Good question. It makes Simms not getting any time even stranger

Exactly! If he could add that sort of aggression he'd be a nightmare for defenders

Haji looked like a bloke who hadn't kicked a football for 10 years. He's nowhere near ready, and yet he comes on instead of Simms. Looks like it's all over for you, Ellis.

Loved seeing that from Kitching. Just stayed within the rules and looked after his keeper.

Correct. He's quick with loads of energy but that's about all

Ellis Simms really needs to step up to the mark right from the first game. He's built like a heavyweight boxer, it's time he got some real aggression into his play. We know he can score goals, it's make or break for him. If this season is another failure he's just gonna end up going nowhere

Well, if you fall out with the boss, it can only go one way for you

Don't know if it's a myth that he's the top earner. Could be complete fiction put about by some rumour monger but it's a popular rumour. It's hard to believe Robins and DK would have loaded him up with 30K a week after having him here for the previous season.

Really hope this is true. Not bothered whether we're making a profit, just glad he's off the payroll. It'll be a good move for him too, the future for him here wasn't looking good.

Maybe I'm colour blind, looks orange to me

Come on you Oranges!!!

Of course, who else ???

Ideally, we move him on and replace him with a striker who is more aggressive and competitive, more able to control a pass and convert the chances he will get. Who's that gonna be? I'm hoping Frank and Dean are working on that as a priority, it looks like he doesn't have much of a future here now.

Cov City and Ipswich promoted via autos Ellis Simms League 1 top scorer

Well, that's easy for you to say 😜

Noel Cantwell, 2nd season in League Division 1, September 1968.

Bill Glazier for me too, v Newcastle September 1968

I remember Gerry Baker and Brian Hill working in the trim shop at the Jag plant in Brown's Lane when I was there. They both played in the first match I ever went to

Greg Downs - Police constable

Yes, I certainly don't think they'd dump Tuchel, or any other manager, this early in his stewardship
