League One 25/26

Early days yet, but quite a few surprises in L1. And how nice to post this in "Other Football and Sports" rather than "General Charlton"  :)

Stevenage on top with 4 wins out of 4, with Jamie Reid scoring 5 goals.

Peterborough and Plymouth bottom with 4 losses out of 4, while Wycombe have also had a terrible start to the season with just 1 point from their first 4 games, and Reading have zero points from 3 games.

    Stockport near the bottom too. How much difference a new season makes!

    Was loads of Plymouth fans on twitter calling Cleverley the best manager in the league when he took over. Not quite working out how they'd expected

    Wycombe on just the 1-pt after four games... How long before Dodds gets sacked? - He's started the season as badly as he ended it
    They've been so poor since he went there, just 8 wins in 25 games.

    Home to Reading this weekend who've lost all 3 games so far. If Wycombe lose that then surely he has to go.

    Wanted to put a bet on him being first manager being sacked in League One before season started but couldnt find anything online. If I did now, I'm sure it would be pretty short. Dodds is a PE teacher rather than a football manager

    Might be in minority, but not surprised with Peterborough being near bottom again. They had a poor season last year, and eventually pulled themselves away from a really poor relegation lot. 

    Just feels they've finally ran out of steam with manager, players as a collective, and ownership getting things right. 
    Especially after losing Poku, Mothersille, Jade-Jones as well... Must be the first year where they've not really been successful at replacing their danger men that they've lost?

    Would expect Dodds to be the first manager sacked. Should have gone after the Playoff semi loss. 

    Peterborough starting badly isn't a surprise, they've lost their key attacking threats and haven't adequately replaced them. Also get the impression Mcanthony is one Twitter rant from selling them.

    Don't think he'll find a buyer too easily, they have a lot of debt and some of that is linked to the last time he tried to get outside investment in. Sounds harsh but I actually think they need a relegation reset

    Yeah I wouldn't expect it to be an easy deal for anyone to do but I also get the impression if they don't pick up results he'll get bored again.

    So glad we are not part of the conversation regarding us in this league…🥳😁

    Interesting one with Wycombe is that they’re playing better each game but are continuing to find new and exciting ways to throw games away. 

    Wouldn’t surprise me if they hit some form soon but equally reckon they could hit the panic button. Dodds doesn’t inspire confidence.

    Leyton Orient’s start is a testament to Richie Wellens and how he’s managed to recover from a complete upheaval in the Summer.

    Stockport are probably playing the best football in the league for the first 60 mins in each game, but they are continuing a worrying trend they started last year of throwing leads away. They’ll need to cut that out if they’re going to challenge at the top.

    Plymouth’s start is the most alarming. They’re really not playing well and are not looking at turning it around any time soon.

    Another player they lost is their captain  last season Hector Kyprianou, who joined Watford on a free in the summer. 

    The whole business model of the club relies on them getting big fees for players they discover or bring through, enabling them to buy the next generation of talent, but without these fees it becomes much harder to do this. Jade-Jones went to Germany on a free, so like us with Aribo, they'll only get a tiny development fee.

    Think the players have seen through it now, it's a great chance to bump yourself up the leagues and then get a nice big signing bonus on your next move
