    Very recent thing though. Before 2020 we always used to lose to Watford. A 0-6 reverse at the Den in about 2011 being a particular lowlight.

    think the game tomorrow might be a low quality affair. Watford aren’t in great nick and were quite light on quality, what with injuries, suspensions and lack of signings in problem areas.

    0-0 for me

    More Championship football for us USA viewers this season. Last year, ESPN held the rights and showed 1 match per weekend on their pay-extra ESPN+ service.

    The rights have gone elsewhere. 9 of the opening 12 matches are available via Paramount Plus, with a few also on regular cable TV (CBS Sports Network.) My football viewer’s guide shows 7 of 12 matches available the weekend following.

    AND…two League One matches available this weekend.

    After going through most of pre-season relatively unscathed we've now got 5/6 out injured (including our best player in Bae Jun-ho) and we still need to sign another five according to our Director of Football. This has a comfortable away win written all over it :)

    Fingers crossed we do, he was good last season so with his mate O'Hare too we should be a threat.

    Almost spot on with this - McCallum injured so Burrows at left back with Brooks on the right of the three behind Moore.

    Welcome back to another football season, Championship people - just a quick hijack of your match day thread to throw out a reminder that GOS XXI is live on the forum - it's the game that just won't disappear and the competition every (in)sane person wants to win :D

    Solid start from us, looked really comfortable and could have had more. With some good additions still to come it's good to be straight back into positive points!

    Completely forgot Derby had come back up or I’d have put them in my predicted bottom 3 instead of Blackburn. Squad and manager both look very questionable at this level

    Its going to be a very long season for us, Lowe still insisting on playing the same formation and negative tactics, nothing will change until he goes, i cant see him being here much longer

    I’m surprised he’s still there.

    you made the pigs look good and that’s quite an achievement…..

    Please sack Ryan Lowe. The worst manager in our entire history. I'd happily have Graham Westley back.

    I think it might be a long season for you if you're going to be affected by every Sheff Utd win

    I really don't know why Leeds persist with that hologram in goal.

    Very impressive first half display by us against Norwich. Certainly not over yet in this game; but if we can play like this for most of the season we should do ok.
