Ring any bells? Blackburn stuffed us 7-1 Roeder the manager pleading for more time and criticizing the defence for not doing the basics...sound familiar?...a quarter of a century on what has changed?

In my view he was one of our brightest young lads ,I'll be following Reading with interest now.

Ok gang. The morning after the night before. Now the dust has settled. Lets take stock of the situation.

First off. Almost grabbing the defeat out of the jaws of victory, is inexcusable. We've seen this way too many times before. This cannot happen again and Nuno needs to sort his shit out. But for the woodwork and Scarles goal line clearance, we would be looking at 0 points this morning.

Burnley came down with us. They are in the same position, but without the favourites tag. Serial yo-yo act they maybe? But I expect them to finish top 6 at the end of the season. So looking at things objectively we got an away point. Not a loss and still somehow remain unbeaten so far in pre season to date.

We have a very talented squad, but when you look at the outgoings in waiting. The cracks appear and it starts to become thin to say the least. Wan Bissaka, Todibo, Alvarez, Fulkrug, Cornet, Magassa. Whatever your opinion on these guys. They are all good players. They maybe aren't the right fit for us anymore. Thats why they will be leaving before Sept 1st.

On that note. we must get proper Championship hungry replacements in. Proven players, who can scrap and produce quality. Nuno is on thin ice and borrowed time. He is far too cautious and because of our situation, it magnifies the scrutiny on him and his tactics.

As for yesterday. Better to get that performance out of the way, in the first game of the season. I sincerely doubt 2 points will make a difference at the end of 46 games. The board had better sort there shit out and back Nuno. Or Nuno will be history, although maybe that's not such a bad thing.

If Pablo got a knock yesterday, then I can see why JWP came on. Although wouldn't Earthy of been a better option. I'm guessing with Kante and Orford already playing. It was maybe a bridge too far. Having all the youngsters on, so caution was the winner.

Ultimately caution was our undoing. We got away with one. Engles will come in, Soucek will be available soon. Maybe Parrot will come. Or as someone mentioned why not Flemming? He's done it in the Premier League for Burnley. He did it yesterday and looks powerful.

All I know is. If we don't get a resounding victory at the BOM on Saturday. With 55,000 strong fans against Charlton. Things are going to get very ugly, very ugly indeed.

Nuno, the clock is ticking. You better be sorting this shit out!!!!

£25million reportedly which is bloody good business if you ask me...when we first got him he was good but for some reason or another and specially after the AFCON his attitude just stank and clearly he wanted to go...so with those wages off the bill and a very nice profit to boot and as long as Nuno does not try the Scarles can play as RB experiment again i think we have had another great deal of an outgoing transfer and money in that can help fund a decent player to challenge KWP for a starting berth.

The Gk....Yes he has been in this division before but i am unsure of Herman being able to deal with the physical side of the challenges that will come his way this season...not the biggest GK then again Shay Given showed that need not be a problem...but he just does not for me command the area and tendency to punch rather than catch is a worry...Areola whilst still here is ok but not really much better so do we have anyone scouting for a GK or do you think we are ok with what we have?

Anyone see the match tonight ? ,good old fashioned end to end stuff ,should act as a warning to anyone who thinks this LG will be a piece of piss .

Brentford interested for £40million...personally i'd snatch their hands off because defensively he is a nightmare and it would not surprise me one bit if he gets pushed further up the pitch long term whoever he plays for...so good profit made? or are we crazy to even think of letting him go?

Saw Nuno's interview yesterday and an insinuation that some academy players will be being selected. Says to me that the cup is not a priority then?

Just watched a video explaining the new rules for the championship and have to say i liked the idea of a couple of them and just hope refs are consistent in enforcing them......first one i liked is player being subbed their will be a 10 second countdown to leave the pitch if they dont then the sub coming on will not be allowed to for a full minute and only then if the ball has gone out of play and the second one ohh yesss shame its not in the prem..Can you hear me Arteta....Gk's who go down "injured" get treatment because they cannot leave the field of play the manager has to take off one outfield player for a full minute this hopefully stops the "professionalism" or as fans see it FUCKING CHEATING BASTARDS from stopping the flow of the game........
