Reading were third with 18 points and QPR were seventh with 15 points. Coventry were bottom on zero points after seven games.

I don’t think there is a case to get carried away but I think we can be pleased the club is clearly heading in new direction, they spent on a manager, they worked the transfer window very well in my opinion on frees. We seem to be also improving and developing players.
Let’s see what happens.
Coventry weren’t minus but they did play fewer games at the start as their pitch was messed up by rugby.Quote:

Definitely shouldn't be carried away, I'll be very surprised if we are actually a top 6 side come end of season but it's very positive in terms of the direction we are going and you can see a path to us being among the playoff contenders. Especially if we can spend a bit of money smartly in January.
Cue Bulut getting into a massive barney with Tan and getting himself fired and being replaced by Morison in mid-October.
Ah yes that was it.Quote:
