True, it’s a weak position us and think Binks or Kitching should have a go there until an adequate replacement is signed.

Agreed. At least at the top end of the Championship and above. We’ve got a good squad, he’ll have all the resources needed to succeed and as a club we represent a great opportunity for him to restore his reputation as a good young manager.

I don’t think it’s a write off yet. Looking at the turnaround we had in 22/23 and even Cooper taking Forest from bottom to 3rd the year before… a good run of form will correct course. Get January back and we could be ‘so back’.

In fairness, our xG per shot is above average. The issue is that people are taking the stats at face value. Game state is an important factor that tends to go unnoticed here. We spend so much time in losing positions we’re going to trend towards more possession, more shot taking and conversely...

Why would last night have given him a kick? 😂 Negotiations don’t just happen 😭

Looking at the drop off in certain individuals really points the finger at the coaching of the players. The organisation is just not there defensively and in attack there are times we just look devoid of ideas. It’s something that not many Cov fans would consider, but it’s possible that sacking...

Agree with that. Despite doing well on xG metrics, the eye test shows that we struggle to break teams down. It is a bit slow and we rarely take advantage of the pace we have in the team with Wright, EMC, Sakamoto, Bassette, BTA and even Simms to be fair. It’s all a bit slow and predictable...

We need to look at why he isn’t in the same vain of form as last season? We’re just not playing to the strengths of any of our strikers. BTA and Simms haven’t become shit players overnight. As for Bassette, he was naive last night but because he’s energetic, his inefficiency is let off the...

Rudoni is doing better than COH in a team doing far worse.

4 including the League Cup and 75% of those had Thomas and Kitching at CB. This should tell the incoming manager a lot.

Agreed and to be fair to Burnley, their defensive organisation is top notch which is why they are at the top of the table. It is pretty dour football to watch, but they’ve got a way that clearly stifles most teams in this league. If they could score goals, they’d be romping this league.

Let it all out friend! We’re going through a rut as a team! It’ll get better, I hope!

Well, in 3 of our last 4 games we conceded writhin the first 20 minutes. I missed the opening goals v Luton, Derby and just about made it for Sheffield’s opener at the weekend. Starting so many games on the back foot is just not good enough.

He supports Burnley and Simms won a few headers which probably endeared him to the Clarets in attendance. Just a guess, this was my flatmate’s dad who was at the game so I could interrogate that any further. We looked a bit flaccid, Bassette’s positioning wasn’t great and as Iwelumo said on...

It’s my turn to make you feel better. I lumped £550 on the PL package this season… 😂 My cost per game is slightly lower than yours though! Keep faith me old Mucca!

100% - maybe King was fundamentally right about Robins being exposed without an elite coach such as AV aside him.

Didn’t Robins sign off on these coaches by his own admission and indeed King in the conference where he ‘threw MR under the bus?’ At least with Lampard, he seems intent on restructuring the entire coaching setup (again).

This describes about 90% of our goals conceded this season.

We were 9th last season with largely the same team. By definition, we’re not far off the playoffs.

This is why we’re being in Lampard after this stretch of games… 😂 Joking aside, it’s a good opportunity for the new manager to get off to a flying start.
