DK What do you mean boring I am so edgy. I even have an original Beryl Cook painting depicting a scene from a gay club. My wife says I'm special and Carly Simon wrote a song about me. Something to do with my private plane journey in Canada. Look at the third kit I have arranged. Black! The...

Doug King (DK) How's it going Mark? Mark Robins (MR) Well we have a problem. We have lost three midfielders but only brought one in. DK Yes but we had to get rid of O'Hare because he wanted to play every game and he keeps posting on Tik Tok. I was getting worried he was becoming more popular...

I was ITK at the time. Cyrus said he only ever saw Andy Thorn on match days. Was very upset with the treatment he was getting as a young professional by opposing players with no protection from the refs. Think a match at Bristol was particularly horrendous. Of course, Cyrus now dishes it out...

Yes but does anyone have a link, as I am struggling to find even an obvious observation? MR is not going to say the set up is shit.

Back to basics I feel. Need to keep it tight and counter attack. Will be interesting to see if players returning from internationals are on the bench.

I think Nick Hornby said football is not the same anymore as when he wrote Fever Pitch. The money, the Prem, the entitlement of the top 6. He feels something has been lost along the way. I remember when I was younger and we won, I was on cloud 9 for a week. If we lost, the whole family were...

Lot of backroom staff now.

Again, I must have missed Robins saying how much happier he was with the new set up. Please could someone please provide a link. Certainly, all I noticed was "It is not my remit" when asked about a Tavares loan to Reading and "No comment" about new players. In those interviews with Adi in the...

Don't think the ITKs know. Loads of people have said bullying, fall out over O'Hare with King or with the new performance management. When you are one year into a four year contract, I don't think it is for organisational reasons. The way the club have made sure no one talks about Adi and no...

Must have missed that. Do you have a link? I thought the club has put the shutters up and no one has mentioned what went on at all.

On reflection, this thread would have been better served much later in the season. Almost impossible to predict how players will progress at this stage. Even Vic and Gus started slowly and many people on here were criticising Sheaf. The only thing I would say is, that at over £4 million a piece...

He was a piss head. I know several people who bumped into him in pubs off his face.

Yeah, think he will get better but over 4 million looks high at present.

Well a good few people think we have a strict transfer policy where we can only now buy to improve and profit. Here is my take on most of the current squad regarding making money at this moment in time: Dovin, Asante, Bassette, Rudoni, Binks, Raphael too early to judge Neutral. Up in price as...

Think at this stage any talk of MR getting the sack should be binned or it may become a self fulfilling prophecy. My take on the club is that DK has looked at successful Prem clubs and decided to follow their template. Frankly, that is good business practice, although innovation is sometimes...

Biggie caught something horrible in Africa and screwed his chances. Bright has just been stupid. Bayliss may have got better if he stayed. The rest are where they are for a reason.

Last season when people were saying Ipswich will be promoted, I thought no way. This season Sunderland were tipped to finish top. Can't be right surely? When people were saying it will be easier this season, I said it would be harder because most teams appear to have upgraded their managers...

No life

Well he might be an improvement currently even with just one eye.

No doubt in my mind he wants the riches that the Premier League provide. May hang on if he thinks we can compete in the top league, but ultimately think he is planning to sell at a massive profit. The only fly in the ointment is getting promoted.
