    Because we've no one else and the windows closed so you gotta make do with the players at your disposal till January. Take JJ out the side and you've no ball carrier in the midfield and we are quite predictable. At least pushing Haynes up into a advanced role you'd have pace both sides and a...

    No coverage on the radio side of things either. Had to resort to traditional radio on FM

    Must be as he's not in the squad tonight and the u23's didn't play with a striker yesterday

    Yeah the "back to back" games that are away also. Big ask to win away sometimes. The leagues not exactly consistent at the best of times, just like the city! Stevenage are on a bad run currently but there home form is pretty good. W4 D3 L2 F17 A13 - 15 pts from 27

    Robins Summer Signings

    I can honestly see Tom Davies stealing the centre pairing spot with Rod Mcdonald very soon. He's not as quick as Willis but as the pitches change I don't see the need for Willis pace as I've not seen many quick strikers that Mcdonald couldn't cope with especially as we're generally quite deep...

    To take 6 points in the space of days from two tricky away games will be huge, tho I'm not 100% confident. Do the city do back to back away wins? I'd take a point now but after the huge boost of confidence from Saturday we should be confident of another win.

    SSN are reporting he misses tonight's game. Looks like the balance is swinging towards tonight he's suspended for not Saturday. Be nice if the club actually said

    Super Rod was a undisclosed fee, but worth every penny! Class act he is

    Robins Summer Signings

    That's who I thought of yes, that's who Robins quoted in the summer. Then he was thrust into the 1st due to Willis being injured and did a outstanding job. Was unlucky to be dropped tho it was done for tactical reasons to give a balance of attributes to the back 4.

    Robins Summer Signings

    Not one for picking holes but if I'm reading things right you comment on Nazon who as you say is on loan from Wolves. I'm sure part of the agreement with Wolves would be he played 1st team games in L2.... not u23's football for us in the lower development league where he could do the same at...

    I was just going on what our informative Clive and Geoff said Saturday after the game and the census on here. That to me suggests what my initial thought was on Saturday that it was a "tactical" 5th yellow he got. But then I'm also sure the slates wiped clean at the end of the month??

    Seems to be some uncertainty when it comes into effect. 7 days some quarters are saying so it makes him available for Tuesday and suspended for Saturday

    A few uncertainties around a few at this stage I'd imagine... did McNulty pick up a slight injury or was that early sub tactical, and Jordan Shipley, how's he recovering. Only cramp so I'd imagine he'd be good to go again. --------------Burge---------------- Willis--Davies---McDonald--Haynes...

    Only the one exit was in use, I managed to get out about 5.45 and had the phone in on to pass the time!

    All the best for season

    We do have players who are the boo boys favourite targets yet others can make mistakes and it's let slide as they are favoured. I don't get how Haynes can be singled out for being part of the process for the cross being allowed into the box yet Willis escapes any form of criticism. Even...

    Shipley and Jones

    I think this is where we focus too much on JJ and hope he's the key to unlock a game. I was very keen giving Haynes a run further forwards as I think he's attacking attributes he could offer but Shipley looked solid yesterday. We need a balance on both sides of the pitch, ideally the luxury of...
