    Nimmmeeelllyyy!!

    I can see that, but he has a greater brain than Nuddy ever had already. Nuddy was great, but from the "he doesn't know what he's going to do, so how do the opposition" school. I think young Alex has slightly, erm, slightly stronger morals than Nuddy, too: no doubt the young ladies of Coventry...

    The Hermanator!

    Marcus Hall was the first City player to make his debut when younger than me; Herman is the first in years to make his debut when older than me (just!). So on top everything else, he makes me feel like a youngster again! :D

    I agree with Ian

    Quite right; it was very fluid. Nimely, Bell and Sheff were fantastic in their movement, especially when Boro were down to 10 men, they dragged them all over the place. I kept screaming an Alan Partridge-esque LIQUID FOOTBALL! Eat my goal!

    I agree with Ian

    We've been poor away as we don't have pace and can't hit teams on the break-which is how most away points are won. Even O'Donovan against Southampton showed that a quick forward means the opposition defence have to sit 5-10 yards deeper, and can't squeeze up on our midfield as they had been...

    The Hermanator!

    What a fantastic debut by the old man! His reading of the game is superb, and his communication with team-mates brought the experience and leadership that we've been so desperately lacking. He was slightly sluggish early on, but fine once he got warmed up, like a vintage Ford Cortina. And his...

    Nimmmeeelllyyy!!

    I loved the way he kept coming deep to win the ball-he did it 7 or 8 times! It's not like the Boro players didn't know about him, but they looked terrified of him by the end. His passing and vision was absolutely immaculate, and his pass for the first goal was first time, at tempo, which made...

    Well deserved it was too. He called it perfectly tactics-wise, not least the subbing of Deegan after he'd done his job of kicking and winding up half the Boro team, chose the right man to come on in Bell, got fresh legs on for Platt when he was shagged, and the 4-2-1-3 formation second have was...

    No wonder this club is becoming a joke on and off the pitch when...

    Sorry Jack, I just got annoyed by reading in the first few posts the same-old anti-Thorn sentiments and started typing: couldn't bring myself to read the rest of the thread, an increasingly frequent feeling I'm experiencing of late.

    Well travelled striker Marcus Bent currently on trial at Coventry City.

    Marlon King's Premiership strike-rate wasn't exactly anything to write home about, you know..

    Save Our City are a load of tosh...

    If some people really think that people like Brinner and Jan are about building bridges with SISU, they don't know their work very well at all!

    We're Not Frightened Of Anyone - Thorn

    We actually created more chances against Saints in the cup with ROD & Sheff up front than we have all season with Juke. For all his limitations, ROD's pace meant we stretched the opposition and they had to sit 5-10 yards deeper-as emphasised when he went off and they promptly stepped back...

    We're Not Frightened Of Anyone - Thorn

    He also highlighted that, many times, in the past. He said we "didn't take our chances, they took theirs" just last week. He also spoke in the past about how if you don't score, 0-0 is the best result you can get and you need to be very good indeed at the back to get away with that every week...

    Yeah, we should bring our wingers off the bench, that'll shake things up..oh wait, sorry, WE DON'T HAVE ANY! OK, then we should make changes earlier..not at HT when Thorn did against Bristol and Southampton: if it aint working after 3 minutes, haul 'em off! Because our bench is laden with...

    Save Our City are a load of tosh...

    Now this is a load of tosh. For one thing the financial climate is harsher now than ever and it's only a matter of time before a "supposedly big" club goes under. As for us having a strong fanbase..are you INSANE?!?

    Well travelled striker Marcus Bent currently on trial at Coventry City.

    Sign him up! RE: Koumas-attitude issues, I do believe, not to mention wage demands. We don't want another Freddy, ta.

    If relegated, what next?

    Assuming we are owned by SISU, absolutely definitely D. Then maybe it'll be "D for Darlington-stylee"

    You are a traitor if you buy a season ticket next year!

    Is the OP on a wind up? Has he read the reasonable, civilised debate on here of late about boycotting and said "I aint 'avin that..time to WUM!"

    does anyone know when we last scored 4 in a game?

    Dowie was on R5 yesterday lunchtime, and it was a relief to hear that he still speaks complete and utter cliche-ridden claptrap. His career really has gone from strength to strength since we got rid, eh?
