Another great result and it's the perfect time to look at what is happening to our team. It's called momentum and it belongs to us this year. We have had an unbelievable return points wise and it is beautiful to see. I am so pleased for all the fans that go to Birmingham and the magnificent...

Spurs beat us at WHL 1-0 so two wins

Context is everything in our cup win. It was a great game against a very good team in an era where everything was turned on its head. Oxford and Luton and Norwich won the league cup, Coventry and Wimbledon won the FA cup and QPR and Sunderland reached league cup finals. Without the European ban...

He was too small but very agile, actually so was Paul Cooper, the penalty saving expert.

What a transformation! In 16/17 we were simply appalling and three years on we are all n the cusp of something special. Mark Robins deserves every credit and we are lucky to have him. Somehow it just fits.

I have always had a high regard for Ipswich Town and the fans. League Chamions under Alf Ramsey, FA cup and Uefa cup winners under Bobby Robson and a major force for many years; certainly punching above their weight. I was working as a hotel porter back in the mid to late seventies and the...

Rather than the day to day difference of opinion based upon McCallum having his head turned by his move to Norwich and needing to be replaced by Giles, the forum was consulted about the content of the initial statement and approved it overwhelmingly. I believe that many points raised by Smmeee...

I must say that I am delighted that the meeting took place and even more impressed that this post is the first we knew about it. I get the sense that the meeting represented the views discussed on this forum rather than Pete or Mark's views and that is how it should be. I enjoy your posts Smmeee...

And that's the problem with football, we can't really let go of the worry that it is still possible to fall away so we don't savour these times. If we go up it will be momentarily glory then preparing ourselves for a hard season ahead in the championship.

Momma said there'd be days like this.....

I am sure you are all aware that there are plenty of games to go and nothing will be decided this weekend, win lose or draw. Sure a win will be fantastic but there WILL be twists and turns over the next two months. What bodes well for us is that we have got this far with three defeats and by...

Of course Robins has his favorites,they are the ones that deliver. If not, he chooses an alternative which is why we have a squad. What did Giles deliver on Tuesday that puts him in the side? We will see if Robins selects him tomorrow. In the eyes of some once he signed for Norwich McCallum was...

In a in a 4 definitely IMO and in a 5 possibly. Willis is a very good defender who gave good service to us

Agreed. I would give Kelly some sleeping tablets, massage him like Wagyu Beef whilst he is sleeping and wake him up @ 1130 on Sunday in his full kit and boots on with the instructions to run the show.

What surprises me is that there has been the Bennett/Speedie incident, the Froggatt/Summerbee incident and the countless games to wet the appetite but I didn't sense a rivalry during that time or even bitterness. Whatever set of circumstances happened on that 77 night the fact is Sunderland lost...

No indeed, although Villa were in Division 3 then I believe.

I love the optimism but you do realize we got 1 point out of six against Rotherham? that showed them...

Rotherham reminded me of Accrington in their league 2 winning year. The sum of the parts were greater than the individuals and you can see why they would be a yo yo side. That said in the first half an hour I felt that we hadn't started and they were turning the screw without looking too...

Wilbrahim at Rochdale, when he came on, and Smith last night were both huge centre forwards who disrupt and harry the defenders and create second balls for others to run on to. A different set of problems for our back three. Rotherham's midfield were strong runners and technically adept so you...

Happily I am watching it now in glorious technicolor.
