    Would you have bright back?

    Great player, but disrupted the team formation so that collectively we were not improved. That applies even more now

    Next two games

    If we want to be half way by half way - 12th after 23 games - we probably need 4 wins aand 5 draws in the remaining 9 games. Of those games only Millwall away on 2nd Jan looks really tough, it is just that at this level the odds are always against such a long unbeaten run.

    January transfer window

    we have no money (so none coming in) and a comparatively small squad, (so none going out). We are also max'ed out on loans. The only conceivable variable is the team's performance in December against the lower placed clubs. If that is half decent and we move up to lower mid-table, Robins will...

    Not sure it was a dodgy penalty. The other guy got the ball first

    This the kind of game I hate - you spend 70 or so minutes wracked with tension. You love the equalizer but games like this really put you through the ringer.

    I'd have gone for 5-5-0-0

    I think a number of people were more than puzzled by the Cardiff selection.......

    The choice of Baka makes sense. The job is to chase and harry for 90 minutes. Hamer, less so. But is a 'park the bus' team though, which is what is needed. I predict 75 minutes of frantic back to wall defending and then two late Norwich goals

    Not today we don't. We just need a keeper who can hump it miles to the other end of the pitch, and then we make it hard for them to get back to our end. Against Bournemouth (just to pick a comparable example), when we worked it out from the back, we rarely got past half way before losing...

    If Cov are like other clubs all players and staff are tested weekly. A friend who is a director of one of the smaller League 1 clubs tells me each test costs £200. They would test before signing I assume.

    I am certain that at the start of the season this one was marked down as a defeat, and it almost certainly still will be. But there are some things I'd like to see. 3-5-2 formation Sheaf, Kelly and Hamer sitting in front a back three and then park the bus for 90 minutes. In front of them...

    Have I missed something - MaCallum is injured?

    Can we trust a goalie named Lee, that is the question. It will be very hard for some.

    That was my thought. I'd like Hamer-Kelly-Sheaf as the central midfield

    It was 2-0. Machin got the other. Man Utd were shagged out after a long trip back from Poland, but who cares

    Maurice Setters R.I.P

    He kept us in the first tier almost single handed that first season. We owe him a huge debt. George Curtis had a serious injury in the second game of the season and the replacement brought in by Jimmy Hill, Tony Knapp was well past his best (if he ever had one). Noel Cantwell brought in Setters...
