season. However the manager and players never get any credit (in the bank) from the moaners. Cardiff for example.

I like your optimism.

Having watched all our games and seen a few others in the championship, I have not seen a team (yet) that I think is going to smash teams including ourselves.

The team and the Manager have settled into a pattern play that would suggest we are going to very pragmatic both home and away, with the opposition setting up in a similar fashion.

I am expecting a lot of close,low scoring games.

Thought you meant we were due a stuffing !

Welcome to the entitlement thread.

Welcome to the entitlement thread.

God knows how it's become known as "entitlement" on here to think that we're the best team and should get good results.

The Cardiff score did not truly reflect the match. For around 25 minutes I thought they were on top and should have led by at least one. Our first goal was the changing point and to concede such a clanger really changed the balance of play. However once we sold three of our top players any so-called "stuffings" went out of the window. Pragmatism is very much the order of the day nowadays.

I don’t think Parker sides do ‘stuffings’ in the general scheme of things, but any win will suffice.

Someone can't wait for Sunday!

We’re gonna roast em!

Don't get on the gravy train Doug.

They're not rubbish and won't roll over. They gave Luton a good going over and they're no mugs. (Their manager is **** though!)

I probably wouldn't pin much on what the average football fan thinks.

Hope we do stuff em, however 1-0 will suffice for me.

And Cardiff have been abysmal. Just 1 point after 7 games and a goal difference of minus 15 is almost unprecedented in Championship history. The last team to register a goal difference of -15 at this stage was Birmingham in 1988/89.

More likely to stuff Preston at the weekend. they are not that good but under estimate Plymouth at our peril as Luton found out they are no mugs and are dangerous on the break. 1-0 win will do for me.

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

Bar the opening day against Luton before the fire sale we haven’t had a 90 minute performance yet

Preston it is then

We don't play to stuff anyone. We play, not to get stuffed.

Let's stuff PNE on Saturday.

Them winning 3-0 last night could really work in our favour

Preston seemed to play a high line last night as Watford had a couple of players clean through on goal.

That could bring us some opportunities, but I’m not sure who we have that I’d back, at present, in a one on one situation.

Disappointed this thread wasn't stuffing related.

Was interested to see the debate between Aunt Bessie and Paxo.

I don't know what anyone could have seen from us going forward that would suggest we're going to stuff anyone any time soon, let alone imminently.
