So Bolton, Stevenage and Peterborough were the final three sides with a 100% record in League One and all of them lost on Saturday. It leaves us, Portsmouth and Wigan (who would now be top!) as the only unbeaten teams and of course we are the only team yet to concede.

The weird results keep coming - Charlton losing at home to Port Vale (before anyone says 'we should be beating sides like Port Vale'), Barnsley who beat Vale 7-0 losing at home lost 3-1 to Oxford (and guess who scored!), Pompey only drew 0-0 with Cheltenham (no comment!) and Burton got their first point with a 0-0 away draw.

Bar Derby beating Fleetwood, there weren't many 'predictable' scores and that seems to be League One so far this season. 3 points between the Top 12 - yes we should have had a couple more points on the board but it's certainly not been the disaster some have made out.

Quite a few of the Top 12 play each other on Saturday providing more opportunities.
 
It shouldn't be this way this early but bit of pressure on us to get that next win.
 
Not sure how it’s weird? We beat Derby in the week also and clearly had a good window/restructure under Liam Manning! Looking forward to welcoming you lot in October, hopefully you’ve scored again by then 😂.

Where’s Kyle Joseph gone btw? Was hoping to see him push on this season

It’s funny how the likes of Wigan and Oxford don’t play a shitty 3-5-2 formation.

Haha thats because we don’t really have the wingbacks tho, i think we would if we had the players to be honest… 🙈

Personally quite like a 4-2-3-1.

I swear i saw people raving about Lyons and Gabriel? I honestly don’t know much about them but i thought you lot had decent full backs?

Gabriel is another who has joined the 23/24 Crock Party - he was one of the main guests last season as well. Think his current injury is a paper cut from opening all his self branded sweaters!
