Knob End Match Fred 12:41 - Aug 6 with 49017 views | Beckenhamhoop | Getting in very early on this one. I only started one match thread last season and we won 4-0 so here’s hoping my luck continues especially as it’s such a huge fixture. Not just because it’s the first game of the season or because it’s the first game for JS, not just because the pressure is on us to beat a team, at home, that many have tipped to be relegated but because this team needs to win for its fragile confidence. To get its supporters to forget about gardening leave and divided opinions. My anxiety levels are way higher than normal for this game and with the injuries we’ve accumulated so early in the season I don’t think they’re going to drop, especially if Dunne and Cook are unavailable. You wait for months for the season to start and this is what you get; a knot in the pit of your stomach. I’m going for a rollercoaster 3-2 win. Chair with the first. C’mon you soooopahhooooopsah. |  | | |  |

Knob End Match Fred on 15:12 - Aug 9 with 2277 views | Match82 | Considering where my expectations were, been pleased with some of the touches and looking to get involved from Celar and Madsen so far. If those two turn into 80% of the players we bought them to be, we'll be fine going forward this year |  | |  |

Bit concerning how vulnerable we look defensively when PNE have the ball but I guess if the plan is for us to have the ball 90% of the time then it's less of an issue! |  | |  |

Chairs ball to poku? Had a free chance under no pressure albeit a difficult one inside the 6 yard box |  | |  |

Agreed - it does indeed look, like the plan is to actually go forward |  | |  |

Ah ha, so our xG of 0.5 now means that in 50% of games where the chances had occurred like those in this game we'd have scored? I'm not certain that QPR matches are a good way to train statistical models. |  |
