    Mark Robins resigns

    I really hope not. Andy Thorn has come in, stabilised us, got us playing good attacking football, and for him to lose the job, would be a massive kick in the downstairs region. I guess though, if Ranson and Hoff want their own man, then they'll appoint their own man. Im just hoping that they...

    Academy graduates

    Well Conor Thomas is the obvious one, we all have high hopes for him. Aswell as Jordan Clarke and Nathan Cameron, Josh Ruffles and Gael Bigirimana have been getting rave reviews. I think we'll see them make a couple of appearances next season. There is also our youngest ever player, Jonson...

    Academy graduates

    The 3 that I thought of were Danny Sturridge, Chris Kirkland and Calum Davenport. Yes Kirkland has had his and a few others fair shares of injuries and Calum has had a torrid last couple of years, but they were both quality youngsters. Andy Whing was another that was good for us, but has faded a...

    Who would you all say is the best player to come out of our academy?

    Fed up with all the speculation.

    Agreed! I have no sources or anything like that, but I have a feeling that Gunny will stay, Marlon 50/50 but Westy definitely not.

    Quirke....still don't understand the idiotic decision to let him go!!

    Quirkey did look decent when he played, but we haven't really seen enough of Danny Ireland to give a proper comment on how good he is. To be fair, Oggy and Thorny see them both every day, so clearly think that when fit, Danny is a better overall keeper. That said, I was still very surprised that...

    Jordan Clarke

    I think its a tad harsh to say that he's not a Championship standard player, but everyones entitled to their opinion. When he first came into the 1st team, he looked good. He was keen, eager and didn't look out of place. Then the few games he played early this season, he played very poorly and...

    Chris hussey

    Big fan! He's good going forward, but also appears to have improved drastically with the defending side of his game. Really impressed since being in the team and long may his quality performances continue!

    Stoke City or Manchester City ?

    I would have said Stoke, but after hearing some of their fans booing Arsenal's Aaron Ramsey upon his return to The Brittania last week, I've really gone off them.

    To Many Centre Backs?

    It's a difficult one. I guess if we knew that all our players would be fit for every game of the season, then yes, we wouldn't need that many, but judging by our previous injury records, we will need every one of them. If one was to go though, I would probably go for Wood aswell.

    What new players should we bring in?

    I wouldn't want Tyson to be the big replacement for Marlon, but I think he could do a decent job. He got a fair amount of pace and maybe our system would suit him. We certainly create enough chances for our strikers.

    FA coy over Capello successor

    This may be controversial as he isn't English, but I'd quite like to see Owen Coyle as England manager. Young and upcoming, plays good football and gets the best out of his players. Wouldn't just pick players on reputation either. I have my bullet vest on. Im prepared to be well and truly shot...

    What new players should we bring in?

    Nathan Tyson from Forest? I believe his contract is up at the end of the month, so he will be available on a free.

    What new players should we bring in?

    Chris Lines from Bristol Rovers is another one, as is Adam Le Fondre. Lines is a goalscoring central midfielder that I believe we were linked with last summer or last January. Bristol Rovers have also been relegated so he could also be available for a lower fee. Le Fondre is a striker that has...

    What new players should we bring in?

    I always thought that we should have signed Lee Barnard a year or so ago, before he moved to Southampton. Banged in the goals for Southend (Though I guess the same could be said for Freddy) and has continued that for Southampton. Im pretty sure that they only signed him for around 200k aswell...

    What new players should we bring in?

    He's not a big name player, but I like the look of Danny Green from Dagenham & Redbridge. He really impressed me in the play-offs last year and it sounds like he had another good season in League 1. They have just been relegated, so he could be available at a decent price. He's still pretty...

    Why wait so long?

    I guess they don't want to hurry them, risking pissing them off. They've been set a deadline and i'm happy with that. Agree about Sammy. I would also say the same about Martin Cranie, I do not want to see the same situation with those 2 aswell. Im trying to think who elses contract will be up...

    King's replacement

    I don't think that's a bad shout actually mate. Even if that were to happen though, i'd still like us to sign another striker.
