    Assuming Robins has been watching us play

    You would think he already has players in mind to bring in. Is Saturday too soon we think or will we have new recruits as soon as he takes his seat? Usually a new manager come in and assesses the players and squad and has a good look at them first. Can't see there's too much to assess though to...

    Has the remit changed?

    Waggott and Fisher talked of the requirement target this season being top 6 and promotion. With us now bottom of the league they surely couldn't have told Robins last night that he needs to get us into the top 6 by the end of the season could they? That can't be his remit. Surely the goalposts...

    4 away games, 2 goals

    4 away games, 2 goals scored At least two games where we haven't had our first corner until after the 60th minute of the match. Deja vu? Sounds just like last season. We are not scoring enough on our travels. Unless things change we are going to have just a miserable away campaign as we did...

    A couple of village idiots

    And you get world wide protesting and burning of flags and attacks against embassies etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1LU7t3mSHo&feature=related These guys sum up the whole thing nicely. Have to say that humans are pretty dumb at times.

    If City were a band

    Who would we be? I can only think of 'One Direction' at the moment.

    The coach

    Fisher/Waggott the other day alluded to the fact that one of the 9 candidates was a coach rather than a manager without any managerial experience. Just wondering who that might have been and whether or not there is a possibility that he has made it to the shortlist of 3. Billy McKinlay is the...

    May have been alluded to before ...

    But does anyone else think that the City might be leaking a few names out here and there to gauge reaction of the fans? Wilder last week and Brown this. Someone from the club no doubt reads the forums so wondering if they are testing the water a little with the Sky Blues fans. Not saying they...

    Time for coffee

    Have people woken up yet I wonder? A few on here I recall saying before the season that they felt we would go the entire season unbeaten at home. Crazy talk of course. Remember arguing the point at the time, asking as to where on earth the sudden winning attitude would come from after season...

    88 mins 58 secs

    Anyone who recorded the game on Sky today, play it back and fast forward to 88 mins 58 secs and freeze frame it just about there. McGoldrick has the ball on the left flank and is just lining up to cross the ball. In the picture are 8 Stevenage defenders, all in and around the box, 4 inside, 2...

    Question!

    All those fans who left just before the final whistle or at the end of the 90 mins ...... they were aware there was penalties after weren't they? Expected the odd old codger to leave, but quite a few fans did decide to go which very much surprised me. Penalties are exciting to watch anyway and...

    A question CWR or the CT need to ask

    If they haven't already. Can't recall anything, but pretty sure that no-one has asked if we are only casting our eye over managers out of a job for our vacant role and not looking at any manager under contract because we simply cannot afford to do so. Moves the goalposts considerably if they...

    That's Shaw blown his chances surely

    Can't surely get the job after today. 1st corner for us in the 90th minute. Just hope it's not Blackwell. Really need someone to inspire us.

    The JPT

    Wasn't that bothered about it at all to be honest, but just had an email from the club re the Burton game and it's only a fiver for season ticket holders. Got to be worth going for that surely? Still going to be a small crowd, but for a fiver!! As long as the team take it seriously it's got to...

    Paralympics

    Watching the coverage of the opening ceremony and asked my 8 year old what sort of disabilities she thought the competitors might have. She guessed at blind people and those with limbs missing ....... but then went on to add, people who had no hair or who were pregnant. :D

    When was the last time we won a game in extra time?

    It wouldn't be 1987 perchance would it? :thinking about: I can't recall us winning another game in extra time since. Maybe I've missed one, but been wracking my brains and can't recall one. Certainly been a long, long time for sure.

    Simple song for McDonald

    Cos simple songs seem to be the only ones City fans can cope with and we haven't got one for lad. Anything a bit more complicated just seems to get lost in the ether. To the tune of Old McDonald. "Cody McDonald got the ball, ee I ee I oh. And with that ball he scored a goal, ee I ee I oh. With...
