    Would JCH have fitted in

    Now here we can agree and then disagree again. I thought McQuoid was a very poor player as it seems you do too from the comment above. He subsequently disappeared into non league football as far as I know. Where we will disagree again is that I think Biamou is a far better, more effective player...

    Would JCH have fitted in

    As we are talking facts it was three play off games. You also talk about headed goals. In the league two season I don’t think as a team we scored many headed goals as we tried to work the ball into McNulty’s feet. Off the top of my head (pardon the pun), I can only think of McNulty at Luton...

    Would JCH have fitted in

    Not now. Max has been out for over a year with his injury while JCH has gone on to fulfill the potential that he obviously had while he was here but so frequently failed to live up to. Hence why Biamou was preferred to him at the conclusion of the League Two season and the start of last by a...

    Would JCH have fitted in

    You stated he had never scored a first team headed goal. He has. It's like saying McNulty never scored 27 goals as some of them came against non-league teams in the FA Cup. It's not a question of whether I am happy or not, it is just saying that your fact is wrong. If you look at the clips of...

    First choice midfield

    I thought that Walsh had a great debut game on Saturday. He looks like he could be a stand out player. I notice his contract at Bristol City is up at the end of this season too. Based on a single performance, so too early to really say, but I wonder if we would be in to sign him permenantly in...

    Did you watch the clip of his goals? His first goal for us was a header from a corner in a cup match. I think his first goal in the league may have been that rocket of a shot from all of 25 yards against Swindon.

    I'd agree with this.

    Thank you. Loving it so far. So nice to just have the choice of things to do during the day and not trying to fit things in around work. It does mean I can go to as many games as I want always allowing for family commitments.

    Would JCH have fitted in

    Biamou 9 goals in 49 appearances. JCH 4 in 21 appearances Max is slightly better on the only season they both played. JCH 6 in 29 last season scoring at about the same rate 1 in 5.

    It’s a shame he didn’t perform that way when he was here.

    Would JCH have fitted in

    No, don’t think so. The comparison was with JCH not Godden. Having said that, I would rather see Biamou on the bench than Bakayoko.

    Derby? (Newport and Stockport too)

    The kids might have been, I don’t remember seeing them.

    Glad our fans aren't the manager...

    I would have thought that it is a sign of a good manager who adapts the way his team plays to suit those players that he has available. Would we have won those games we lost had he changed things around? No guarantee of that at all. Every team loses games, even Man City occasionally. Do they...

    Would JCH have fitted in

    Biamou started the first game against Scunthorpe and also started against Blackpool when he got injured. I don’t even think that JCH was in the squad at that stage.

    Would JCH have fitted in

    I agree. There were times when JCH looked like a really good player. He didn’t do it enough though.

    I can only say what I know about his dad. We both played for the City Supporters Club (the one in Thackall Street) on a Sunday.

    Would JCH have fitted in

    I agree about the crosses bit. I disagree about the comparison to Biamou. Until his injury, Max was clearly ahead in the pecking order and I think was the better player.

    Thank you! Mostly Blues fans as I say but still a fair smattering of Villa (and, as far as I know, only 1 Sky Blue - me!) The hate bit is the bit I don’t get. There seems real animosity at the derby matches but you all get on together in the week.
