We improved when Dykes came on. Largely because Dozzell came off, Roberts moved back and right, and we had a striker. However poor.

Where the Hits anyone heard from him He's currently on sabbatical following our depressing early season form. Ironically we picked up 3 wins out 4 since he took a break.

Take that. Stoke have been flying lately, a point is a good result. And a clean sheet. 8 points from last 6 games. Wouldn't call that flying. But we're top six. It's incredible to think of the panic on here pre Watford game.... this is still a bargain basement team with a rookie manager but for me we've progressed massively as a club from last year.

Post-match interviews
00:00 Neither team was in control of the game but I’m pleased with the clean sheet 01:28 Bringing Dykes on? 02:33 Disappointed for Andre Dozzell but had to make a call because I was bored at half-time 04:06 The players are starting to understand the ideas and players are getting fit 05:35 Too soon for Luke Amos? 06:36 Stoke being denied a penalty? 07:53 We were too gung ho at the end, but fortune favours the brave 09:25 We brought in some good players this summer 10:41 Tyler Roberts’ performance and the flexible front three? 11:38 ‘No reason’ why Willock and Chair shouldn’t get 15 goals and 15 assists each
0:00 I thought we were better in the first half and there wasn’t much in it 01:19 It was a clear penalty, I told the ref to let me know if he’s made a mistake when he’s watched it back 02:10 Do you think it was a penalty? (To reporter) 02:56 He gives a penalty with VAR 03:38 Bursik made some good saves, they were better second half 04:07 Are there areas of the pitch where refs don’t have the courage to give fouls? 05:18 We will use the international break to work on a few things 06:00 You can’t just play well for 45 minutes, there’s a lot to do

Think people getting a bit carried away
We are stronger in defence and midfield
We were top 4 to top 6 most of last season
Lets take one game at a time and see how we go

The misunderstanding then snowballed from there

Being in this position six weeks in with a rookie manager and bargain basement squad is pretty decent. Remember the panic on here before the Watford game? Remember fans deploring Warbs departure? Listen, we'll probably end up mid table but I reckon the club feels more coherent and more up to speed than it has for a long time.

Remember this is me saying this, I've got form for pointing out how utterly stone age we've been. If I think we're dross I say so.

Scrappy, shit game lacking any genuine quality.
On shots / chances alone we should have at least had one but neither team was much cop.
Stoke are a shitty awkward side to play against.
4 points from 6 is decent. Really need to sort out home form going forward.

I’m with you on most points Hal but don’t agree mid table would be acceptable for me. MB needs to use this 2 week break to toughen up and find our best defensive/MF and attacking options without feeling obliged to play anybody due to rep or because they are on loan. I don’t want to hear him keep saying he’s only been here for 3 months then predicting we will get get 60 points with 8 games left to play, talk is cheap.

And a rare positive post by Hal to boot! Things must be looking up!
