If he had been that we would never have had a sniff at signing him

Their owner will probably buy their training ground for £100m!!

Why were Blues so happy to release him then? Doesn't feel comfortable being in agreement with cc84cov but the Blues fans I know don't rate him either. He did well in the pens against us last season but in the lead up to those matches the Blues fans saw him as very poor & were happy to be rid of...

There are faults all over the place. McCallum got done for the 1st & 3rd goals. O'Hare was slow closing down their player for the 3rd so that he was in the penalty area when he raised his arm. Not sure who but someone vacated their zone for the free header for the corner for the 2nd. Could...

Rose hasn't been the player he was last season but that doesn't mean he can't be that player again. Because of his injury he didn't really have a pre season, and unfortunately he has effectively been having his pre season in competitive Championship games. I rate all of our defenders...

Not gonna criticise Marosi for not saving penalties but i do need to see Watford's 1st goal again. After their lad had beaten McCallum and got to the byline I thought he crossed it close enough for Marosi to dive out and collect the cross. Marosi was positioned at his near post in the perfect...

Depends whether he actually plays though, as I don't think he is a starter for Norway.

Straight from the cliche handbook :)

McCallum?

The QPR pen was McFadzean unnecessarily diving in recklessly on their player towards the side of the penalty area. Hamer has also twice had to be taken off to save him being sent off. We still won anyway against Reading but against Bristol City it definitely helped lead to them taking back...

Where does all this bomb squad talk come from? Does such a thing exist, or is it just a lazy term being used for players that are just presently out of favour? Are they training on their own at the Memorial Park like McAllister's original bomb squad? Now they were a bomb squad, as they were...

Never really got that wheelbarrow song. Notts County fans regard it as their song!!

Pre Premier League, I'm pretty sure Graham Taylor and John Toshack both took teams from 4th tier to top tier.

It was Willie Carr to Wolves that fell through. Agreed figure was £240,000. We ended up selling him a year or so later for less than half that. That also precipitated the sale of Denis Mortimer. Would have much rather kept Carr & Mortimer than brought in Lloyd. Wasn't the best transfer business...

This fawning over Better Days inside knowledge by many on here is not something I buy into. I can accept that he might have had a disagreement with someone at some point but that kind of thing will be commonplace anyway in any workplace, but until I see one of the management or players from that...

That was a lazy rumour put out at the time by people who get off on inventing such stories. Never seen anything from a reliable source to back it up.

I remember your fans definitely wanting Johnson out when he was your manager, and when Mowbray was our manager when we beat you 4-3 at the Ricoh. Ironically from that moment on your fortunes positively transformed while ours went downwards. Your fans got their wish though as he left for Bristol...

While I hope you are right, and believe that if we perform on the day that we can definitely win, expecting an 'easy' 3 points is definitely a case of looking at it through Sky Blue specs. I expect this to be a real tough game and one they will be targeting as an ideal match to get their season...

Eustace was much better than most of our fans recognised, and but for injuries would have been a top player. Even so he still had a very good career at Championship level.

Very poor by Shipley. He was a couple of yards in front of the defender when the ball was crossed so should have got there first. Their first goal was such a basic one to concede. We seem to be letting in similar soft ones week in week out andwe can't keep leaking 2 goals a game if we are to...
