Squad back in action today at Forest. Many reports swirling that Felix has been told win or you're out.

Any meat to that? Seems counter-intuitive. We're bottom of the table, going on the road to play the team who, coming into yesterday, was top of the Championship. On paper, odds would say we lose the game anyway. He should have either been sacked already, or given the next home fixture.

I don't even know anymore...COYW

Starting XI vs. Forest:

Kiraly; Bodurov, Hutchinson, Burn, Amorebieta; Hoogland, Parker, Fotheringham, Stafylidis; McCormack, Rodallega.

I have no clue what that is even supposed to be. 6 defenders?

Rodallega and McCormack up top could be fun. No Hyndman though? Booooooo.

2-0 down before 30 minutes. Getting slaughtered again. Methinks we'll have a new manager soon.

The Kit Symons era begins today at home against Blackburn. I am naturally a bit renewed now that we've got a reset chance with 39 of 46 games remaining.

Ruiz trained and had positive comments in social media, but unlikely he's fit enough to play. Liked the squad last week from an attacking perspective but man was the defending porous. Kiraly didn't impress either. Maybe Bettinelli gets his league shot today.

I was right on one front and wrong on the other: Ruiz is in the starting XI:

Fulham XI vs. Blackburn:

Bettinelli; Hoogland, Hutchinson, Burn, Amorebieta; Christensen, Parker, Stafylidis; Ruiz, McCormack; Rodallega

Subs: Kiraly, Bodurov, Kavanagh, Hyndman, Roberts, G. Williams, Dembelé

I would prefer Voser over Hoogland, Bodurov over Hutchinson, and David in the squad, but overall I think it's ok.

Hyndman doesn't need to be an every week starter, and I still think that's a good strike pairing. Also obviously interested to see Ruiz.

We have to win this game.

frick us. Hutch sent off.

Went in fricking studs first and nearly broke the bastard's leg. Had so much promise but Hutch has been a complete dumpster fire in every appearance this season.

He's in a bad spell, right now. That's tough on a young player.

OK, let's try this again.

Squad v Birmingham:

Bettinelli; Hoogland, Bodurov, Burn, Amorebieta; Parker, Christensen, Hyndman ; Ruiz; Rodallega, McCormack.

Subs: Kiraly, Stafylidis, Smith, Roberts, Woodrow, Williams, Kavanagh

At least maybe Fotheringham is out of favor?

So is David apparently.

The problem with that lineup is a lack of width. Amorebieta's a bit better going forward than you'd think, but neither he nor Hoogland are great attacking fullbacks, and we have no other wide players in the lineup.

It's not bad though, considering. Bodurov and Burn is the right combo at CB, interesting to see Hyndman and LVC, and that front 3 is pretty good.

They actually looked halfway decent after Hutch was sent off last week, but the problem is they were down a man. Probably my favorite lineup of the season, though I wouldn't mind seeing David in there somehow maybe for LVC

Bring on Williams, Roberts, and maybe even Smith. Need some width.
