    Statement signings if we go up?

    Chilwell is a friend of FL and it was rumoured FL sees him as being part of the coaching team. I don't get this issue of not paying people, if we sign a player for 12 million and has a salary of 25,000 per week, why if the player comes for a few million, or even free, can't we sign them with a...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Southampton Match Thread - Saturday 14th Mar

    Their keeper once again had a good game, but I think it was rather ironic their two goals came from two players who stamped on our lads and if they had VAR would have been off. Once again our rivals are not punishing us (Boro draw with Bristol) which will see us up.

    Potential open top bus celebration

    Interesting point. Maybe that is why Doug invited all our local songsters up to the PNE match, maybe it's a prelude to the bigger event upcoming. As for the 'open-top' bus, I agree we should use the FA cup bus as we will have 400,000 plus attending a street parade. If someone came up with a...

    Statement signings if we go up?

    Please forgive me if i am wrong but when we are promoted, not if anymore, when, we possibly have the most English coaching team in the Premiership and they have experience of working with young players. I know FL has public said he like coaching and I believe the route we will go down is bring...

    The Gyokeres and Hamer money ( and some )

    I have heard quite a few stories about Collins. When he first came in he was good but 'issues' happened and changed him. We supporters sometimes forget players are humans with needs and wants. I remember many years ago a few lads we brought over from Ireland couldn't adjust to life in England...

    The Gyokeres and Hamer money ( and some )

    And the praise has to go to Robins who signed players based on their character, and that has influenced FL so much that he has continued with us.

    Statement signings if we go up?

    In all honesty I really want Doug to allow FL to use his influence and bring in 3 or 4 class internationals from Real Madrid, Barca, Bayern or Arsenal, Chelsea or the like on a year's loan deal with a view to buy.

    Statement signings if we go up?

    I don't know, and can't predict FL thinking regarding targets but I think he will see the current squad of being the 'core' of the squad and add a few additions to it with the spine of the team. If Rushworth is doable then of course he will be a good permenant addition but we need a commanding...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    I watched QPR vs Boro and came to the conclusion that most managers have their own style and don't analyse past performances, I don't know if it is childish ignorance or blatant stubbornness, either way they hadn't seen how we had approached the game. We didn't play them to their strength, which...

    We're nearly there

    As usual people are getting worried with the 'if' scenerio and not trusting our coaches. As far I can see Rudi, who until 3 games ago, has not played anywhere near what he ia capable of, will be missing for 3 or 4 games and although we will miss him it will allow Asante to start again and we...

    Madders

    If three teams continue in the same manner as they have been doing for the last six months, Leicester will go down to Div 1, Spurs will go down to the championship and the Sky Blues will be promoted to the premiership. This is not a prediction or a wish it is fact. So if Spurs go down, and it is...

    Tactically - Lampard is pretty good

    Onyeka presence is doing wonders for the team and now teams are focusing on him more than on Grimes. If we get to the promised land, which is becoming more of a reality game by game we have to get used to seeing quality. That is no disrespect to our lads but they need a few calming influences...

    Penalties

    This season in the championship it is near on impossible to get a penalty from an infringment and I for one am pleased. We are not the premiership with TV scrutiny at every moment, this is the physical diehard championship. Last night there were two 'modern day' incidents with Sheff Utd where...

    Will Olerich

    He looks like a smarter cleaner (haircut) version of Clive.
