What are people’s plans for this? I’m travelling solo today - I’ll be in Stoke-on-Trent for 09:48.

That's a little early MMB, are you going up to the Cultural Quarter up Hanley duck and sample half a dozen bacon cheese and brown sauce oatcakes before the match?🤣

As an aside, is it just me that MR really doesn't look a happy chappy lately and appears to be complaining about most things?


He was pissed off that he wanted 3 in the window and got 1. Yes i know EMC, but thats not for now is it

We were in for 2 prem loans,Rak Sakyi being one, 'we' take that as Doug or the club or whatever, wouldnt pay the loan percentage wanted by clubs

No think there are quite a few of us noticed he is not a happy chappie.
Doug King never gets a mention either, think he has a lot of questions to answer. Which he won’t.

I'm not on about that comment. I don't agree with it

I'm saying more about you saying godden getting in good positions then messing up. But when a midfielder does same that's not good enough for you and u like to have a go.

Just seems like double standards because you have a favourite

Talking shite as usual I see

If that's true it's not necessarily something to be unhappy about.

Like most fans I want us to get as many good players in as we can but Doug has to manage the club's finances properly. I don't want us to get in the financial mess that Sisu did, which got us uncomfortably close either to ceasing or exist or out of the Football League.

By the standards of recent decades these are exciting times to be a SB supporter. We are tantalisingly close to being in the play-offs for a second successive season and are playing some attractive football.

Robins bears plenty of responsibility for the squad being thin - it was him and the recruitment team who decided to divert all our cash into building a 3ATB-based squad in the summer, which has left us with redundancies and shortfalls now we’ve switched to 433.

It's the coldest for sure. Bloody freezing when the wind blasts over their ground.
Nowhere near as cold as Grimsby, especially the away end. It is open to the wind coming off the Humber estuary.

At the end of the day we have a squad and that squad is there to be utilised. If there are players in the squad who aren’t good enough for the first team then why weren’t they released? Large squad or not we have to rotate and the players that come in need to have robins trust.

Good TBH. Don’t need short term cash spending. Well get there over the next 3-5 seasons whatever.
