Perhaps forgetting who the manager was who signed Leon Clarke and McNulty for free. As that was by far and away McNulty's most prolific season, the manager takes no credit for that? I think some people need to take their blinkers off.

Not saying it was better. Just pointing out the things that irritate now. They outlawed the back pass and with a bit of ingenuity and the will to do it, all of the timewasting that goes on could be got rid of too.

Lincoln, Swindon last season?

This is me being curmudgeonly and old, but in1967 Bobby Gould, a Coventry born player scored a hat trick in the First Division against Burnley (I was there) which to my old fashioned mind means that Callum is just another Coventry born player to score a hat trick in the top flight. The idea...

I think you should be ashamed of yourself.

You didn’t see Max’ overhead kicks, his first against Yeovil or his winner at MK?

I was really impressed with JCH yesterday. His best performance by far in Sky Blue. I have not been his biggest fan and after last season was hoping that he wouldn’t be signed. However, since he has got into the team this season I think he has played well with yesterday being by far the best. He...

Is that an attempt at humour? I think anyone making a comment like this one, in what is a debate about the merits of a footballer, needs to take a look at themselves.

I think Bakayoko was written off by some before he played a match.

I don’t think Shipley has performed well this season, he wouldn’t be a particular favourite player of mine. However, I don’t think he deserves the stick he is being given. I think he always gives 100% and the fact that he is willing to run all day for the team is a positive not a negative thing...

Best fans I think were Celtic. To have 6000 there for what was essentially a friendly on a Tuesday night and to make the noise they did I thought was great support.

I think Doyle is still playing well. A mis placed pass lead to the goal, one or two free kicks went astray but overall I thought he was good.

They seem to have the same intolerant view that you have. A player has to be instantly good, now, no time to develop, play well now or be left out. Young players need to be given time to reach their potential. Shipley showed enough last season to show that there is a player in there. Applying...

Recent performances include scoring and then winning the penalty ar Oxford. The people who sit in the seats behind us are non stop on at Shipley from the first minute to the last. No recognition that he hasn’t played a full season in men’s football yet and is still a young player.

Yes they do, which is the point really. You are right, it is almost every time we lose. He is clueless, he is tactically inept,he makes the wrong substitutions, he makes them at the wrong time, he is inflexible, he is out thought by other managers on a weekly basis. He is also the manager with...

Regularly over the past two seasons there have been callers to 606 saying he wasn’t good enough, didn’t know what he was doing. Much the same as a group on here say about Robins every time we lose a game.

Interesting that up until last season some of their fans were agitating for a change of manager. Regular feature with mouthy types, usually not from Liverpool who thought Klopp was 'tactically inept'.

He is a loan player at the moment until January. I am surprised Portsmouth didn’t put in a clause but glad they didn’t. I can see why a loan player playing against his parent club does have a conflict of interest. (Not in this case as Chaplin will be signing permenantly in January).

Our goal came in the last minute of the first half.It was a free kick given when Chaplin was brought down. That was the final act in a move that went on for thirty or forty passes of slick one touch football. No hoof ball there.

Hopefully the board at Burnley will ignore them. Burnley obviously have similar fans to those of ours who write on the match day thread, ones with superior football knowledge.
