    Match Thread Rotherham United vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 5th Oct

    Generally poor. O'Hare is flickering though and Mason playing well. Kastaneer has done a few surprisingly good things too. Marosi and McFadzean are giving chances - and goals - away hand over fist - the second today was a carbon copy of last week's mistake. I've been having the old kittens all...

    Ratings versus Oxford

    Marosi 7 top-drawer saves but has a shaky look about him at times Dabo 6.5 two OGs all the same and lost the ball dangerously once trying to break too fast, nice cross for Godden's goal though Rose 6 marked as part of defence conceding 3 - truthfully didn't notice him much Hyam 7 any number...

    Transfer Rumour Incoming - Callum O'Hare - Season Loan

    I can assure you Forest certainly do dislike Leicester pretty keenly, even if Direby are the bigger rivals Grew up in Notts in the 80's-90's

    Marosi 7 - made one very good save Dabo 5 - neither as enterprising as Grimmer nor as classy as Sterling - yet McFadzean 6.5 - a very big presence but did he overdo it? Rose 6 - more or less solid Mason 6 - all right, made a few good overlaps and put in some decent crosses Westbrooke 6 - all...

    Bayliss off?

    Yes, I agree you did, in particular because you are right about keeping hold of the core and building on it. Not cashing in and then trying to get a load of new players to gel. Bayliss going is a real stinger. Preston! Hard to believe that that's the state of football today...

    Squad as it is

    Some nice measured posts in this thread, like it. I felt Burge got far too much stick, but it had become time for him to go. Pity it's to Sunderland. Probably Marosi will be better, especially without the history of gaffes Burge had built up. No idea about Dabo but I still miss Grimmer and his...

    Disallowed goal

    I asked this question in the match thread - having watched it back loads of times I can only assume the ref blew up for Bright not falling over (and thus looking guilty) when their player launched himself into him on the edge of the box. I find it strange this hasn't been mentioned more often-...

    Why was our goal disallowed? I've watched it back countless times - looks like their man launches himself into Bright who, back turned, stands his ground. Must have missed something - or maybe the ref realised a Baka goal would upset the delicate skein of the fabric of reality?

    Agree with all of this except I'd put 'did' for 'done' in Hiwula's evaluation ;) Think we were watching the same game!

    pleasant enough to watch and we're a much better footballing side than them but one does wonder who's going to stick it in unlikely to be Bakayoko on this showing... one fears the 0-1, as many have said

    Another letter...

    I also live abroad and get to one or two matches a season, though unlike you I have little idea why the club I have supported ferociously and exclusively for 33 years is menaced with expulsion from the football league. Greed? Pride? They wouldbe my first guesses... Anyway, I applaud your...

    JCH - did we really misjudge him ?

    Anything but 100% in all games. He was a maddeningly ineffective player who seemed to spend long periods of many games either invisible or baying petulantly for imaginary free-kicks. You're probably right he needed to play in a two upfront though. Perhaps his isolation was the cause of his...

    Match Thread Barnsley vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 30th Mar

    Watched on ifollow Really entertaining game. Thought Barnsley were the best opponents I've seen, really quick to break from defence to attack, neat passing around our area and some skilful players. Feared the worst tuning in at 0-1 but we never rolled over. Our equaliser did us the world of...

    Video Coventry v Oxford U

    Ponticelli stops running for some reason as the tackle is made. Dunno why - maybe he thinks Shipley is about to shoot? It looks more like a penalty every time I see it though - their number 4 just barges Shipley down to prevent him getting the ball. That said, in real time it looked 50/50 at...

    Thought Turgott was an attacking midfielder, Odelusi arguably too
