Bona-fide – A Leo Love-in

As Leo Bonatini becomes the first player to reach double figures in the Championship and bags two Player of the Month awards in the process, I chart his rise to prominence at the club and what makes him so special. It all started beautifully. While the victory over MIddlesbrough may not have been our most …

Talking Tactics – Nuno’s Noggin

Plenty has changed since last season. From new players, backroom staff to off-field optimism and of course Nuno Espírito Santo. Along with Nuno came 'Nu' ideas for the club on the pitch too.

And so it arrived. The dreaded month of November. They told us all about it. No wins since 2013. I remember the worst of it. The days of Sagbo and Graham. Our over-reliance on Nouha Dicko was laid bare (just think about that sentence in the context of today). His injury was covered by a …

Nuno and Diwali

It was Diwali/Bandi Chhor Divas this week. Two important festivals to Sikhs and Hindus. This called for a trip to my local Sikh Gurdwara. Having left the hall to have some food, I saw something i certainly didn't expect to. I saw Nuno. I even tapped my brother on the shoulder to confirm. Now Nuno …
