Stottie

Three big games coming up for sure. This season was never going to be easy, but we should have a good idea of how hard its going to be by the end of October.

We did better than Chelsea at creating chances against Citeh. All they managed was a defender's header from a corner (which they missed too). The high defensive line looked really risky, but they were incompetent in turning it into clear chances without the ref's assistance. You could even say it was a successful gamble.

Aye, from what little we saw, he looks like a good 'un. A player that makes football worth watching. It's a real body blow for the team, but is worst of all for the lad himself. We can only hope his recovery goes as well as possible. For someone with a broken leg, he still managed to half sit up at first and wave to the crowd from the stretcher. He must be tough, and maybe that bodes well for his comeback. Anyway, there's nae replacement until Jan at the earliest, so we're just going to have to buckle down and make the best of it. It would have been nice to have another point in the bag from yesterday, but Martin Atkinson ensured that wasn't going to happen.

Bollocks. Kind of robbed but that will be forgotten by next week. Gutted about HBA and worried about Colo, but Sol did grand. Other positives in Tiote (the man!), Jonas, Nolan being taken off,etc. Ultimately though we need points and we didn't get any.

Lescott's a donkey and that's a pen.

Class goal. Credit where its due.

Jonas close! Lightning nearly strikes twice!

Milner fails to outpace Sol! Seen it all before.
