I won't be waking up with a boner tomorrow morning but I won't have shit the bed either and I'm kind of alright with that, which about sums up my feelings from the football today too.

These Birmingham Giants would be better suited to basketball. They'd get 3 points more often too.

Gyokeres is a forward not a striker. Robins will love him - looks happier doing the defensive work than trying to score.

Karanka can't have long left in management in this country.

Keep it as it is, Jamie Allen for one of the strikers on the hour if it's still 1-1. When the space opens up in the 2nd half, they'll hate midfielder runners running at and past them. Especially with so many on yellows.

We seem to be looking to drop a lot of balls over the top. Not sure this is the pitch or conditions for that, there's another pass in all these moves and plenty of room between their CBs and fullbacks

We put the referee under 0 pressure to give decisions for us or not give them against us. So passive.

I've got a good feeling about him, doesn't seem like an 18 year old, or your average footballer, at all. Sounds mature, grounded and like he wants to learn. Looking forward to seeing him on the pitch.

And me, in that 2nd scenario. If you didn't score the 2nd goal you wouldn't have won, so how can the first goal be the winner?

1 goal conceded in our last 7 home games. What an impressive stat that is, especially after conceding 12 in our first 5. Only been turned over by Bournemouth and Blackburn. 20 points from 36, 1.67 PPG. Will be what keeps us up in the end and encouraging given the teams around us that still have...

Ha. Clive commentating through a comb and paper. VVVVVVVVVVVolley!

And if that pitch was at the Ricoh we'd be screaming about.

Glad to see Marosi on the bench and involved in the warm up too.

Looking forward to seeing this 2-3-2-1-2 formation. I'm going for 2-1 City, both goals from Viktor Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, or whatever his name is.

I'm expecting a big reaction after the previous game and a much brighter performance. Given the players we have missing I'll be happy with a draw IF the fight and passion is back in the performance. Limp to another defeat and we'll be in danger of getting stuck in a rut at the wrong time of the...

Would imagine the uncertainity of that is a harder sell to foreign imports though. If you think you are on to a gem with sell on potential and offer 2 with an option but they come back asking for a straight 3 years, it become s a tricky scenario.

Maybe Robins is missing a trick and putting the player's biggest weakness on the front of their shirt is the kick up the arse that they need to progress.

Maybe Hamer will go to Right wing back when we sell Dabo on the last day of the transfer window to cover running costs, and James will play alongside Sheaf. :devilish:

Well this season we are now extremely limited by the players we have fit within an already weak squad for the level. If we're staying with the box we've only really got 4 from 5 to pick from who should be getting anywhere near a start for us in midfield: James, Sheaf, Hamer, O'Hare and Allen...

We already see how few assists Dabo has, despite a number of excellent crosses every match, because he gets level with the box and has no-one to aim for. So there's no point doubling up and having two wingbacks bombing forward crossing the ball into 1 striker, who isn't especially good at...
