At least Hogan ran around a bit, his little legs giving the impression he is running quickly.
Kodija did not turn up.

I have to agree that we'll never see Hogan come good here. Get what we can for him and look for a better option.

We're the 6th highest scorers.

I make it that we have signed 3 strikers largely on the basis of the division scoring charts in the last 18 months - if we scouted Hogan then surely there was an idea on how he actually plays so I would certainly be asking questions of the person who signed him?  Sure Brentford never spent their time hammering it at his head....

Do wonder if the Bruce masterplan was to have a front four of;

      Snodgrass Grealish Kodjia
                        Hogan

At the start of season I can’t think Davis was anything close to his first team.

For me Hogan has delivered very little thus far, very underwhelming but I think he is owed another proper chance before being wrote off.

Be nice if just occasionally he played up top with another forward.

Why not? We've scored the same number of goals as the team who are second. Will it not get them up either?

There's been an emotional reaction to Saturday's result, but too many statements being made based on emotion.

Again, it comes back to the oft-discussed 4 wins on the bounce.  Absolutely no point in smashing the weaker teams 3 or 4 nil, if we're going to keep failing to score and ge played off the park against the promotion chasers.  We'd obviously be much better off if we'd only beaten Burton and Forest 1-0, but had done the same to Cardiff and Wolves.  We'd be top if we'd beaten both of them.

It probably will if we have the best defence.

It's more important that we beat the other clubs in and around the top 6.

Exactly ..especially considering at this point our best chance of going up looks like the play offs where we will have to beat top 6 sides

I was just being pedantic.  If you have the 6th best scoring record in the league but let far fewer in than other teams there's a strong chance you'd be in the mix for promotion.  I'm not advocating this policy though!

I'd love to help Drummond, I have no idea.
