I think Palmer is fit. I just don't think he has the natural fitness to play 90 minutes at the pace the team are set up when we play at our best like Allen or O'Hare do. That doesn't mean that he doesn't contribute or won't contribute, but with the increasing use of subs across football, there...

The only chance is to keep the team together and add a couple of 'quality' loans to bulk out the squad for when injuries and suspensions inevitably kick in. At this moment in time that is a very unlikely scenario.

Didn't take long though to see that injuries had made him wary in the tackle, which is a bit of a drawback in League 1.

I presume that if a preferred bidder is chosen and given a period of exclusivity it is wise to be sure that the bidder has the requisite funds. I think its a safe bet that Ashley does have the necessary funds, certainly more so than maybe a Dawkins or SISU led bid would. Derby got caught with...

It is further than I thought to be fair, but still one of their easiest games to travel to being straight down the M4.

I think 2k is it. They played Bristol City a couple of weeks back and they only received that allocation despite it being very local to them, so I wouldn't anticipate us getting any more.

They all played their part and deserve our thanks. I would also add Liam Walsh who was probably our most influential player in the League 1 winning season.

Cov matter to me more than England, but will still watch every match I can once the World Cup starts. This World Cup does seem slightly weird having it mid season but I hope England can win, even more so if Maddison & Wilson get to play more than a bit part. What I like about the World Cup is...

The game I remember him flying in recklessly last season was against Huddersfield. If he had dived in likewise on Saturday think Chair would have bought a penalty out of it, the same as O'Brien did in that Huddersfield game.

No one seems to have commented on Wilson pulling out from diving at the QPR players feet (Chair I think) in the 1st half, when he ended up putting the ball in the side netting. Wilson has previous form for recklessly diving in on similar occasions in the last few years and conceding a penalty...

I know we're not exactly at half way, but now would seem the perfect time to put half season tickets on sale. The club always seem a bit slow on taking advanatage whenever there's a feelgood factor though.

MR has done a fantastic job but I can't see him possibly replacing Gyokeres in the January window and us still having a shot at the play offs. I so hope we can persuade him to stay until the end of the season, and that the owners can be persuaded to wait to cash in until that time too.

Probably because in those games the opposition have looked to take the game to us. Wigan are probably going to set up in a more defensive pattern and sit deeper, allowing us less space to thread passes in from midfield and for Gyokeres to get in the space behind them. That said I have no problem...

It is also possible that MR will go with 2 up front (maybe tonight?), leaving room for only 3 of the 6. Who plays then?

I haven't looked it up but at HR we did have a decent record against Liverpool in the 70's/ 80's, particularly considering how good they were. There were an awful lot of draws though which were like moral victories. Maybe its Sky Blue tinted specs, but I can remember as many wins as defeats...

This should be fun - perhaps we could all have a guess at what school Grendel went to. I'll start with guessing King Henry VIII.

They seem quite happy with buying him so far!!

We are all in the dark at the moment. Until we are clearer what the actual situation is there doesn't seem much point in taking a stand. I guess we could always take a lead from Father Ted though :)

Another thing that doesn't add up is Ashley only being interested in controlling the arena. His previous attempt to take over Derby suggests that he wants back into football. Common sense also indicates that the fortunes of CCFC will provide a focal point for publicity surrounding the arena...

I don't know for definite but I thought it stood, and only liquidation could change that. The back up plans to play somewhere else was more to do if the Administrator did not keep enough people on for the stadium to run events, rather than whether the terms of the agreement stood. That was my...
