villalad21 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I'm concerned mainly for our lack of depth in the squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Great to get a win in a scrappy game away from home. Total dog of a performance though, just like watching last season. Unsustainable. Hopefully new signings will see us play some good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except - once we got going last season ( ie Game 8..) we DID sustain it. We averaged almost 2 points per game. Enjoyed last night, the Juggernaut is up and running. We aren’t going to win any beauty contests, but frankly, I couldn’t care less ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted August 7, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 7, 2018 Woohooo. We are second in the table. This must be our lowest point from this point in. And everyone just pray that Leeds don't change their name to Aardvark United. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stockport_Villain Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 With the new additions to the squad we are going up automatically this year. Get your bets on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave J Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 On 06/08/2018 at 09:27, One For The Road said: Last season we had Snodgrass creating chances and scoring the odd goal as well as Adomah on a ridiculously good run for the 1st half of the season. Add to that the solid defence that allowed the likes of Hourihane, Bikir and even Jedinak to push foward a little more to support the attack and you can see how we scored so many goals. Then throw in Grabban and it all makes sense why finished so strongly. We have none of the above this season (apart from Albert who was dreadful at the back end of the season) so will find goals harder to come by. We are desperate for a striker who is proven at this level and all the signs are that we are struggling to find one with our pretty non existent budget. Kodjia may be one of the greediest players in the league, but he can score goals. We will be heavily reliant on him this year. Top 6 this season will be a massive ask. I agree - and with another no show from Kod - I think a season long swap with Newcastle for Gayle would have been a good bit of business - surely if Rafa see something in Rondon, he would also see something in Kod ? One that got away for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmark86 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Having a look at WBA vs Forest and I can only say that I think sometimes we're incredibly hard on our team... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdulaziz1 Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Middlesbrough are a big threat I think. They came back at Millwall from 2-0 and won against Sheff U. There form was great at the end of last season too. I just hope we could just build up confidence and continue winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure really. There is a round of games on 21/2 August where the clubs who played tonight don’t have matches so it gets evened out then.

I believe the Police wanted the Forest game moved as it clashes with the test match at Trent Bridge in a couple of weeks. The 'Boro game was because of TV games coming up I think. Friday nighter against W.Brom on the 24th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
