Amazon delivery drivers who dash up the drive, don’t ring the bell, leave the package on the doorstep in full view of all passers-by - obviously too much trouble to leave it six feet away hidden behind the bins as instructed - photograph it and then dash off.

What’s that?

I think that’s unfair on Rapha. The received wisdom seems to be that, when he arrived, he didn’t have the stamina for the Championship and attempts to get him up to the required standard were foiled by injuries. I think a fairer assessment is that he is unproven. We will probably discover his...

I agree that the goal against Trinidad proved little but he is a proven goalscorer in the Championship. A greater level of consistency would be a bonus but if he can carry on scoring at the rate of twenty over a full season then you won’t hear me complain.

I was going to make exactly those points. We need to keep Haji if we can and replace Simms with a decent striker. The only problem with this is that I think EMC would be a luxury if he is just cover for Haji. EMC did have that good spell when he scored a few goals. Could he play as a striker...

I can’t see Lampard being the next England manager but he could get the job at some point in the future if he has a couple of good seasons managing a Premier Lesgue club. Hopefully that will be us 🙂

I suspect it’s Doug King capitalising some or all of his loans to the company in order to strengthen the balance sheet, in which case it’s not new money.

IF they spend their pot of gold well, I can see them getting automatic promotion. Where Leicester finish will depend almost entirely on whether they get a points deduction and,if so, how many. They could probably cope with the loss of half a dozen points and still get in the top two. A dozen...

Roland Nilsson. Class act.

I suspect that his period of being happy here ends as soon as a Premier League club comes in for him or even a Championship side that can afford to pay him higher wages. It’s the way of the world ☹️

Sadly, I think Simms has to go. He did well after a slow start last season and I had hoped that he would kick on from there. For whatever reason he seems to have gone backwards. I’m not opposed to keeping BTA, as he is a different option to our other forwards, but happy to see him depart if we...

Makes you think he would be better as a left winger but we have superior options there.

That’s the answer to a very good pub quiz question. 🙂
