    Robins wants midfield general

    Isn't Henderson supposed to be that sort of player? I seem to remember Robins saying something about having "a wand of a left foot" but also that he could "put his foot in when required."

    Is it really that bad?

    I'm usually a defender of Murphy, but I'm getting sick of his inability to release the ball quickly, and to simple hoof it. The number of times MK simply collected the ball and came back at us I lost count of. When yo add the number of time Edge had to bail Wood out, you're close to a cricket score.

    The worst? I can think of a couple of othe candidates. Julian Darby? Sherwood? Give me time, I'll give you a couple more. On last night's showing, you could probably add Wood to that list.

    robins barnsley formation at cov

    Width? What's the obsession with width? The days of two strikers getting on the end of crosses from wingers went out with the dinosaurs. Teams from Barcelona to your local park side no longer play a standard 4-4-2. The so-called diamond expects fullbacks to get forward. 4-2-3-1 is favoured by...

    Id go for the second of those formations. 12 players on the park might just help. On second thoughts ...

    Is Stuart Linnell correct?

    Stadium ownership has bugger all to do with our situation. People seem to think the Arena is a golden goose - it isn't. Until recently, it barely made any profit at all, and even last year, the profits just about equate to what CCFC pay in rent. So if the club owned the Ricoh, and took out its...

    James Wilson

    The clue is in the "signed a new contract last year". What makes anyone (including Sky Sports) think we can afford a transfer fee?

    A futile attempt I guess to stop all the Thorn stuff

    I'm buggered if I'm going to take it on.

    attendance for tommorow

    On Tuesday night, someone said to me, "The team just didn't turn up, did they?" Well neither did the fans. Attendance was (if you believe the announcer) 13,974. That was when we had to win to have a good chance of staying up. Now we none, and even allowing for the last haome game getting a...

    success or failure

    I don't buy all this business of Portsmouth's 10 points. It's pretty straightforward to me: if you commit a foul, it's a free kick. That's the rule. If you go into administration you lose 10 points: that's the rule too.

    Bigi!

    Apparently it's about achievement on and off the field - e.g. includes academic achievement, attitude etc. And he's been playing for the academy recently - he's still technically an academy player.

    Crunching the numbers - why we are almost certainly down now

    Statistics are wonderful things, they can prove anything. Wake me up when we can't get enough points in actuality to stay up.

    Orange Balls

    At least we won't be paying for running the undersoil heating: we only pay rent, it's up to ACL to provide us with a pitch to play on!

    Foolish Talk Again Thorn

    So what were these wonderful substitutions he should have made? Our bench was Dunn, Bell, Wood, Baker & Eastwood. What a wealth of talent!

    The clock is ticking transfer window countdown thread

    If Clingan goes, we'd need a replacement for him. You can't expect Thomas to be consistent throughout a relegation fight, and he could get injured. Clingan won't go until the summer.

    So, what EXACTLY is required for City to stay up?

    Either one point more than the third bottom team, or a better goal difference (by one goal) than them - it's as simple as that. Forget the "we need so many points" malarky, all the list of where fourth from bottom finished in terms of points tells us that we may need somewhere between 42 and 52...
