    Birmingham

    Never trust Directors who do not have a clue. When Eustace took over Brum they were nailed on relegation candidates. Turned them around and they are doing really well at the moment. Unsure how well or badly Rooney did in the USA, but get the overall feeling he is a mediocre manager from his...

    SHOOT

    Absolutely get it. However, lost count of the times yesterday we took an extra touch and were blocked. Didn't shout shoot though, as they never listen.

    Does Robins lack ambition ?

    Usually the players coming on are not as good as the ones going off. Just fresh legs. Yesterday the players who came on were usually in our first choice team. They had been rested due to 3 games in a week. You would expect them to make a difference and they did.

    Does Robins lack ambition ?

    Like for like matches against the same teams (assuming Burnley = Leicester) we are 3 points down on last year. Played a lot of away matches early on last year. Still think we are a job in progress and missing the injured players.

    Norwich ratings

    We never beat Norwich lately so not too disappointed. That said, they have been dreadful away from home which should put the result into context. Thought we started poorly and got lucky with their attacks down our right which flashed across the goal. Cock up for their goal. Was it Eccles that...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Norwich City Match Thread - Saturday 7th Oct

    Godden fan here. With three games in a week, if Godden is not rested then MR clearly feels the other two together are not up for it together. Fingers crossed we can avoid defeat against Norwich as they always seem to mug us. No Pukki who always scored against us. Whenever I see Norwich, I am so...

    Blackburn ratings

    Played off the park but won. Kelly was getting near them and putting the boot in before his injury caused by having to race back. Ayo looked like a young kid when he came on and we were swamped in midfield. He did produce one touch of sheer class that gave us the win. Will be a top player...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Blackburn Rovers Match Thread - Wednesday 4th Oct

    What is all this bullshit with Godden. He is our top scorer and would have scored at QPR if Simms had more awareness of his position instead of shooting from a really tight angle. Godden is making the runs, creating space for other players and works his socks off. MR trusts him to do what he is...

    Marrakesh fabulous, Tarazhout not so much. Endless hassle. Haven't been since the early 80s however so may be ok now. Stayed in a fabulous place owned by two British gay guys. They took credit cards there in Morocco when they said a what in Lincolnshire? so hopefully a stream for you.

    Wilson V Collins

    Wilson is the goalkeeper that does not often come for crosses, is a good shot stopper and ok passing out without being exceptional. If the defenders do their job, he is brilliant. Can't think of a goal that was his fault this season. Is a great player to have in the dressing room with his...

    QPR RATINGS

    Thought we were ok today but we were playing poor opposition. Feel for Wilson conceding again due to poor defending. Awesome save kept us in the game and a good save in the second half. Deserved a clean sheet. Defensively, we are not where we were last year and look dodgy on crosses prticularly...

    5 At The Back Needs To Go

    To be fair, there are people on here with the attention span of gnats. It is important to generate genuine debate even if people don't agree with you. Surprised you never got the fell asleep half-way through replies from the geniuses who want to show what brilliant comedy characters they are...

    Strikers Who Came Good

    Old brain gone, that was Ian Gibson. Saw Terry and Mick Hartford in town. They looked really scary and hard especially Hartford. Such a shame he was injured right away

    I think the insistence that we buy potential was in hindsight wrong. If you can't get the player you want, get a loan to tide you over.

    Not sure on the timescale, but I thought the God thing turned him around.

    Strikers Who Came Good

    Terry Gibson was another difficult character who used to laugh when the team lost. Used to be ITK back in the day.

    Strikers Who Came Good

    Regis was a bad boy, night clubbing, drinking and staying out. He had his arm broken by some local criminals for shagging a djs wife. Then he found God and the rest is history.

    Match Thread vs Cardiff (A) 19/09/23

    Absolutely not. Like you I would probably be shit. However, I don't ever think I could solve our current problems with some 1970s or 80s solutions. Fear and heavy handed actions simply don't work anymore with millionaire footballers. Fortunately, we have experienced staff in charge who know what...

    They need a rocket up their arses

    Don't think any of our players didn't give 100% at Cardiff. One or two off form, some schoolboy defending and injuries at the wrong time. We were all over them at the end but ran out of time. Rockets up the arse? Might have worked in the 70s or 80s. Different times now. MR has the respect of...
