Always a difficult place to win, the 4-1 under Mowbray being the exception (still my favourite away day - included a Burge penalty save at 0-0) I'd take a draw, but would feel a little disappointed as unlike last season I don't think there is one team in the division where I think that we can't...

"opportunity" is clearly a euphemism for cock up by one of K & T. There is clearly a divide in every squad outside the Prem between regular starters and cover. We all know the favoured 1st eleven. We all know that Wilson, BTA, Lati, Bidwell are cover. Eccles is in-between, but is anybody else...

I still suspect we might need better than we have in central defence. Wolfenden may be the answer, but he looks like cover. (I know have just had two clean sheets, but let's not get ahead of ourselves). As per elsewhere I would like someone better than Saka on the right, with Saka as cover...

The point about Da Silva is, does anybody really in their heart of hearts think he's a Championship top 6 defender and the thought of him in the Prem is just hilarious. He has always had fantastic close control with the ball , and this catches the eye of the spectators. But he is not even a...

Better than being complacent. There are always negatives. Always. Dealing with negatives when you win is probably the most important thing of all. In the end Saka is a one trick pony. He never goes to the line, he always cuts back. Defenders aren't stupid. Just because he's from the far east...

2025 'A' Level question in Football management Discuss the relative importance of new signings against continuity with reference to Coventry City being 2nd in the Championship with not one new player in the outfield first XI?

Obviously good all round. Top marks for: Torp - lot's of good stuff in the middle; MVE (altho why did he not chance a shot with his left?); Grimes and Kitching For all his good showing is Da Silva a long term solution? Brum were poor at exposing his defensive weakness. Poorest: Wright. May...

25 in the 66-67 promotion season

This game last year told me three things. One, Robins appearred to losing control of the situation, two 4-4-2 is too inflexible for the modern game and three, Bassette was not up to it (he came on as a sub iirc) - see other thread. We rarely do well against this lot, sadly. Despite being...

Some players you just know from almost the first kick don't have the brains for top level football. And it is about brains - positional awareness, sense of how the game was flowing - Ryan Howley was one of these. Perfectly good on the ball but never quite in the right place at the right time...

You mean the 50+ fans on here...

Poor communication is the usual euphemism for "I didn't get what I want". And anyway they are under no obligation to share such commercially sensitive information with the paying customers. in no other sector would you do that. We are not shareholders

...and BTA's superb game against QPR?

If it is either Rapha or Bidwell this has been a superb window for clearing out deadwood, much as I like Jake.

Nick's ad revenue going through the roof. He needs Andy Turner to drop hints like this regularly

We are going to be rolling in cash...on September 2nd, just in time for the January window

Same team, and similar score in that we will concede one. How many for us? 2 or 3.

suspect Simms will end up in League 1 and be quite happy there

Crawley is easier to comprehend that Oldskyblue58...just

Am i adding 2+2 to make 5 but, is there a post on here to say DK has said new money needs to come in if we are to afford acquisitions who are above the usual budget, and in addition earlier in the summer did not the club sell some shares for which one explanation was we had a new investor ?
