    Thorn Talk

    Hi Otis. "Do you not think"the entertainment value of thorns Football surpasses anything that Coleman dished up, he was culpable for some pretty awful, boring football, And could never deny "Lumping the ball long" Most teams in the championship, now realize that the long ball is out of date if...

    Positives

    Good Morning Torchy. I Have to rate this game as the proverbial "Two halves" I thought the first half was a pretty disjointed display, with the Sky Blues, although containing The Blues of Birmingham Quite comfortably, they did not pose a significant attacking threat, and the partnership of...

    Hi Torch. I can see where you,re coming from, but I can't imagine gates getting any bigger in div one,maybe they will just about keep pace with what we have now, but relegation will just about be the last straw for many, Have you seen any div one football, on the telly..Torch? its a miserable...

    Couldn't ask any more of the players or Thorn last night

    Couldn't understand , people On the phone in, calling it a rubish Game, and poor performance, in my opinion, which apparently is often wrong, I thought the game was entertaining, played at a rousing tempo, and 100% plus effort from the Sky Blue players. Had it not been, for a display of rock...

    Did Thorn want to sell Turner?

    Why on earth, in your wildest dreams, would you ever imagine, a manager would willingly sell any of his better players. After all thats gone on regarding players coming and going to the Ricoh, it appears that some posters, even now, think that Thorn can influence, who comes and who goes, Its...

    Platt

    "And right under the refs nose too"??? How Andy Durso, missed the attempted disrobing of Clive Platt in the box, for one of the blatent penalties, I don't know, and the other, Nimley, I think!!, having his arm ripped out of the socket, by a Barnsley defender. The ref had a poor game, in my...

    Platt

    "Target man"???Wins the ball in the air...Holds the ball up well...Decent first touch.. Strong in posession. Platt does "what it says on the tin" we cant ask for any more from a player of his pedigree, and his three points today could be priceless, thank God we've got him!! Greetings .........Tankie

    Attractive Football verses Relegation ?

    There are merits to both sides of this debate, but from a personal view I think that playing "Football" rather than long, hopeful hoiks from the goalies hands into the opposing penalty area is the way to go, and notice that not many sides at the top of our tables play crude football, its...

    Jon Gaunt

    Jon Gaunt. Is the lowest kind of Journalist, an ignorant bully, who made rudeness an art form. He used to bawl people out on the radio, no matter how old or infirmed they were, then cut them off when they started to get the better of him, he was openly proud of his uncouth manner, and obnoxious...

    Just Deserts ....."At Last"

    As I search my memory for superlatives to describe this match,I have to concede defeat, for nothing I can think of describes this magnificent display of guts and commitment that we witnessed at the Ricoh last night. I thought it put to bed the argument about Andy Thorns ability to manage, the...

    Why Hasn't Thorn Resigned Yet...

    Hi Fellas. If the flame of a take over is still flickering,It would make no sense to change the manager at this stage. Whoever takes over the club, will without doubt want to bring his own man in, so what would be the point in bringing in a Thorn Replacement, if he in turn would be replaced in a...
