    Some perspective please (for the bedwetters)

    Are you Boosh or Greggs?

    Some perspective please (for the bedwetters)

    You say they've been a feature of Robins tenure. To be fair, every team goes through bad runs. Even the top teams. The difference is that we're less knee-jerky (as a club) than many and this run at the end of the season has curtailed our PO aspirtions. We could easily have had a crap Xmas...

    I use Starling for business banking. Easy to use with a great app.

    This has got defeat written all over it. Poor form, injuries, suspensions, fatigue, opposition chasing auto promotion etc etc. 2-1 City.

    I can't believe he's got 3 reds this season. That's shocking. We don't pay him to rack up fines and suspensions.

    Match Thread Blackburn Rovers - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 27th Apr

    In terms of momentum, 7 defeats in 8 (if that's what it ends up being) won't have any impact on the start of next season. It'll be a couple of months later, lots will have happened and it'll have quickly been forgotten. Bar Luton, we had a great end to last season and that momentum didn't...

    Arguably we're still in a better position as a club as a whole, even if the league position isn't vastly different. The foundations are in place. Or certainly a lot more solid than they once were.

    I guess I was thinking more of EPL teams but yeah, you're right. That said, how long do parachute payments last - 3 seasons? That means, there's potentially 9 teams in the Championship still bringing in millions and likely spending to get back to 'the promised land'. I can't be arsed to look...

    I didn't see the match last night to be fair but the point stands - it was his first league outing in a couple of months. He was obviously going to be off the pace. Whether he was fit enough to play I guess was up to MR. We're obviously light on numbers given the squad size and the weekends...

    Don't disagree with any of that. But it's easy for people to think that the transfer fees received are the only revenue stream we have that's used to cover running costs and transfer fees. As mentioned earlier, we've also got TV money, prize money, ST money, ticket revenue, merch sales...

    Correct. But the majority of clubs lose money each year. Doesn't stop them opening the cheque book.

    I guess we'll see come the summer. I'm excited for that and next season.

    One of the most important signings for next season needs to be a decent replacement for Dennis Lawrence as well.

    Because I've heard it from a couple of sources. One of which I'm sure was one of his interviews...can't remember which one to be fair.

    Doug on CWR

    I don't the exact details but I'm pretty sure he's spent some of his own money. If the Hamer fee was going on running costs etc, then what has the ST money, merch sales, sponsorship, TV revenue etc been spent on. I'm fairly confident that we'll have money to spend this summer, even if Vik...

    To be fair, that was his first league game for what, a couple of months? He's not going to be automatic first choice but when we're crying out for depth, I'd definitely keep Allen next season.

    Doug on CWR

    I'm not listening but I know he's invested in some of the off field stuff like the training ground. And if we're making money from transfers, let's use that. We're trying to be self-sustaining after all. We need the balance don't we - investment into the playing squad (ideally solely through...

    Ellis Simms

    We're so lucky that we've got two great attacking players capable of 20 goals a season. For years we've been crying out for just one. We then had Gyo and after losing him, we now have two. It really is such an important aspect of our season next season, Simms and Wright firing on all cylinders...

    Equally, we've lost 3 out of the last 4 games that O'Hare has started.
