We would be one of the better off teams or least worse off teams depending on your outlook, in a scenario of a BCD completion of this season, with all games on i follow open to UK viewers as well as those overseas. Given our support base, position in the league and the developing thirst for...

Football had already started to change by this time and teams were not staying together for as long as you made out in your earlier post. Freedom of Contract had been in place for about 6 years by this point, the effects of which we had already felt by the loss of players like Thomas, Gillespie...

Bolton and Southend deserve to go down every bit as much as we deserve to go up. Any cancellation outcome that involves them avoiding relegation will be a travesty.

Whatever makes you think our owners would shy away from legal action?

You've posted this before about Speedie being disruptive in the dressing room and I've challenged you every time. Yes he was a fiery character and yes he might bollock someone if they didn't come up to standard, but I have never seen anything from his ex colleagues to support your statement. The...

Another complicating factor is that Wycombe's game in hand is away to us. To go above Oxford, Portsmouth and Fleetwood they would have had to beat us, or draw with us to get ahead of Peterborough with everyone played 35 games. The play off situation in our league is the most complicated factor...

It was hot and the game was incessant from start to finish, with both sides priority being to play offensively rather than defensively, which made it fairly unique for a cup final. Fitness levels are higher these days of course, but even now given the type of game it was, modern players would...

He definitely had a shaky afternoon, but to be fair to him he made some big saves in the semi final to help get us to this day. Luckily his team mates rose to the occasion - Gynn, McGrath, Bennett, Houchen and Regis particularly were fantastic. What made it even more satisfying was that Spurs...

The defenders stood off in this instance as they couldn't compete with Regis and Houchen on the day. It was what teams commonly did when a forward had real aerial presence. When teams defended against Duncan Ferguson they would similarly stand off him and look to hold their defensive line, and...

What Promotion pay out is that?

That's a difficult call. We did have some awful atmosphere at HR games too. When we left HR we were on a downward trajectory and might have even been relegated that season, but for the positivity and larger crowds that those final games against Forest and Derby generated. The initial years at...

There is probably a tipping point at which the Government have to balance economic interests against public health interests. It is not feasible that they can cover the costs of people not working in the long term, without it having a grave impact on us all in the future, which in turn will...

Huckerby always seemed to hit top form in December/ January for some reason, and this coincided with that period.

I imagine it is being considered, like everything else. However, the likes of Bolton and Southend deserve to go down and should do so.The only 'fair' scenario is for the remaining games to be played, whenever that might be and whereby issues of promotion and relegation are decided on the pitch...

You're making a common mistake that football fans understandably make in thinking that players automatically coach in the style they are deemed to have played in. At his previous clubs Mark Robins is viewed as defensive minded, despite having been a centre forward, while I don't recall Adi...

I didn't mean it the way you are interpreting. I'm sure all the players and the teams they play for would be happy to extend the loans with us, but will our League 1 rivals? To extend loans beyond their contract would have to be something agreed by the majority, and most of our rivals will not...

Hughes played well for us in his first season at HR. After that though Morrell's words really do ring true, where Hughes played like he couldn't be arsed. If the players saw this though, it doesn't say much for the manager letting him get away with such behaviour and still playing him. Must have...

You are right that all contracts run as standard to the end of June, but loans however run only to the end of May to cover the prospects of play offs. As such there is a danger we could lose the services of McCallum, Walsh & O'Hare beyond that date, unless there is a common agreement to extend...

Baker?

We've played Rotherham twice. In this scenario we would have 3 games to play
