Hilly? No mention of yesterdays game? You ok.
Hi Hairy I am OK just a bit down at the moment, it’s the first time I have felt like this in 48 years of being a Blue nose. It’s been to many false dawns and just hoping this is going to be different, I think it’s going to take time and I am prepared for that. The most frustrating thing is the new signings apart from Richarlison and the odd five minutes of Bernard we are as we were.

Defensively we are still wanting big time. Holgate against the Hammers was walk about, then we played well at the Arse only for the forward line to fire blanks. All I can say is

I'm taking the gradual introduction of the new players as a positive, dropping them all in too quick can backfire and make confidence dip when they dont gel. Gomez should firm the midfield up, Mina should make us defend set pieces better and maybe score from the odd one too, and Bernard needs to find the pace of the English game, but is showing really promising signs, Richarlison has started well as has Digne, This season and probably next are one to be patient with. At least I have wanted to go to games again now, back on the season ticket waiting list, i would go to games last year when offered a free ticket under the gravy swilling money sponge. We are going in the right direction.
My son in law was a bit fed up last night with his beloved team getting beat by Barcelona, I said ah you got beat by the best club side in possibly the world ,in the best cup in the world, well we get dumped out of the micky mouse cup by a s
