    Ex Player Watch

    I really liked him when he was here. Good to watch, an exciting player. The managers at Norwich obviously thought so too as they kept playing him in the Championship. Benitez obviously rates him as at 12 million he didn't come cheap. He is making starts for a PL team, something a lot of young...

    Ricoh deal done?

    Better than black and yellow.

    Ricoh deal done?

    I agree that the deal if true is good news. However I would hate having to play in a stadium which is even more branded for Wasps.

    Ricoh deal done?

    If the seat change happens someone needs to stick all 32000 Sky Blue seats In their back garden so we can put them back in again when Wasps are gone. My prediction, based upon nothing but a gut feeling, is that if the deal is for ten years then at some time in that period both Sisu and Wasps...

    Ricoh deal done?

    Can't wait for Fisher to say that it is only temporary and that we are still building our own stadium.

    I agree with this. Yesterday was a case in point and certainly Stevenage on Tuesday. That game was like a match between two pub teams. The quality was really poor. As you say, particularly noticeable in the attacking third.

    Crowd today

    Why would people need to hide their reasons? To go to the football is a choice people make. They don't need to justify why they don't go. I think directly and indirectly Sisu have alienated fans. The fact we are in this league is down to them. At Luton I overheard a conversation between two...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Crawley Town Match Thread - Saturday 25th Nov

    I have never seen the amount of time wasting before that I have seen this season. Football should be about chances, shots and goals. It shouldn't be about watching the physio amble across the pitch simply to frustrate and waste a few more seconds. Football has to be better than that. Crawley...

    Top 8 budget according to Fisher so Robins is over achieving.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Crawley Town Match Thread - Saturday 25th Nov

    Don't think it is justified at any time. I hate it when we do it to. The only way to stamp it out is if referees add all of the time wasted back on. Today's two minutes in the first half and six in the second was no compensation for what Crawley did. First time I have seen that from the physio...

    Fans forum with Mark Robins tonight

    He was very impressive. Good to hear that he isn't a rant and shout merchant at half time but actually talks to the players and advises on how they can improve. I remember watching Peter Reid give his half time team talk in the documentary on Sunderland and thinking it was very similar to lots...

    Jones Injury

    The idea mentioned earlier of playing three at the back with Grimmer and Haynes as wingbacks might be an option. I don't like the wing back system as it always seems to produce sterile performances. However, both Haynes and Grimmer are athletic characters, both can carry the ball and both have a...

    Has he considered resigning Frank Moussa considering our lack of creativity, particularly with Andreu' s injury.

    Blackpool FC up for sale

    While agreeing that the Oystons seem completely despicable people, when they leave Blackpool the club's infrastructure will still be in place. When Sisu go it is probable we will have no ground, no training ground and no academy. All things they are responsible for losing and major areas for new...

    You could be right! Might have got the two transfers mixed up.

    Jose Perdomo was on loan for a few games and really looked the part. I remember him playing at Villa Park and running the show.
