    Meeting with Joy Seppala & Dave Boddy - Thursday 27th February 2020

    I must say that I am delighted that the meeting took place and even more impressed that this post is the first we knew about it. I get the sense that the meeting represented the views discussed on this forum rather than Pete or Mark's views and that is how it should be. I enjoy your posts Smmeee...

    Enjoy it

    And that's the problem with football, we can't really let go of the worry that it is still possible to fall away so we don't savour these times. If we go up it will be momentarily glory then preparing ourselves for a hard season ahead in the championship.

    League one Friday/Saturday

    I am sure you are all aware that there are plenty of games to go and nothing will be decided this weekend, win lose or draw. Sure a win will be fantastic but there WILL be twists and turns over the next two months. What bodes well for us is that we have got this far with three defeats and by...

    Ryan Giles

    Of course Robins has his favorites,they are the ones that deliver. If not, he chooses an alternative which is why we have a squad. What did Giles deliver on Tuesday that puts him in the side? We will see if Robins selects him tomorrow. In the eyes of some once he signed for Norwich McCallum was...

    Agreed. I would give Kelly some sleeping tablets, massage him like Wagyu Beef whilst he is sleeping and wake him up @ 1130 on Sunday in his full kit and boots on with the instructions to run the show.

    Sunderland fans crying "again"

    What surprises me is that there has been the Bennett/Speedie incident, the Froggatt/Summerbee incident and the countless games to wet the appetite but I didn't sense a rivalry during that time or even bitterness. Whatever set of circumstances happened on that 77 night the fact is Sunderland lost...

    What are Rotherham thinking

    Rotherham reminded me of Accrington in their league 2 winning year. The sum of the parts were greater than the individuals and you can see why they would be a yo yo side. That said in the first half an hour I felt that we hadn't started and they were turning the screw without looking too...

    Wilbrahim at Rochdale, when he came on, and Smith last night were both huge centre forwards who disrupt and harry the defenders and create second balls for others to run on to. A different set of problems for our back three. Rotherham's midfield were strong runners and technically adept so you...

    The Best Thing About St Andrews

    Equal opportunities employer I see! I must admit I enjoyed that game even though we lost. A throwback game, a real edge and if ever a one on one was needed it was that night and our little fella obliged!!!

    What are Rotherham thinking

    So what you are saying is that we could win, could lose or could most likely draw? I can see how you could come to that conclusion.

    Fans who just stay in the bar.....

    I am not a drinker and my match day experience is not enhanced/tainted by the bonhomie of a bar. I have been to the Roost on a couple of occasions and found it a positive vibe far removed from the Coventry match day scene. What I don't understand is why you would go to a football match to stay...
