No, you miss my point. AFTER the Sunderland game would make sense, for the sake of 2 more days. It's quite abnormal to sack a manager unless they've become completely unhinged this close to a game when you have a 2 week window just round the corner. It's like Doug's desperate to sack him, and...

It's so weird to sack someone this close to the Sunderland game, when you've then got a 2 week break. It's almost like they don't want to risk him winning it (typical City) and keeping his job...

And guess who Sporting play next in the Champions League 🤔 I hope he gets 6!

I think we've already got £4m in add-ons, and will get another £6m if he goes for his buyout clause, so we may still get that £30m in the end anyway!

Definitely need to go all out against Derby, win that and Sunderland would then be a free hit. Players will have had a good amount of time to recover for the Derby game, we'll need to make the changes for the Sunderland game as it's a quick turnaround from Wednesday night to Saturday.

Unless you're going for top 2, it's all about muddling along picking up points where you can, and then going on little runs of winning 3 out of 4 (4 out of 4 last season dragged us from the bottom to back in contention). So, 3 points from the next 2, more would be a bonus, should propel us...

You can add West Brom, at least away, to that, as well.

It was so blatant in the second half against Wednesday that we was hiding and didn't want to get injured, with a keen eye on linking up with the new US squad under Pochettino. How many times was there shit loads of space on the left when Bidwell/Da Silva had the ball and Haji was hiding and not...

At some point we'll go on a run (hopefully!). I think the previous 2 seasons we had a run of 4 wins on the bounce at one point, that really catapults you up there. We only really need to be midtable within touching distance all season, with one well timed run, and then finish strongly when we're...

If we can manage Sheaf's fitness between now and January, resting him when possible to keep him fit for the majority of games, then we should be able to get ourselves into a decent top half of the table position, minimum. Then hopefully we can recruit in the CDM position in January (even better...

There must be a reason why so many teams don't leave a couple of players up... To us mere idiots, it seems like an absolute no brainer to leave 2 up so they have to keep 3 back. I genuinely want to hear from someone in the football world at least what the logic is against this, if not, why it...

People get so irrational about results at this stage of the season. We're losing games by 1 goal - we're in every game we play. Time and time, under Robins, we have bedding in phases of new systems and players, until it clicks and then we go on mad runs until injuries/fatigue hit us. Other than...

I'm going to all 3 but if I had to give one a miss it would be Spurs anyday. Watford is a 3pm Saturday kick off, so can make a day of it and it will be fun regardless of the result. The Spurs game is a Wednesday, which is always more of a pain, going after work and with work the next day; the...

Does this mean Sakamoto isn't out? Or will we need someone to replace him as well? Probably Asante or maybe Bassette can play on the wing. Ghana play their last game tomorrow night so BTA may be ok to start

My theory on Lati is Robins is using him more at the moment for his leadership, as he's an experienced talker and organiser from his youth career at Man City. Particularly at a time when we have new players and are trying to play a new system. He used him a lot at the start of last season too...

How is Jamie Sterry not getting a mention?

Sky blue army, Sky blue army, Up We Go!

Had to log into each of our accounts individually to buy tickets in singles. Seems to not ne working to allow buying for people in your network. Hopefully this gets resolved, had to pay for multiple postages too!

He probably knows about the frustrations, but is adopting the more recent tactic politicians use. See what they can get away with, and then retract quickly if the public outcry is too large.

Yeah, I think and hope so too. If he does then happy days. If he goes later on, and assuming we've pretty much finished assembling our squad, I'd like to see us maybe one bonus player of real quality and keep the rest back for January. We'd be really well placed to have a good go then.
