Stating the obvious but there are a lot of good teams in this division...

[Sleeping Giants]

Brighton, Hull, Derby, Middlesborough, Burnley, Ipswich all look our equals or better.....just saying..

[vanhoop]

Only hull,think the teams you mention will drop away.guaranteed with derby

[West Acton]

Agree Van think there are loads of average sides of about the same level which makes it look super competitive

Not one side we have played this season or side I have seen on the TV have impressed me and I would include us in that

You must have watched a lot of their games to come to that opinion. I don't mean highlights, but the full 90 minutes. Any team can be made to look good in a two minute compilation.

The only team I'm qualified to comment on is QPR then!
And we aren't very good, & I look at the players we have & I ask. Why aren't we very good ? Hopefully it comes together with time, but my fear is we look back at the end of the season & wonder what a proper manager could have done with those players.

I'm starting to really lose my patience with ramsey,, if he doesn't go for the throat tonight I won't be to happy,, let's play good football for once get some lovely moves going.. If we lose atleast we can say we played good football, I just can't stand this football under ramsey

well said H I think more fans are coming around to that way of thinking about the DROSS being served up , yes a result would be nice but lets see good players playing like good players

Bottom 8 in the Prem is at a very similar, if not the same level to the top 8 in the Champ.

If we were all in the Prem, we would be looking to beat all the teams mentioned. Nothing different here.

[Brian Wilson]

Don't agree with that. You get punished a lot more regularly for mistakes even with the bottom 8 in the prem vs top championship.

I saw Forest won again, yesterday, Interesting, because some of their fans said that they would play better without the regular longball up to Antonio. it was Blackstock who scored for them, by the way.

More on topic; Brighton look strong this year.

Nah. Sure about that?

[Garyd73]

Some really poor keepers as well, just look at our games against Wolves, Rotherham and Forest. Last night the Boro keeper did exactly the same as Green on Saturday except he let the guy score, also another couple of howlers in some of the other games.

[Shania]

Think Smithies will get debut tonight. Hopefully, he will handle the pressure...

[Ramsey is god]

I'm starting to really lose my patience with ramsey,, if he doesn't go for the throat tonight I won't be to happy,, let's play good football for once get some lovely moves going.. If we lose atleast we can say we played good football, I just can't stand this football under ramsey

More of a question than my point my view, but do we actually have the players to play this great attractive football everyone wants?
