| Is PL showing that leopards can change their spots? 19:57 - Sep 26 with 2302 views | Chrisd |
Appreciate it is early days and yes there will be those that say we haven't played any side of substance yet. However, do we feel there are encouraging signs and room for optimism with PL's management? |  |

I remember the beginning of last season in terms of results, and winning without looking the better team except once or twice... I don't remember when Lambert started chopping and changing personnel though...

....he's played a different starting 11 in all 6 games so far this season.
Just saying. |  |

With our injuries that's not really a surprise? | |

How about not 'just saying' and elaborating on what point you are making? Have the courage of your conviction to outline what it is you are illuminating us with here. | |

Surely it was obvious he was going to change this season and stop chopping and changing every game. Stevie Wonder could see it's what cost us last season. I had no doubt that he would at least make more of an effort to get it right this season, by basically not doing what he did last. | |

It's always peculiar to find someone online who, despite the many many years 'the internet' has existed and has had people posting on it, can never comprehend that someone might say something that isn't meant to be taken 100% seriously. |  |

It was never about the chopping and changing of players, it was players not knowing what they had to do tactically, either the starting 11 or the subs that was the fundamental issue last season. |  | | |

He has got more right than the rest of you in recent season so perhaps you should. | |

Kept a winning team, so far, has been key.
Also, I like the way after we get the first that we go after a 2nd, last season we seemed to hang on nervous to the 1-0’s... that ultimately turned into 1-1. (I don’t have stats to back that up, however, it just feels different this season) |  |

#justsayin is is one of those irritating internet things that really grinds my gears. The other one that really annoys me is when people (usually on Facebook) say "when...". For example., "when you go to the shops and the loo roll is all gone..."
What about it?! When what?! What do you do?! It means nothing! | | | |

Not as bad as those who have only just discovered the word ‘literally’ and use it 4/5 tines per sentence | |

That’s not true though - last season in the 16 games we scored first we won 11. Of the 5 we didn’t (Peterborough A, Sunderland H, Blackpool H, Coventry A and Wycombe A) at all times we were pegged back relatively early
When we fell behind on the other hand... |  |

Just saying. |
In league games:
Made 3 changes in total, Drinan (injury) Judge (injury) out for BR, yesterday Hawkins for Norwood (no surprise on last weeks form)
Same back 5, same midfield 3, same formation for all league games.
But I understand, whatever fits your agenda, just saying. |  |

who is and is not a 'team of substance'.
Sure, Bristol Rovers and Rochdale are currently the bottom two and Wigan in 18th. But apart from Portsmouth (against whom Rochdale drew and Wigan won), the teams they've played are Doncaster, Gillingham, Ipswich, Swindon and Sunderland, most of whom one would expect to be among the stronger sides in the division and between them have so far only dropped 10 points this season. |  |

Sorry yes and wasn’t having a dig - just thought it was worth pointing out as it’s a common misconception when in reality we were actually very good at closing out wins | |
