    Is that luck? Good coaching and investment in infrastructure, surely.

    Not our finest moment, that.

    Dean Austin’s Strike Rate

    I think he's been affected mentally by his injury, which isn't surprising, considering what happened to him. I think with recruitment, the issues haven't exactly been who we've brought in (with the caveat that we can't expect every signing to be a success), but more who we haven't.

    Oggy named our greatest ever player.

    Hutchison was before my time, but everybody who saw him says he was our best. Oggy was an legend, and probably the most iconic player of my time supporting the club, being completely synonymous with it, but that's not the same as being our greatest ever player. Dublin's the best I saw play for us.

    You don't want people to put their lives on hold, or for it to affect their personal lives, but a bit of professional pride wouldn't go amiss.

    Relegation Battle?

    If we don't end up in a battle, it's because there are a high number of very poor teams in the league, not because we are too good to go down. Without Wright, especially, we are desperately poor.

    Probably not, but I wouldn't put money on it. This team is dogshit. We've played some absolutely honking teams this season, and other than Hull and Plymouth, we've looked as bad as any of them.

    Why was he signed?

    I cannot express how much I fucking loathe this team.

    Anybody else just want it to be May?

    I think it's more there were genuine expectations this year. We've spent a lot of money and there was enough last season to suggest we'd be there or thereabouts. Or failing that, at least entertaining So it's just been such a massive letdown with not just poor results, but some utterly...

    Transfer Rumour January transfer window

    Attention-seeking fantasist. Don't give him the oxygen of publicity.

    It was completely accidental. I think he apologised immediately. Yellow for having his arm up, that's it.

    This. That first half, Cardiff won so many of the 50-50s. They wanted it more. It's probably demoralisation as much as anything.

    Championship thread 24/25!

    This is the most frustrating thing; Leeds are a cut above, and Burnley are very solid, but there are no really outstanding teams. It's really open for someone to potentially take advantage.

    That's the problem, though; they don't seem to care enough to really give it 100% total commitment. There are no bodies on the line players. Cardiff wanted it more than us today, and that's by far the first time you can say that about the opposition.

    What's up with Ben Sheaf?

    How come he improved season upon season culminating in being hugely impressive last season and dominating two Premier League midfields, then? He's an extremely good footballer who's out of form in a shit team.

    Rudoni …?

    Good passing range and vision; can strike a ball well. I think he's a better footballer than O'Hare, but not as dynamic, and it was O'Hare's energy and ability to drive the ball forward that was so integral to our play.

    We had Sheaf and van Ewijk looking proper players who could play above this level then; they look like they don't now want to be here. They probably don't. Kitching and Thomas looked a decent pairing for a while, too, but something clearly not football related has gone on with Kitching, so...
