To be fair, the club have brought it on themselves a little bit with the expectations. They were quite happy to cash in on the feel good factor with their #risetogether and suggestions of back to back promotions (when the early bird STs were on offer) Robins: “We need to keep moving forward...

I'd have loved to see Kirkland back. Has his depression under control, only 37 and could have been the long term replacement as GK coach even if he was coaching the youth to start with.

Forest Green at home he spilled a nothing shot into the net and we lost 1-0. Exeter he came charging out of his goal like a mad man, got nowhere near the ball and then eventually sliced a clearance 10 yards to their forward, lost 1-0. LOBs 2 were Newport and Yeovil, lost 1-0 and 2-0 respectively.

Goalposts will shift for those folk too. Was previously 'well we're city fans, it's been shit for 50 years, what do you expect?' but now we've had a promotion and 2 wembley trips in 12 months it'll be 'yeah but it was a tinpot trophy and L2, we shouldn't have been there in the first place' or 'I...

I dread to think what the atmosphere will be like if we haven't paid half a mill for a striker or scored by HT in the Scunny game.

Found the presentation, music, editing were good and the presenter very likeable but thought the content itself was generic and very high level - nothing I couldn't have found myself in less time by quickly searching on the internet and nothing that provoked thought/debate. I enjoyed it overall...

Was very average in his first season and terrible in the 2nd. Seem to remember he only got 1 goal all season.

Would have thought Sergei Rebrov was more what we needed, short nippy striker and still only 44.

Standard management. Let him play in a 'big' friendly and give him loads of praise so that he feels a bit more content with having to sit on the bench for the season.

But the real question is which end of the division will this side be exiting? ;)

Maybe he was returning Hyam's pocket having finally got out of it after Wembley.

What flavour crisp tree is it?

Do you think that whatever striker we sign will have just been sat on their arse all summer? Off the top of my head, JCH and Andreu have both played Championship footy. Doyle, Willis, Ogogo, Kelly have all captained L1 teams. Jones, Burge, McDonald, Grimmer all had seasons in L1

For the 2nd season in a row too. And on long contracts. People moaning about us signing U23 players and people whose careers have stalled through injury but with a core squad on longer contracts that's exactly what we're able to do - take a gamble on players with big potential or bide our time...

Any chance you could go back to lurking?

When he played last year it was early in the season and he played in the Biamou position of a deep lying centre forward with that massive gap between him and our back 7. Lots of channel running and coming short for the ball. Never going to get many goals when you're asked to play that role and...

It's an interesting question. I think both would be better paired with a nippier striker around them and perhaps both would look better individually than they did last season with a different striker to McNulty - one of the things I thought McNulty was guilty of was not playing with/off his...

Your old GMK handle would have come in perfectly for this thread! ;)
