Reid has to start on Tuesday, he has to be motivated to do well against them. When he is on his game he is an asset to the team, if he hadn't come out with the "gentlemans agreement" bollocks then he would have been first choice no. 11 this season and Shipley would have still been in the U23's...

O'Brien isn't the answer, his comedy roaming and flap at the ball started the Alamoesque shooting frenzy last week against Stoke. He kicks right footed off the ground and left footed out of his hands and both ways awful! You could play Burge and O'Brien in goal at the same time ( may as well...

I thought that Comley was involved in everything good that they did, he broke up play well, kept Doyle occupied and had a good passing range-he was definitely their stand out player. Didn't think too much of the other guy Barrett, and he was subbed off anyway. Could do alot worse than to make an...

I would love to know what he was saying, lots of chest beating so I'm guessing lots about heart and passion? Did Doyle just tell him to get off the pitch when really he should have been apologizing for the shite performance of the team?

I like the way that him and Jones swap wings it has to cause problems for the opposition defenders. If I was Robins I would add another one into the mix by getting Vincenti to pop up in the middle from time to time, he could flick on headers to the fast boys or just get knock downs. The...

Wasn't it Mowbray who said of Haynes, " He really needs to decide if he wants to be a footballer or not", what ever he mean't by that I'm pretty sure it wasn't complimentary?

Gouldy and Shnozz, the "Dream team"!

I think that Kwame (when he came back into the side after his injury) had the shit kicked out of him by the opposition and all credit to him, he got back up and didn't look intimidated at all. I reckon that this pre season he needs to do some work with the weights to bulk out a bit and he could...

Both the old Main Stand and the Sky Blue Stand opposite could have been cantilever with double levels as the club owned enough land behind both to accommodate this. It would have meant that we had twin level stands on three sides for a fraction of the cost of the Ricoh and given us probably an...

My nephew asked me yesterday about the construction of the old East Stand, as he thought that its opening may have been his first game at Highfield Road, but since my memory is pretty much sieve like I couldn't put a date on it? I used to go up Swan Lane on the way home from work most evenings...

Mr Fisher also said that Robins would be working with a "Top eight" budget. How could he possibly calculate that and on what does he base his figures on to comply with FFP? With the increasing probability of minimal season ticket sales (if people are true to their word) the playing budget would...

What!!!! How very dare you question the mighty ones "job for life" status? How many third division clubs that haven't got a pot to piss in still employ a full time couldn't coach a goalkeeper as long as they have a hole up their arse / dugout proper upper / substitute paperwork hander inner /...

Quite, if we are to be paying his wages whilst he is injured then at least he can get to Ryton and help out with the kids, nowt wrong with a bit of experience to coach our baby strikers who will be first teamers next season.

Glazier was out for a year with a broken leg and only returned later in 1966, maybe Jennings was seen as a young understudy or cover at the time. Doesn't really matter because he didn't come and Glazier came back even stronger.

Another one we missed out on, City were interested in signing him in 1966 whilst he was playing for Newry Town and was the N.Ireland Youth team goalie, but Watford snapped him up where he played 48 games before being signed by Bill Nicholson for Spurs.

Worth bearing in mind that Slade has also been fucked over by Fisher as he wanted to bring Kevin Nugent in as his assistant and that hasn't happened. I suspect that he was made fully aware of the budget constraints when he signed up but not to being able to bring in your own sidekick must have...

Could the problem with the pitch be due to less sunlight being able to get to it because it is actually below the ground level?

Hmmmmm....Byatts. Lovely jubbly!

I would stick Turnbull up front as a target if needed, better than having another fucking midget trying to get onto the end of the hoofballs launched from the back? He's a bit skinny and a pushover for our defence but he only has to get a flick or knock down for the runners like...
