    Why our start is so important

    Personally I think that comparing like for like games, as has been done elsewhere, indicates we are on course for a half way in the table position, just in the upper half. A distinct and measurable advance and a successful season, as per Luton and Barnsley last year. And before you shout 'But...

    I reckon our goalkeeper will save a penalty when the score is still 0-0, our topscorer will then chip the goalie from way out. We will be thee up at half time and win 4-1....Well its happened before. PS that penalty save always made me a bit more sympathetic to Burge than most. Actually I'd...

    Isn't that how all clubs should be run. Within their means with a small return to the investors?

    To think that this time last year he could not get a game at Swansea, and he did not really impress in his first few games here. But clearly in training Robins saw the potential, and he has blossomed.

    U23 v Millwall

    That means diddly squat if it doesn't produce players for the club. I 'd rather have a couple of good players than any seal ofapproval from the EFL. But they haven't produced any players have they

    U23 v Millwall

    No player has come through the Youth Programme to be a regular first team pick since we were in League 2. December of that season, so it is pushing four years. So no we don't have a good record at all for regularly producing talent. And neither of the last two - Bayliss and Shipley - appear to...

    Journo on Talksport watched Cardiff get off the team bus at Forest, and noticed how big the whole team was. Very intimidating. Also said that Giles was 'on fire' We are a small team in comparison - not sure if that is good or bad Cardiff won at Forest. To away wins on the bounce is relatively...

    Until Robins got us promoted from L2, he had not had promotion with any of his clubs I believe. perhaps he should have retired

    I rate Warnock. Continually gets teams promoted. Boro were going nowhere until he came in.

    On the other hand, he did once manage to scoop it over the bar while he had one hand almost on the goalpost. Not the best with his feet was our Tone. Mark was a definite upgrade in that respect. Best header of a ball has to be Mick Fergusson

    Bright and Robins

    For the avoidance of doubt: Never wanted him back - for all his obvious skill he was too disruptive to any structure Robins may impose. Did his own thing rather than fit with the team. Now the evidence is mounting that he is disruptive internally as well. Hope he never comes back

    Maquire-Drew definetely did one good thing. Plonk a corner on Tom Davies's head for Jordan Willis to get the knock back - Stoke in the Cup.

    Unlikley, but what do I know. But if it were true, it would be good business - a 33% profit on 2+ years. League 1 is his optimum level, and it looks like he is 3rd choice with a manager who prefers one up front much of the time. There is no case for keeping your third choice striker if that...

    I seem to remember Kevin Kyle scoring a late winner at QPR one tuesday evening (under Coleman I think). Good goal.

    Now that he is back, I still see and hear nothing to change my mind that he will never be a regular city player. In our despration to include him, he is being put in line for a position in the team that I suspect he is mentally and physically not suited for. Both he and Bright are in different...
