Thanks! We’ve tended to link in looking around with going back for city games. However, think we’re planning a couple of visits quite soon. As an aside, it’s interesting for me to see how the city has changed, a lot more buildings going up. What’sbeing built opposite the town hall…the building...

Yeah, that’s my experiences…first time we really liked it. It felt busy, with loads of things going on…then not so much! We’d assumed it was just ‘dying a death’ but will try and time things better. Good to hear as it was good that first time.

Right you are. Often stay in Earlsdon/Spon End which is where I’m from and end up in a curry house…would be nice to try some new places!

Popped along last weekend, for the first time in over 35 years. It’s good…even with a hangover. Slowly taking Mrs D to Cov cultural hotspots. Last time the cathedrals; next up the Motor Museum. Been to the Fargo Village a few times - it never seems to be open! Any furthers suggestions and...

They’re going to implode one day right?

I remember seeing them up at HR, they beat us…possibly 0-2. I remember being impressed just how big they were. Lawrie Sanchez, Fashanu and co absolutely bullied us and looked decent as well. Despite their ‘rough-housing’ They used to produce/have a lot of good players…wise, Fashanu, scales...

Oooh hark at marathon man! I was thinking the same as I typed but thought it too early in the morning!

Does the ‘6 second rule’ still exist?

Tbf at the time That Wimbledon side was probably more successful than us too. They had some horrible bastards but some of them could play a bit…some of them could play a lot.

Yes.

Well, given what other players have gone for I think youre undervaluing just how much prem teams/teams receiving parachute payments will pay for players. Jordan Hugill went to West Ham for a reported £10 mil. £6-£8mil would put Vik in the same transfer bracket as Gary Madine to Cardiff.

You might be right but we’ve seen the fees that prem clubs are willing to pay for players. For me Vik is our biggest asset in terms of fee.

I’d say it’s not unreasonable, different style of player obviously but don’t strikers tend to go for more? I hadn’t thought about a sell on clause. I’ve not heard anything reported at the time we signed him?

I think £10 mil would be robbery. We’ve got to be holding out for £20 mil + .

I think Wilson had to go for it. If he stayed on his line the Huddersfield lad would’ve had a free, relatively easy, chance on goal. I was impressed how quick a couple of their players were.

I thought Wilson had a good game and that he was unlucky with the pen…had to go for it. Defender didn’t need to get a touch on the cross, which forced Wilson into the initial save. Generally we looked alright at times. 1st half was better than the second. Think the TV said that Huddersfield...

Their worst signing was FLampard. I imagine he’s on a fair old whack too.

Yeah, I’m struggling to think of anyone either from us…Eccles is about the only one. While he hasn’t had the chance to ‘kick on’ (I hate that expression) I genuinely think he’s going to be great for us. I think generally for others it’s more than just a shop window. Over the years some great...

I think he looked ok in the prem when Cardiff were there, and fans expected him to ‘kick on’ in the championship. Apart from a few games when McCarthy took over, hasn’t done anything or looked good at all. The Cardiff fans, in my vicinity at least, can’t wait for him to be gone. Quite the fall...

Didn’t he start looking like a world beater for a couple of games? Then went back to looking like a panel beater.
