I think it’s clear that our end game starting front 2 are Haji and Simms. You don’t invest £11m to put one or more on the bench. This is creating an issue for Robins I suspect. Of the 3 Godden is probably the least impactful coming off the bench. When the game is stretched and there is more...

I’ll be totally honest I’d never heard of Tats, Milan, Binks or Haji before this window but I’m super excited at their potential. @Saddlebrains do you know who has been doing the due diligence on these players. They are not the sort that Austin or Johnson would have looked at at previous clubs...

I don’t watch our under 23’s but I’m surprised very few ever appear to be pushing to make the first team squad …. Even Howley is technically in the age group below. What is the issue ? Is our academy just not attracting the right calibre players because of our category status ?? There isn’t...

I’m not surprised that we have not heard from Robins, King or Boddy this last 2 weeks as they are all probably on much deserved holidays. I am surprised though that the Cov Tele never try to interview Austin et al. I think understanding how their last few weeks have been, what a typical day...

It was very noticeable last night that when Vik pulls wide and beats his man we do get bodies in the box but their movement is not that of a goal scorer. When big Vik doesn’t score we don’t really have that final cutting edge. The Waggy over Tavares decisions will continue to surprise us all...

One of the things I like about MR is that post match he normally is pretty honest about our performance. today I’m surprised by his comments that clubs in the championship are splashing the cash and it will be tougher to compete. it’s not actually factually true. the only clubs spending money...

I can’t remember a summer where we haven’t had at least one trialist in pre season or a player training with us to get fit / earn a contract offer. I might be wrong but it feels unusually quiet this season. Maybe at championship level the trialist piece is just at under 23 level ??

Corbiano, Swine, Hayden all look to have potential

@betterdays Do you think Robins is planning to increase our pace in the full back positions ?? So important to the way we play.

So it seems clear from the comments of Boddy and Robins that we will cash in on at least one gem this summer. If you had to lose one key player who would if he and why ? if sell O’Hare first. I love Callum as a player andhis end product has been much better recently, but I think you could...

Crikey how poor were Benno and Lorna Bailey yesterday ! loved Bennet as a player for City but their post Match analysis was embarrassing. It was like listening to 2 people new to the sport but trying to blag it. Listening to them explain why we would be better not to go up this season and go...

Tore Dabo apart all match …. No end product but that level of pace and directness is one of the missing dimensions in our team. long standing city fans will remember that sometimes you can create problems for teams just through raw pace …. The Bobby Gould team of Quinn and Rosario had a front...

I really think a focused and loved Bright could be a big player for us this season. Im not sure that Robins is the right manager for Bright. Robins demands that players earn their chance on and off the pitch …. Bright looks like he needs a Harry Redknapp type to believe in him and get the...

Robins said a few weeks ago that one of the players he hoped to bring in was a long term target. Unless MR now considers one summer to be “long term” it would suggest either we missed out on him or he’s a left wing back and could still be incoming ….. Any insights @betterdays ?

Reading the reaction to Craine, Soares, rumours on the forum last night it amazed me how quick people were to form an opinion on whether they would be a good addition or not . I watch A LOT of football, probably too much, but I probably watched Luton less than 6 times last season. I don’t...

He’s never one to seek the spotlight but Robins has been incredibly quiet this summer. maybe the rumours of a difference of opinion with Boddy over recruitment targets and budgets are true. very few comments after each friendly. hopefully more comments tonight with the season so close.

Signed for Norwich. All agreed by Tuchel and Farke. billy wanted to go to Rangers on loan

Anyone with any insights as to how these two are impressing ( or not ) in training ?

Axed. Incredibly arrogant and dismissive of us when they beat us. No tears shed.
