Oliveira from Norwich could be joining us. Good striker.

The new manager will see Lambert's report to the Board. No reason not to trust it, at least in relation to those players Lambert was prepared to ship out. My main concern is that younger players like Bright and Ronan don't lose out.

There is more chance of Dicko and Bod scoring than Lambert being sacked. I like the guy, I just about get the accent, and I think he talks sense. He seems to have the dressing room with him. Change is not always a good thing. If any club should know that, it's ours.

Our midfield is basically crap, but also maddingly inconsistent. Evans, Price, Saiss - one game good two games bad. At least Saville and Edwards are consistent. All credit to Dave yesterday - his persistence set up the winner.

Tried and Tested ? More like Tried and Failed. I'd love to see Bright given another run - great talent in the making.

We dont really know who Thelwell bought in or not. But it's no big surprise that he's pro the local lads. Lambert appears to be the same. Maybe there's been some dressing room tension with the foreign signings. It would be surprising if there hadn't been, given how many came in so quickly. It...

Surely we have enough faith in our midfielders not to have to go 4-5-1 against Wigan at home ? Let Evans and Ronan do the heavy lifting, Bright and Costa provide the skill, and Bod and Dicko the missed chances !

I'll go for this : Ikeme, Iorfa, Batth, Stearman, Doherty, Evans, Ronan, Costa, Bright, Dicko, Bod. If we can't be positive in our team selection for a home game against Wigan, we might as well give up.

I thought Newcastle were rubbish. We were the better team. No real complaints from me about the performance. Like Siggy, I was gutted when Bright went off. Every touch he had was a good one. The kid is a real talent. Unfortunately, I can't see Dicko scoring from inside the box at the moment...

"Players who are comfortable on the ball.......look to pick a pass " Do we have anyone of that description ?? !!

It might be wise to leave Saiss out of this one. Or on the bench.

Chicken George does not refer to chicken lega.

I apologise for saying that we could make the top six. If we can't try to play attacking football on the ground against mighty Burton, what hope is there ? No excuses about fatigue - we have a big squad for just that reason.

I would like to have seen Ronan and Bright start in place of Saville and Edwards.

Or Elokobi play Little Red Riding Hood.

On the face of it Bod has been unlucky. But top strikers always seem to find a way to score.

I'll be surprised if Ronan is dropped after his display against Barnsley. It will be interesting to see if Price keeps his place ahead of Evans.

We can afford to lose the odd game, but if at any point we go loss followed by draw, it's all over. Minimum 4 points required from every 2 games.

I like Lambert's squad rotation policy. He seems to have a core of 18 players and he tries to keep them playing regularly, which is important for harmony as well as performance.

He has to go in the summer unfortunately. Almost inevitable that we'll get an offer too good to refuse. Both for the club and Costa's own career development. Trudging around the Championship no good for Costa or his value. If he stays fit, I reckon we'll make $10million on him - a nice war...
