It is. Astonishing to think that we have that with Torp injured and Bassette not even in the match day squad. Subject, of course, to his fitness level and the match situation I hope that Haji Wright gets a bit more than just a little cameo. I would like him to come on around the 75 minute mark.

Judging by our current position against South Africa, that will soon be played 18 lost 17.

Of course not but I think a display of mutual respect and affection would be appropriate. MR achieved fantastic things for us in the most difficult of circumstances and for that he deserves to go down in history as a true club legend.

Without that God chap there wouldn’t be a planet Earth. Which means we wouldn’t have had a pitch to play on.

Mark Robins achieved wonders for us in the most difficult of circumstances and in my eyes will always be a club legend. The club, with King at the helm, is no longer in a complete mess. What we need now is someone to take us to the next level and all the signs are that Lampard is the right man...

We haven’t beaten Preston N.E. for more than half an hour. 😆

I expect us all to be speaking fluent Norwegian at the end of the match...

I’m not surprised after that experience but I’m pleased that you are safe 👍

I reckon there are thousands in Stoke and Sheffield. Well, there were when I was there. Would have been about 1987. 😆

Thank you kind sirs for your good wishes. I have to keep going at least for as long as it takes for me to see the Sky Blues play their first season back in the Premier league 😊

I am particularly looking forward to this match now. It is my 70th birthday today and my wife has treated me to a hospitality package for Saturday: posh seats, a meal, drinks and meet a player before and after the game. I have only been treated like this once before. It was in the late 1990s...

We have to give Lampard lots of credit for what he has achieved in three months, despite not having had Wright available to him at all and Sheaf and EMC out for extended periods. We were two points clear of relegation when he arrived and now we are one point away from the playoffs. We will...

Robins is a genuine legend at our club and I wanted him to be given more time to turn things around because I didn’t think that he had suddenly become a bad manager overnight. The axe then fell and Lampard was appointed. I had no particular opinion as to whether he would be good for us or not...

Spot on. We owe him a lot and he deserves our thanks and respect for that. Obviously I still want us to win.

I’m hoping that the last two wins show that maybe Lady Luck is smiling on us at the moment. I really hope so. With such a tight race for the final play-off spots, a little luck can go a long way. 🍀

Were we a tad fortunate today? Probably. Do I care? No!

Signed him today until the end of the season. Seems a reasonable decision. Adds to the experience in the squad and will only cost us his wages.

I don’t think this will be easy. We are away to a team lying two places above us in the table. I predict 1-1. I’m probably reasonably happy with that although, of course, I want us to win. PUSB
