wasps relegated and Coventry RFC promoted would be good

The Ipswich looked pretty good even if it is only one up front. O'Hare and Shipley are better than Hiwula and Jobello were earlier in the season at getting up to support the lone striker. This was the shape he played during his fist stint with us as manager

I'd like to avoid a big club. Good Championship sides that we might just beat at home on a good day would suit me.

Does the good performances of some players after leaving here raise a question about Robins man management / player development skills? Not many were sad at the departure of Ogogo, JCH or Chaplin. None of them performed that well for us. But they are seemingly performing well for someone else...

me too

What about O'Hare alongside Biamou (I assume his suspension has finished)?

mid three: Westbrooke, Kelly, Allen Front two; Godden (Baka) & Biamou Look a striker in January, not the perennial calls for wingers. With 5-3-2 we don't need wingers so much, if at all.

Apropos of nothing at all I played football at the under 16 level against Barry Powell. His mates always said that when everybody else was off home, him and a guy called Geoff Brady would carry on kicking a ball under the lamppost light until they were dragged in by their parents. Everybody knew...

I am not there tonight, but what I saw of Allen at Swindon pre-season he looked very useful. More useful than Bayliss in a League 1 situation, even tho TB clearly had more potential. I would have thought Zain W would be the man to give way

He pronounces"Mc-Fad-zean" phonetically. I always thought it was pronounced Mc-Fad-yen

NO No I don't agree I - having seen him at Swindon Allen was clearly earmarked to replace Bayliss but with more zip around the park, and more nowse. Shipley is a midfield workhorse by comparison. Heaven knows how you fit O'Hara, Allen and Westbrooke in the same team if we have Max and Godden...

I would like to see Westbrooke and Allen tried together, along with Kelly in the midfield. Westbrooke has got his chance because Bayliss was sold and his like for like replacement, Allen, has been injured. When Allen was hurt at Swindon, it was Westbrooke who came on. But Westbrooke appears to...

What is interesting here is that Widdrington asserts there was no scouting dept at all when Robins arrived the second time and recruited him in to set one up. Crikey. Secondly he sees the three ex-City players as very important. Was Robins in error at letting any of them go? Maybe Davies, not...

best laugh of the day...

I reckon this has draw written all over it. Our tight defense plus their poor scoring record. Mind you at the last game, I nearly had a heart attack when I landed in the UK and checked the score to see it was 4-5. If he plays 3-5-2 with both Walsh and Kelly it will be a difficult defence to...

I thought it was a pseudonym for DH which they did away with. Nimrod for rugby, Nemo for football

Walsh to go back to Bristol if Allen and Kelly are both fit.....Seems odd I realise after last week Or else we will be playing a midfield with neither Westbrooke or Shipley, and one of those should be in the team for future planning's sake

Unusually confident today, I can feel it in my waters (but that might be the medication). Don't know why. 3-1. He sticks with the Colchester formation, preferring players who in form even if they are slightly out of position.

They said similar about Peter Vincenti...
