Dean Smith - Confirmed

[Dogtanian]

I do think Norwich will be relegated, to be honest.

I dont. I wouldnt be surprised if both Sheff United and Norwich survive - for one season at the very least.

Quite happy to be wrong, would be nice to see a club spend so little and survive.  Unfortunately, only two newly promoted clubs in 15 years have spent very little and survived their first season in the Premier League.

That really doesn't mean it can't become only 3 from 16. Norwich look settled and competitive and so far their goalscorer has really come through. They look much better than us right now.

I never said it couldn't and I hope it does.

I think you can say the same about Sheffield United - and lets not forget both teams finished above us last season and i think we only gained one point from the twelve available against them.

Norwich and Sheffield United might survive, but we've all seen it before with teams like Blackpool and Hull that a good start by a promoted team doesn't mean a good finish.

It's a long, hard season.

[Mossie Hennebry]

He certainly has a tough job on his hands, but I sincerely hope that he is given the time to do it. Hopefully there are three teams worse than us and he gets time next pre-season to improve things again. We fell a long way down and it will take time to acclimatise to this league.

[Luke8]

I actually think there is a reasonable chance that all three promoted sides could stay up.

I think you could make a group of the three promoted teams and probably at least four or five other teams where there isn’t a huge amount of different in quality in either the playing squad or manager.

[PaulWinch again]

I think he needs to be a bit more savvy with his substitutions and find another way to get us playing other than his tried and trusted 4-3-3 but I'm happy with him. I personally hope he's here for the long haul.

Exactly the same as I feel, Clampy.

I’d agree those are the two key areas to address.

Agreed. They will have a few spectacular wins but mostly lose their games as they go along. I expect them to be settled in bottom 3 by Xmas.

I like Smith too and want him here for the long term but surely substitutions and formations are THE areas where a manager earns their wage, it’s where they turn draws into wins or defeats into draws. It’s what separates the good from the average.

[AsTallAsLions]

I'm as frustrated as anyone that we've only got 1 win under the belt but seriously what did people expect? It's 6 games. We've competed for decent spells in every one so far.

It's still September. Plenty of other decent teams have struggled to puts points on the board too. Can we see where things lie after the next 3 (winnable) games? Maybe then people will have cause for concern, or be pleasantly surprised by where we're sitting in the table afterwards.

[Hookeysmith]

I personally love the bloke and hope We can get a few back to back wins to ease the pressure that is I inevitably growing on him.

He is a new manager in this league with a relatively new team.

Although he must take the blame for Sunday I  have seen enough to think we will be ok

We could do with a rub of the VAR green though

Big time, Newcastle, Palace, Watford, Brighton, Southampton are all bang average.

[ChicagoLion]

I am sure it will be addressed.
