    CBS tenancy

    Perhaps I got the company they own wrong, but definately read an article saying they were really remiss in paying suppliers and treating other parties rather poorly. I stand by my comment that I don't think they will do us any great favours, or I think the matter would have been settled by now...

    Head of Recruitment Chris Badlan and Chief Scout Stuart Benthom have left the Club.

    I think there is a recruitment committee where the recruitment team recommend players and all interested parties make a decision. I would imagine, Robin has the main say, although Adi obviously is a big influence with his previous Chelsea involvement.

    Gyokores better than Akpom

    Vik heading is pretty poor for his size. Perhaps he has read the dementia stats from Sweden how outfield players are at serious risk from dementia in later life. Think both of them will play in the Prem or a top league abroad. Vik struggles against top centre halves at present and destroys...

    Fair play to Stoke every one of their players looked awesome yesterday. That happens sometime in football. If they had their current manager at the start of the season, I think they would go up and will be a good bet for next year. However, we had three of our attacking midfielders injured and...

    Course not, he only worked for the club for years before his unfortunate death and was very careful with his disclosures. I would take his word 100% and never doubt his integrity over speculation that is repeated from that brilliant source of information, namely, social media. If someone can...

    I agree our set pieces are dreadful and totally predictable. Hamer doing an inswinger on a dodgy goalie I get, the corner to the back post centre back ok, but where is the invention and the unexpected pass. Last I can think of a different tactic is pass and goal by Shippers last season

    Lot of after the event information or fake news going on here. When Dublin signed his contract, every one told Richardson he was mad for paying that amount of money. Jim Twyneham was a mate and he told me the club were unhappy with the way Dublin refused to play while they were trying to sort...

    The only problem I have with Dublin is that he refused to play before he left. Don't know if the rest about Richardson is true. Seem to remember he wanted to move before the revisionism kicked in

    Gyo voted best player in EFL

    Realistically, if we don't go up, I feel Vik will go. He is, and has been voted by his peers the best player in the Championship. The wages he could get added to a life changing signing on fee will be too much for us to compete. Looking at the Brentford model, we need to replace him with players...

    Coventry Strikers

    Agree, on the top of their game, the best players we have had in their respective positions. Feel West Brom had the best of Regis before he went off the rails and Blackburn the best of Gallacher. Fortunately for us, Regis regained form after he cut out the night clubbing but sadly was never...

    Yes I do. Before then used to pop in for an Irish Coffee as a last drink. Can't seem to get them anymore where you drank the coffee and spirit through the cream

    CBS tenancy

    The only concern I have is that Frasers play hardball in their negotiations. I read they have not paid money to suppliers when JD Sports was taken over and they hold out for reduced council tax on other retail outlets. Don't think they will do us any favours

    Really tough match this one. They are one of the form teams at the moment beat Sunderland away 5-1 and got a draw at Middlesborough. We will really have to be on top of our game to win this especially if our internationals come back knackered. Unsure how many players they had away on...

    Contracts 2025/26

    Absolutely. Saw Mickey Gynn a few years back delivering letters and Ernie Hunt window cleaning. Perhaps Ernie's alleged match fixing wasn't that good. Really unfair how little they got out of the game. Mediocre talents now become multi-millionaires.
