    can you think of any?

    Old Brucie was knighted today and i got to thinking about all the 'catch phrases' down the years of various managers we have had. Boy were there some good uns as they say! Can anyone remember any? Who kept saying: "they put in a good shift" for example? Perhaps just some of the crazy...

    Pathetic international breaks....boring!

    What numpties decide this kind of pandering to footballers? I thought they only played football and keep fit? They are so hard done by. ;) Oh the stress......

    2 week break...put in the time coaching then!

    Two weeks before we face what will be a nervy, edgy team from Nottingham desperate to make a good start under a new manager. We have home advantage where we have been reasonably successful so we should be more than ready to attack these boys from the get go! That means two weeks for Thorn...

    So Forest at home next...this could be good!

    Mc Claren factor and all! If he loses this one he will go surely? That is putting untold pressure on our boys if I'm honest. Step up Cody...lets show us the way forward from here.

    So looking at the league table...

    The fact that there are no breakaway teams yet and the top few are inconsistent. We have done well against some of those too, then I think this will be a very interesting season. I don't believe anyone stands out. It makes me think we could when it all clicks to together for Thorn, even have...

    Harrison's coaching...

    I know he has a great C.V. but for me something is not right here. He has been coach under the last few managers and we have had our problems in defence, midfield, set piece defending etc. Thorn has tried to instil a different pattern of play and yet some old habits keep returning to thwart him...

    So who plays tomorrow?

    Should Bigi be back? Doubt he will be but surely on the bench? Will Deagan feature? Will Cody start? Should Cameron come in to central defence? rest Christie Move Keogh out right? Think Blackpool will crowd the middle. I would want a ball winner in there. Who would you have on the bench to...

    Unable to be there....what's the honest assessment?

    Missed a pen at the death...oh how frustrating. Without slagging them off what was your fair assessment of those who went up today? In particular Conor Thomas and that central defence again as I was surprised to see Cameron not in today. Should Deagan have come on? How was Cody McDonald?

    Are we similar the Liverpool?

    Well that's a heady headline but think about it...for a moment at least. Playing terrible last year and Thorn comes in late on and changes things and gets results, promising a style of play to entertain. A diamond formation. Liverpool really poor and Dalglish rides in late to the rescue...

    Summation everyone...how different did we all see it?

    Think we shot ourselves in the foot within 10 minutes. Some nice footwork but no real bite. We had crosses plenty of time from Bell but no one attacked it sufficiently. Cody will get his goal and unlucky to have not one but two cleared off the line. I thought the substitute Macca for Bigi got...

    So just how good are we?

    Can't help thinking that a really solid performance at the Boro' earned our lads a credible draw when I expected them to lose as I see the Boro' as title contenders while my gut was saying we could do something there. And so we did. Boro' have now gone top after another win today. Derby...

    A big thanks to OSB and Godiva

    For once we have had some facts laid and now y'all can understand the position we are in with a bit more clarity. An excellent effort by both of you to collaborate and give us a realistic low down of the facts. Lots of brownie points garnered. It's like having a cloudy wine suddenly taking...

    Thorn has list...looking for a few prem loans

    Let's hope he gets one or two! Any ideas who might be his targets from prem clubs?

    How much are replica shirts in the shop?

    Have we made some 150k in sales of the new retro shirt?

    Alistair McGowan - City supporter?

    On some TV program he has said he used to drive from Evesham to the City to watch them to support his team? I always thought he was a Leeds fan but he is from Evesham...
