Agreed. He made space for other players and worked incredibly hard. He was also really tough. I remember him having a really bad injury and because we had used our one substitute he stayed on although he was hopping about on one leg.....and then scored the winning goal with a header. I can't...

Agreed, but I hope that fans cut Ponti some slack, if his form dips. As he's a young player who's bound to have a time when things don;t go right or if he's burned out. I remember us sending Gary Gillespie back home to Scotland in March and missing the end of season matches. That was during his...

Dion was an awesome player for us. Not just for his contribution on the pitch, but he was/is a natural leader. I have no doubts that without Phil Neale signing him with some of the money from the Phil Babb deal we would have been relegated far sooner. As for centre forwards he's up there with...

It's SISU's attempt at a job creation scheme for barristers! We've got to keep them earning fees to support their Bentleys, etc.

I welcome the fact that there are still people still interested in our club, especially given our current status. However, I cannot see SISU relinquishing control until they've totally exhausted the litigation route, as that IMO that is the focus of their current strategy to recoup funds...

It'll be the barrister representing SISU who's made millions and now wants to provide a philanthropic boost to the club out of guilt!

Spot on Old Sky Blue. I can remember games at Highfield Road with 14,000 in the crowd and a very flat atmosphere. However, the good days of seeing us make the "great escapes" like beating Man Utd at home 2-0 with Curtis & Blockley dominating their forward line was magical! I'm not sure if I've...

The date for the appeal is now published. Oh good - we can stop concentrating on the team winning games!!

Kiss of death. Please don't give it to him.

Too early to speculate. Can we bin this thread until the end of March please? If we're in the mix for promotion at that point......we can start projecting results to the end of season to see if we can get out of this pub league!

We're benefitting from early recruitment and MR having most of the squad in place for pre-season. If we can avoid disrupting the team by too much change & obviously injuries will be a big factor on whether we need to trade in January. Fingers crossed that we only need to add the odd player in a...

I concur the following things from this latest decision: 1. The granting of an appeal has been made by the judge on the belief that there is evidence for this matter to be revisited. It's unusual for a judge to take an opposing view to a previous ruling without new evidence. 2. The timeline for...

Not a sending off for me, as there was another defender inline and could have covered. The concerning thing yesterday was our weakness in defending crosses.

From my perspective the worst managers have to be: Slade Reid Bothroyd Butcher All of them brought neanderthal level of football to the club The best Jimmy Hill, Gordon Milne, Sexton, Sillett & Black In contract the best were intelligent managers.

Success? When did that happen, surely not since 1987

Good performance from our lads. Once we were one nil up our game management was excellent, we slowed down their free kicks our keeper runs away from the goal kick to have a "chat" with the defence, then took his time finding the ball.

I'd keep him, as with the good coach MR provides he will only get better. Unless someone offers a really big sum for him. We need a stable back 4 to get out this league.

Agreed, but we need to keep a stable back 4 in front of him, so they can build up a good understanding . Something we never did last season.

At the 6th round FA cup match at Wolves, where Dougan and Richards ran amok there was a long edition of "knees up mother brown"...

Back in the 70s when we were winning I remember us singing.... "Hutch on the wing and Stein in the middle ... that's why Covs, etc"
