    The daft thing about that is the way we want Baka to play in a real match (flattening defenders/physicality) is the opposite of what MR would want anyone to do to our defenders in training) I know it's not as simple as that, and maybe his body language / whatever has been bad, but the thing he...

    bakayoko

    Joking aside, it is weird how over a very short space of time Max seems to have leapfrogged Baka, when all earlier indications were that Baka was 3rd choice. I'll shortly swap my avatar now that Max is back in the fold, and to annoy he who must not be named.

    Things that annoy you

    The disproportionate 'fuss' around Christmas Day this year in relation to the pandemic. I can't understand why there is such a clamour for one day (and I'm no Grinch, honest!) to be 'saved' in relation to helping stop this bloody awful virus. I get that it is an important family...

    Another terror attack in Europe.

    Agreed re: Vienna. Great place. Spent second week of my honeymoon there and have been back for a week since. One of the safest cities you'll ever visit - walking around after midnight, and took me a while to get used to not having to look over your shoulder every couple of minutes. Only takes a...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Don't care if this is slightly off topic, but whilst everybody is going through this crap, I just received a call from my bank (guffaw) asking me to confirm authorisation of a payment. He started with a 'as you know your bank would never call you' at which point I lost my usual sarcastic tone...

    Geoff foster

    Geoff Foster played a one off as goalkeeper for our team about 15 years ago (won 8-0 iirc!). He was more of a rugby fan (pre-Wasps) but as others have said, a cracking bloke. Happy retirement Geoff. (used to knock about with Adam Dent a bit,; whatever happened to him? - Wolves fan!)

    Brum Game moved to Friday on Sky

    To be honest, I've had CWR commentary on a lot of the time, and I've found myself waiting for Oggy to correct Clive when he's called out the wrong City player who has just headed wide from a corner etc etc. I'm just left feeling mildly amused (in between the match nerves) Looking forward to the...

    Just got off the phone to my godmother whose 21 year old grandson is just about to be released from Warwick Hospital. Has been in intensive care, scarred lungs, can manage a few steps before being completely knackered. No underlying health conditions. Just in case anybody reading thinks they are...

    Anything above 6 I would happily take. I'd donate another £20 to the ST fund if you could guarantee us 9. On paper, Watford and Norwich look tough, but the others we should give a run for their money.

    Loan Watch

    Eccles and Drysdale playing in a struggling Gillingham team with a manager like Evans ! It will toughen them up no end, or destroy them. Hopefully a great lesson for them and it does the former rather than the latter.

    My first reaction too. Means that it should be easier to have the 'stop picking up silly yellow cards' discussion!

    Biamou still has lots to offer

    There's nothing wrong with that - long old season and it may be that if it's a 2 up front it will be a Max or Baka with a Godden or Walker, depending on fitness, injury etc. Having different options is a good thing. We don't know if Godden and Walker can play together effectively yet, and with 2...

    5 yellow cards marks

    Not sure about the red bit, but agree with the rest - I thought the ref had been lenient with him regarding persistent fouling. He is a real asset to the team overall. but he needs a Michael Doyle style of discipline to play the way he does and will find himself regularly hooked by MR after...

    Walker will be desperate to turn out against Forest, you would have thought.

    Forest are a good team. Let's just enjoy this one. Hamer will be a happier bunny having been subbed, but we still got the win.
