    It’s Jordy Hiwula time...

    I'd rather try JCH playing deeper and Chaplin higher before switching personnel. I don't know if it's a natural consequence or tactical but with Doyle so deep, it pulls Bayliss deep too and Chaplin into the hole in midfield. Would like to see JCH holding the ball up deeper where he will have...

    If you take the stat as ( Equalizer goals scored / Goals giving lead to opponent ) * 100 then the stats for this season and the last are: Interesting comparisons against the 3 very different promoted teams in Accrington (tightly organised), Luton (freescoring), Wycombe (Score a lot concede a...

    If that's the position they're playing in, which Chaplin isn't.

    Maybe not his finishing or movement in the box but his all round game is miles better than Ponti.

    I'm voting for a tin of Marks and Spencers mints. Snus is big with the ice hockey players out here - turns your teeth black and gives you mouth cancer but is better for your short term career than smoking :)

    Bakayoko already run further in this sub appearance than both the QPR U23 game and Checkatrade combined.

    We get so deep every time we are under pressure, we can never clear our lines because of it. You're always going to get periods of pressure but we seem to extend the ones against us.

    Burge is so solid these days. Don't think I've ever seen such a big positive transformation in a Cov player.

    Their already booked number 5 is so slow. He's in for a torturous rest of the afternoon.

    Looking forward to getting back into the league and putting those cup defeats behind us. Would take a point to keep up the unbeaten league run going into the Peterborough game, as long as it comes with a decent performance. Think Robins needs to get them fired up for this one though, if not I...

    Notts County in turmoil

    He admitted in September that they overspent by 750,000 on player wages and fees last year too which is massive by L2 standards.

    Clough flapping for Saturday

    Evtimov was dropped fairly recently for their Chelsea loanee though so currently back up but Boyce will be a big miss for them.

    Come on city, dig deep. Fucking hate not being in the FA Cup 3rd round draw, nevermind round 2.

    Bookings for taking off your shirt or celebrating with your own fans after scoring are two of the craziest rules in modern footy that you. There's 3000 people there just for that moment, soak it up!

    I'm the same today. In a right lethargic grump because I won't be able to watch. Amazing how quickly you get spoilt - used to listen to the game every week and that did me fine for 10 years out here but now after a season and a half of iFollow I'm lost knowing we're playing and I can't watch...
