    Dear Boris

    During Boris Johnson's time as Mayor of London, I worked on some projects with him and found him to be: 1. Lazy - he could never be bothered to read briefing notes. 2. Lacking concentration in meetings. 3. Not particularly intelligent. 4. Couldn't cope with detail. 4. Not a collaborative...

    The game has gone. Don't risk Godden now.

    Dear Boris

    I'm just hoping that the government seize Abramovich;s assets.....so, putting Chelsea under government control. That should ensure they'll be playing in L2 in a few years.!

    Derby points deduction

    I've heard that the highest bidder is Mike Ashley, who's only offering 15p in the £1 to non protected creditors. The EFL want a minimum of 25p in the £1. The other bidders for the club do not offer enough money. A 15 point deduction for next season beckons.

    Waghorn

    From the first game of the season he was slow. A striker who’s over the top. He looks as if he’s spent too much time in the weights room doing high reps

    Refereeing

    The referee was the worst this season. He was weak and allowed Preston to assault O’Hare all match.

    Dear SISU, I will have to ask all the Russian donors to the Conservative party if that’s okay. Cheers Boris .... written by Carrie

    Coventry City publish Accounts for Year Ended 31st May 2021

    I'm not so sure. I would guess that they'll take the PL money to realise a return for their investors, which will include some eye watering interest rate returns and try to sell. That way they'll realise their profits and sell at the top of the business cycle. However, would there be a buyer?

    Ryton

    I think you grossly underestimate Robins. He's identifying elements he needs to extract more "marginal gains" including technical, tactical and political elements.

    Ryton

    It sounds to me like MR might have just dropped his guard and voiced one of his frustrations. As for Ryton, it's future is identified for development but only once a suitable alternative has been sourced. There was rumours of the new training ground being sited out near Southam, close to the...

    Any discussions on the match day performance in phone ins should be reserved for people who have BEEN at the match. Secondly, can CWR ban Nick from Brum ......for being Nick from Brum!

    League 1

    Doyle is highly regarded at Man City, so I expect there is a clause in the loan agreement that "if fit...he plays".

    League 1

    Our team from the promotion season would be good enough to win that league again. The one thing that stood out during that season was our style of play versus the "hoof ball" of so many teams. We played a different class of football. One example of that was the Portsmouth game at St.A's when we...

    Bapaga

    It's the same all the way through the development stages. I've lost count of the number of players who "trial" at 9 - 15 years of age at academy level, who get injured during sessions.

    Match Thread Cardiff City (A)

    You're assessment sounds right - the two loans players will have clauses in their contracts regarding playing time, etc. As for the Senior player - he was a gamble transfer given his injury record last season and if he's making a bit of a fuss then MR tends to deal ruthlessly with disruptors...

    Match Thread Cardiff City (A)

    Regarding finances at the club I’m wondering what the accounts will show for last season when they’re submitted to companies house. It might show a significant loss, on top of the FA loan, which is being partly repaid this year. Certainly our business model puts us at a disadvantage to other...
