    Today’s games

    Safely mid-table. Half-empties worrying we're only three point above the drop zone. Hall-fulls reckoning were only one 5-0 victory off the top spot! To be fair, there are 44 more games to go... Come on the Old Five!

    Match Thread Coventry City vs QPR

    Great pattern to get three points from two games. Do that all season and we end up on a comfortable 69 points. Go unbeaten all season by drawing every game and we finish with 46 points and possible relegation.

    Yes, I think you're right. And Mick Kearns (who I nominated unsuccessfully for BBC sports personality of the year one year - still sore he didn't get it!) is standing diametrically opposite them.

    I think it was made couple of weeks into 1962 (early January dates are on the letters brought into JH's office). Mike Dixon was the centre forward that JH wanted to be on the receiving end of the long ball out of defence from the right back. I've been looking online for information about him...

    Player Ratings v Bristol

    True. It was the first minute that lost us a point, Never mind the other 22 mins. And I thought Kelly was playing well.

    How many points for safety?

    Based on Bristol City supporters' assessments, we don't need to be too worried about relegation: ______________________________________________ Very pleased with the win and especially for Dean Holden. This was a potential banana skin with Coventry coming up and being on a roll. I thought they...

    Anyway, couldn't we get Burge back for not much more? ;-)

    Match Thread Bristol City V Coventry City

    Hope they're playing Alf Bentley in goal. I wondered what had happened to him. Thought he'd died about 25 years ago, but if he plays a full season for Bristol City, he may reach 90 just before they're relegated! ;-)

    It gets worse. Even after winning 27 games on the trot, "It was later confirmed that the Combined Counties League had been abandoned with all results null and voided".

    Would 1 more promotion sort the club out completely?

    Match Thread Southampton friendly Tuesday

    And also it's about whether you are playing a lump it up to an old-fashioned No 9 type game - or a traditional one with wingers crossing it from the by-line so the advancing centre-forward can re-bound it past the keeper from his (slowly dementing but apparently concrete) head - or whether you...

    20 goals from Max, one headed (No 1) and one other (No. 7) could have been headed. Instead Max scored with an overhead. Much the best in the circumstances. Playing to Max's strengths. In the build up to another of his goals, Max uses a finely weighted header to a colleague and scores from...

    Favourite current player ....

    O'Hare. Because I watched the games streamed on Saturday. Also, because he's a great individual talent, but first and foremost a brilliant team player.
