Nice to hear the dulcet tones of Glenn Murray too, good Cumbrian lad 😀

Knows when to keep his mouth shut.
He has been good actually

Quality of the squad has gone up,but yeah still need a few.

We need to play strong teams now in cup competitions, forget the survival bullshit.

It's time for some silverware.

Long overdue.

I'll be disappointed if we finish below Forest. They don't look anything special this year.

These 2 results will give the team a massive boost, just give us a bloody home draw for a change.

They played for a draw last year. Hopefully they've peaked a bit early.

Palace were atrocious at home last season and same guy is in charge at Forest.

Palace flirted with relegation and Forest could easily do the same.
