    Nobody wants to deal with their mortgage issues at a bank with few staff. It's like trying to get hold of a real person at HSBC today, it's become the norm now but it wasn't then.

    Yesterday was disappointing, especially the first 25 min. We were lucky to escape but we did. Robins said the same. It's time to move on

    Sure but he was responsible for sacking a whole load of staff and eventually waiving his fat bonus cheque under pressure, while the tax payer was gifted the toxic debt and the customers 'all' moved their mortgages. This I think is part of the strategy towards a hostile takeover of the club, at...

    I wasn't a Northern Rock customer thankfully but he's not remembered fondly among those who were.

    That's what they thought at Railtrack before the Hatfield crash. They were criticised heavily for having no engineering expertise on the board. You are right though the lessons have not been learnt re corporate governance..

    Why aren't game 2s at the weekend? Is it just for ticket sales etc?

    Kelly got a knock from someone, Doyle maybe, I can't remember now.

    To the Godden knockers we need to remember that it was his worldie a few weeks ago that put us in playoff contention in the first place. He's played in a few games where Robins would probably have preferred a box midfield because we haven't had the players. It is quite possible that Allen might...

    Let's hope that Eccles is fit (as well as Hamer). He did go straight off

    A great shame we couldn't manage an early goal as Monday. With them chasing the game we'd have gone on to win it today I had been thinking. We were much too deep but they couldn't finish us off luckily. Still in it and all to play for..

    McSheffrey critical of the quality out wide on CWR. Sky were pointing out the space between the top two and the midfield which left Gods and Gyoks pretty isolated. I was mad at Hamer for shooting with Gods totally free on the left. He was 'a bit miffed' too.

    They're poor defensively, far too open. Remember where you heard it first ;)

    Take over

    That's for certain. Robins would need to be promised the season no matter what up front.

    Make sure they investigate the cause properly won't you, can be a lot of things from kidney cancer to blocked artery in the neck etc etc

    Take over

    He'd be daft not to really, it must have been his plan but it could happen earlier than he'd been anticipating.

    4-1 home win. I think we'll be far too strong for them at home, especially if we can get the 1st goal. I hope they don't sit back and play too deep though or we're in trouble.
