    Ben Sheaf

    The reason Wharton went for more than we could get for Sheaf wasn't because he is 'currently' better, but purely because of his potential. Was the same reason Alex Scott cost a lot more last Summer than we received for Hamer, even though Hamer was a much more effective Championship player at...

    First half he did really well to get back and challenge Seargeant when it looked like he had worked himself a free shot at goal.

    For the sending off I'm not even sure Sargeant would have reached the ball before the keeper if he hadn't been challenged by Kitching. Split decision thinking on Kitchen's part though and there's no way he could have been sure of that.

    Bedwetters guide to Summer 2024 departures

    What we don't want is much interest in the better players we need to stay in order for us to give it a good go next season. Keeping the likes of Sheaf, Van Ewijk & Sakamoto will be crucial.

    Championship thread 23/24

    We have a chance of play offs of course, but for the likely 2 places up for grabs so do West Brom, Norwich, Hull, Sunderland and Middlesbrough. While Watford and Preston are close enough points wise I don't think either have enough to make it. For the rest of us it will probably come down to the...

    We're in Safe Hands

    The location would also be fine if street parking were allowed like it was at HR. The CBS is far more accessible than if 25,000 were descending on Warwick University!

    Match Thread Norwich City - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 3rd Feb

    If MR doesn't want to start with Torp just yet I would prefer Kelly over Lati in midfield. While Lati can undoubtedly do a defensive job in midfield, he is fairly limited in terms of being an attacking option. Kelly's performances when he came in for Sheaf after he got injured at the end of last...

    Perhaps when we play at Blackburn Fadz will treat us to a Mo Konjic type performance, from when he played for Derby against us :)

    I agree with you as this being why Torp wasn't brought on at that point. Bringing on Allen instead of Lati would have shown more positive intent, and is what I felt MR should have done, given we were at home and trying to play on the front foot. If we had been away to Southampton or Leeds and...

    Applause on 87 min Tonight: CBS Architect and City Fan Geoff Mann Dies

    First time I've seen one of those minute's applause coincide with a goal. Often wondered how it would work out. In a way a goal for us makes it a most apt celebration, but not so sure about if we concede, as its unlikely people will continue to applaud.

    Debuts

    Seem to remember Marcus Hall having a terrific game in a televised match at HR (Man U maybe). It was the first time I'd seen him, but not sure if it was his actual debut.

    Debuts

    Stuart Pearce - can't remember who the QPR winger was, but within the first few minutes Pearce had taken the man and ball in what was deemed a fair tackle in those days, dumping him into the first few rows in the Sky Blue Stand. The winger unsurprisingly didn't contribute anything for the...

    FA Cup draw

    Agreed on Man City, but I'm pretty sure they would rather play at the CBS or Hillsborough than Kenilworth Road.

    Robins on 5 Live

    The difference between the sales of Gyokores and Hamer, was that clearly right from the off Gyokores had set his sights on moving to Lisbon. That posed a few problems for DK who I'm sure would have liked a bidding war with a few PL clubs to increase his transfer fee. Fair do's to DK though, as...

    Transfer targets

    For arguments sake what happens in that scenario if he gets injured and isn't available to play 15 games? From what you have said we would then have to pay £1m & 75% of his wages!

    FA cup replay

    Penalties is the only scenario where I could possibly see Wednesday beating us, probably after they have parked the bus and our forwards misfire. Is the replay straight to penalties after 90 minutes, or is there extra time first?

    Cup draw

    Its a nice change not to see the usual 'shit draw' comments. I imagine there's plenty from Maidstone thinking that though!
