What happens if Dovin makes a recovery by Dec-Jan and gets injured again outside the transfer window? The club needs to accept that we just need to sign a GK irrespective of what league we’re in next season.

3 players challenged Haji for the ball for Rudoni’s goal. There’s been several goals this season where defenders gravitate around Simms too e.g. Paterson’s goal v Pompey.

GK is a priority area in the summer. Dovin is class but if his recovery takes longer than planned, we can’t be having Wilson or Collins in goal for a lengthened period of time.

Unfortunately, those dodgy passes from MVE are not as uncharacteristic as you’d think. There have been several occasions where he does these passes to no one and it invites pressure. Whilst it’s only lead to 2 goals in recent memory (Plymouth and last night), it’s something that needs to be...

CBs double up on him and Sunderland’s CBs were noticeably wider apart as opposed to teams we’ve played in more recent weeks. Even for Rudoni’s goal, Wright occupied 3 Sunderland players to let Rudoni bullet the header in. Start the team thae same team that battered Sunderland 3-0 at home.

At this stage of the season, form does go out the window. Both of Sunderland’s goal scorers last night hadn’t scored in months and had lost 6 of the last 7 games with barely any goals scored. On another night, the ball perhaps falls to us more kindly in 2-3 positions and we score a couple of...

He and Vik had some fantastic individual moments that dragged us through games. The tactical framework was laid by Robins. If we made as many basic defensive errors in that season as we have this year, we’d have been a midtable team. If you don’t concede a goal over 2 legs, in most cases, you’re...

How can you look at our results and conclude we’ve relied on individual magic. It’s like saying Robins relied on Hamer and Vik to just ‘do something’ back in 22/23… No would hold Robins to that double standard. Big players win you matches at all levels.

Any game plan would work against you if you’re going to give two goals away.

Context is everything, their form at home was heavily weighted with the first half of the season. Ours was hampered by the poor home record under Robins. Poor defending and goalkeeping for both goals tonight and the usual scapegoat didn’t play. MVE takes so many unnecessary risks with his back...

They’ve defended well, but haven’t offered anything going forward. Which is concerning given their more recent form in terms of shots on target, chances created and most importantly, goals. They do not have the home record to necessarily be happy with a draw going into Tuesday.

It could be worse, we could be Sunderland who’ve been poor home and away. In all seriousness, conventional form is somewhat out of the window now. Looking at how the game has played out so far, these don’t look like a team who’ve finished 4th.

59% on the Telegraph poll reckon it’s football’s best anthem. I’m obviously bias but this is the most original and authentic football chant in the Football League. WLADITT was penned with many parts of the country in mind, as was The Special’s ‘Ghost Town’ but both songs had Coventry...

Exactly this. I didn’t get a ST in 22/23 (v much regret it) and my points tally is 1400+. The midweek games really add up and my points tally would be 1500+ had I been able to get a handful of tickets in my name as opposed to a friend or two.

Villa finished in the UCL spots and got beat by Forest B (Olympiacos).

This tie is all but done and dusted now. I fancied Bristol to get a result tonight even if it was a draw. 3-0 is devastating for them. 4 away wins all season and they trail 3-0 going to Bramell Lane, it’s not looking good.

Robins has a job to do at Stoke, he’s moved on and so should we. As the years pass by, it would be nice to see him be welcomed as a guest of honour but it’s still a bit fresh for all parties.

Scored 2 goals in a brief period of time, much like for us last season. He is just not a prolific goal scorer and in hindsight, the best case scenario was selling him in Jan 2023 had he not got injured. Pretty clear visualisation that Rudoni is a significant upgrade. COH has a better pass %...

Frustratingly, I panicked and got a ticket from a mate unable to go up the game in the 1500+ bracket… it made to my sale window and didn’t get one in my name! Shocker.
