Snowflake Royal Norwich fan I know says they're a mess and have no chance of promotion.

Not sure I trust his judgement.

His three for promotion includes Coventry. :?

Ugh. Does he have Luton in 4th?

Luton are going down.

No-Beazley-o but what are Bournemouth doing?

They've not spent a single penny and have signed two players

Norwich will be up there I’m sure - whether they can get another auto promotion I do doubt though

Bournemouth - yeah weird one. No way that squad stays up imo. Reckon they may end up panic buying at the end of the window

Or they could be adopting the Norwich approach

Not sure you can read too much into this, Burnley look good but god 11 dustbins would give them a harder game.

I was gonna post the same. Huddersfield look utterly shite. They remind me of us when we have been really really really shite.
I don't think Burnley had to get out of first gear.

Burnley looked good, very solid performance. Huddersfield look really short on quality at both ends.

2 shots on goal, 0 on target. 1 corner.

That’s a seriously miserable set of stats for a home team

They look very short of quality

Burnley decent but they’ve a load of new players in there, really shouldn’t be getting whipped like that against them

Cardiff have retired the number 7 shirt as worn by Peter Whittingham. He is also included in the matchday programme listed as number 7 in the squad albeit in a faded ink. Fully understand retiring the shirt because he was loved by the fans but not sure about the programme listing.

Looks like the same old story Burnley and Norwich go up Fulham and Bournemouth comedown. It’s so exciting.

Wouldn’t agree with the idea if he’d simply been transferred or retired.
Entirely understand in these circumstances

If they leave him in the list beyond this season, however, that seems a bit long
