I think the East Stand has a capacity of around 14,000

Looking to next season MR will have to choose between Kelly & James, as I don't see both being needed. I also suspect McFadzean will only be offered another season if we get relegated. As for the rest of the players, a lot on here seem to think many of our players have reached a ceiling which I...

Da Costa does not look like a natural defender to me. His defensive positioning is poor, so I would be worried about playing him in a back 3 or even at full back in a back 4. To a degree we can get away with his playing as a wing back but that's the only system he seems suited to.

The more I think about this the more I think that we should try to re-arrange our game with them during the international break. I know it's not ideal and I'm guessing we would have to do without Ostigaard which would be a blow, but whose to say if we have to cram a game in with them on a...

........ and he could have come on and taken a penalty instead of David Batty!!

Has he already applied and been refused a visa? Please read my earlier post - get media support, but more importantly find an MP willing to make representations on his behalf and it is highly unlikely his visa application would be refused. The Home Office do not like negative media comment &...

Less negative interference from the Stadium Advisory Group would be a bonus. Always seemed like they were actively working against the interests of the club right from the QPR match when we first played at the Ricoh and had to play in front of a reduced crowd, when we could have filled the...

I would wait until matches are played in front of crowds and Covid restrictions are relaxed. Post Covid he might need to get vaccinated before travelling anyway - not sure how far advanced that will be in Uganda. When he does apply for a visa it might also be wise to get CCFC involved, as well...

There should also be a great big asterisk put next to our historical averages for this latest period, given it includes 'home' games played in Northampton and Birmingham.

A lot is going to be dependent on the options MR gets to make. The more season tickets are sold the more SISU will release the purse strings, so much of what will happen on the transfer front is in our hands as fans. edit - Just read this back and of course it is stating the obvious, but...

City fans love to jump on a bandwagon so if it looks like season ticket sales are taking a big leap, the club need to keep the PR wheels churning over by emphasising those sales so that others are encouraged to follow.

£299 is a fantastic season ticket price for the Championship. I know we are not a traditionally big selling season ticket club but I hope this changes that, even if only for a season.

Rotherham are a big physical side, so losing Ostigaard could be difficult for us if that's how things pan out.

The only way for Rotherham not to play 3 times in one week is to play us or Luton during the international break, with the other game played in the mid week before the final weekend's fixtures. Big call by the EFL as to how they arrange this. Anyone know if Luton are likely to have any players...

You've misunderstood. I'm saying you can expect more of the same. McFadzean was an exception to the rule, and there is a chance one old hand might be brought in I guess, but generally the club will stick with its policy of buying younger, cheaper players. Given that our whole team should have...

Those players you mention brought in at League 1 level now have championship experience, and I anticipate a number of those existing players from League 1 will significantly improve from this year's experience. Given our continued financial limitations I can't see us bringing anymore than one 30...

There is still a quarter of the season left. We are reaching the point last season when football was put on hold. The difference in the Championship table at that point compared to how it ended up should make everyone realise that so much can change within any period of 12 games. For what its...

Wasn't one of Robins best games as a manager. Still can't fathom why Biamou wasn't brought back for set pieces - it could be argued that he is more effective doing that than in his role up front :) Not so sure McCallum would have ended up marking their big centre half for their first goal if...

I know we were only a very small part of his footballing career but given his overall impact on football I was slightly surprised our players didn't wear black armbands last night.

Seems nuts not sending Biamou back to defend set pieces. Would also like to see Dabo more involved going forward.
