It was rumoured, at that time, that Spurs were searching for a striker called 'Head' so that their forward line would read Onomah-Head-Son

Blimey. Don't tell me that there are 2 mathematicians who support the Sky Blues. The difference, as I'm sure you realise, relates to continuity. I think we'd better stop this now.

Geometric actually - 2, 4, 8, 16 and so on. And let's be clear; a double-barrelled name used to mean 'posh' but it now means 'child of unmarried parents' (nothing to do with 'splitting up'). End of Fact Check.

No, we are a team of superduperstars

14 points worse off

'I love what Robins has done with that Cov team. No superstars, no egos - and they play good football to boot.' 'give Coventry a lot of credit. Best I have seen from a side against us at this level for a long time' 'supremely coached, well-drilled teams like Cov.'

and that's how it was reported on Sky

Maybe this has been covered on some other thread but, in the context of next season, I'm surprised that someone hasn't mentioned the dramatic decline in our home form. Simply put, we gained more points from our opening 6 home games than we have from the subsequent 17. Whatever the cause, this...

.....who's a Fulham fan, points out to me that 20% of the goals that Fulham have conceded this season have been against us. Nice one.

I was there in 1956 to see Steve 'Kalamazoo' Mokone make his debut. My Uncle Doug, famed for his insights, said that 'he looked as though he could do with a bloody good hot meal'.

The one with the Wegerle tale......

Only 7 teams in the league have scored more goals than us. But only 7 teams have conceded more goals than us. And yet, I have this perception of us as a team who struggle to score but are pretty tight at the back. Is it only me?

I can't be bothered to read through this entire thread, so apologies if someone has already made this point, but the diameter of a football is about 9 inches so for the entire ball to be over the entire line the base of the ball has to be over 4 and a half inches over the entire line. This is...

True, but in that same time we've only lost to 2 of the better teams (QPR and Middlesbrough) and both times by the odd goal, with commendable draws at Blackburn, Sheffield United, Bournemouth and Huddersfield. 'Good season, nice progress' - have to agree

As Mark Robbins replenishes his squad, he'll be thinking about players who could cope with Premier League football. The players being discussed here are struggling to get into Championship sides, so the best they would be is short-term stopgaps.

Players respond, or not, to management styles and coaching. There are countless examples of players who did well with one club but not with another. Thanks goodness we have a good manager and good coaching. Long may it continue.
