    I’ve been saying not to put O’Hare in the middle 3 (I wanted him in the forward 3) but I was so wrong. He was great in there. His touch is fabric. Mcfadz 8 O’Hare 7.5 Mason 7.5 Shipley 7.5 The rest 7’s

    I really don’t get this “maverick” and “look out, he’s craaazy” tag. It started after his red card which came because of a mistimed tackle and an attempted block that carried him into a player because of a greasy pitch. Should have scored on Saturday and did little else after he came on but we...

    St Andrews car share

    I will be without my car tomorrow night. Anyone driving from Balsall Common and would be kind enough to let me jump in? DM if you’re happy to. Failing that, what is the best station to jump off at on train?

    O’Hare

    The first game we lose, he’ll start the one after. You can see he is a great player but while we’re winning at home and drawing away... robins won’t change it, unless forced. (Cue him starting tomorrow now)

    O’Hare

    If we were playing 4 in the middle then I’d be happy but my gut feeling (admittedly based on limited match time) is that he isn’t the type of midfielder for a 3. We need a playmaker (Kelly / Walsh) and two endurance runners either side. I’d rather see him buzzing about in the final 3rd and not...

    Top of the league

    We could in theory be overtaken by 5 teams still (I haven’t checked their fixtures so if they’re playing each other then obviously they can’t both overtake etc) but as they say, I’d rather have the points on the board as we have

    O’Hare

    For me he has to be in the front 3. Leave the midfield 3 as they are.

    Top of the league

    I expected us to be mid table this season so I’m surprised and delighted. I must be very pessimistic as we’re sitting top of the league but I still just don’t think of us as autos challengers. If we can make it into the play offs that would be a fantastic achievement

    We didn’t play with our usual dictating style today but most would’ve taken a draw which I think was a fair result. Marosi 8 Full backs 7 Center backs 8 Westbrooke 7 Shipley 6.5 Walsh 6.5 Hiwula 5 Jobello 5 Godden 7 O’hare 8 Kastaneer 6

    Match Thread Burton Albion vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 14th Sep

    You’re mental. He’s been my man of the half. I think maybe he needs to dye his hair bleach blonde or something. He’s been everywhere. Some great forward passes. Broken up play about 4-5 times and hit the post from 30 yards. Are you actually watching it? Hiwula has been quiet though, I’ll agree.

    I’m a fan. He’s done an admirable job as a stand in 18 year old. He does always look knackered off the ball though

    The midfield 3 have been unbelievable. Surely can’t maintain this work rate / pace... they’ve been everywhere

    Is anyone else scared of losing Robins?

    Genuinely is (just checked).. the next longest serving was Chris Coleman (or did it just feel like that) but he only actually did one full season from start to finish.

    Greg Abbot - What a write up

    “Down to the left back (Sam McCallum) who I thought was outstanding”. To be fair though, he’s only had a career in football all his life. He doesn’t know as much as the blokes that work at JLR and the like on here

    Rose, Mcfazdean, Hyam

    That’s kind of the point though is that you want them to press higher up so there is space in behind. It’s risk / reward stuff but whilst the pitches are good it is higher reward than risk.
