Two home matches that were there for the taking and yet one point.

Leicester should have been beaten in the first half but we have no goalscorer. We are no different than we were two years ago.

I am afraid it's going to be another long, difficult season.

Think the board should start looking at new options for a manager. I don't rate Hughes, he doesn't play a good style of football, doesn't know his best 11. I can't see improving anytime soon and picking up more points. We don't want to get tout the position we found ourselves in last seasons.

Agree with both points. How long will the board wait to change things up? I say around the 10 game mark if we are at or near the bottom, bye bye markie mark.

Really! 3 games in and you are calling for the head of the guy who kept us up!

I know it's harsh Cyprus, but we stayed up last season and the reality of it is that we had an easy run of games that kept us in the league. Hughes'so record thus far has been poor and won't improve anytime soon. I'm not denying he did a bad job last season. The change in personnel did help the team and the morale.

My problem with MH is that he's had all summer to learn about the squad find our strengths and weaknesses and improve on them. Judging by the first 3 games, I can't see this has happened. It looks like he doesn't know his best 11, he doesn't know what system is best to use. He's going to keep tinkering until he gets a good result. However, I have no reason to believe that we're better off now than we were 6 months ago with MP'so job was under some real pressure.

Maybe we do have a poor squad but we can't change that, I know our squad lacks any real quality or match winners. Watching the goals we concede we are very unlucky, you can probably pin more than 50% of the goals we conceded in the past season down to individual errors.

Panic buying Saintjay, 2 players out on loan and 1 not even on the bench that cost us collectively over 50 million pounds. Bit of a cock up all round in my opinion, should have pushed for Eddie Howe, his game plan and ability to get an on paper inferior squad playing attacking football is pretty plain to see. We missed the boat there.
