    It is a truth universally acknowledged that a football fan in possession of an away scarf in the home end, must be in want of a bust lip and a black eye.

    Rudoni injury

    Cov Tel article (update on the injury from Frank) confirms there was a dislocation and that it 'popped back in' again. No mention of it dislocating a second time, which I believe was what led people to think the injury might be more serious.

    How is Aled Williams employed?

    I'm not sure Collins 'deteriorated' - I never really got why people on here seemed to rank him above Wilson in the first place.

    Apologies to Dean Austin

    I never had any problems with the players we recruited. So it's fine if you feel the need to backtrack, but there's no need to apologise on everyone's behalf. Some of us coped a bit better with a few setbacks earlier in the season.

    If you haven't been going to home games recently, don't underestimate the time now required to get through the various traffic problems.

    Ah yes I've seen that one now too. From the highlights, he's offside relative to Bidwell but it's impossible to say whether Kitching (slightly out of shot but deeper than Bidwell) is playing him on. Marginal either way.

    The VAR guys aren't using the TV to make the call. Sadly in the crucial split second that counts, Haji stuck his foot out and was offside, as pictures posted by me and others showed at the time.

    Yes, but I'm talking about multiple comments since the match blaming the lino for being 'behind the play', when the various pictures show he'd have to be a magician to be in line with both of the passes in question.

    So we've got this still of the lino being perfectly in line to make the (correct) first call. Then people are moaning that he hasn't kept up with a sprinting championship forward (simultaneously watching the players on the pitch the whole time of course) to again be level when the second pass is...

    Cov v Stoke

    He was fine, nowhere near as bad as people made out, and as you say the main reason was the fact that both the club and the Championship were new to him. His ability was clear enough to see, and he was unlucky not to get a few goals, but as is depressingly common on here, he got rated as a...

    Cov v Stoke

    They are both good enough players to switch sides IMO, including during a match.

    The ghost of O’Hare finally laid to rest?

    Ran all day, and a brilliant player in tight spaces, but no ability to really strike a ball. Hence the feeble shooting and lack of crossing. Rudoni delivers more.
