I honestly don't think any clubs whose team he'd get in are 20k p/w clubs. Cardiff if they went up maybe, but if they can get people off Man City (even when in this league) they really don't need to grab tarnished goods from The Championship if they go up. Plus he'd have to get past Bothroyd...

Yeah, Portsmouth were given special dispensation. Bournemouth weren't even allowed to offer contracts, so I'd imagine that means we are out of the embargo? That or breaking it, tee hee. I don't think hiring Thorn makes SISU suddenly ok. It undoes none of the bad stuff. But it's one thing that...

FANTASTC news! Well done SISU, keep up stuff like this and you may convert even me! Of course it could just be 'cos 1)He's the cheap option 2)RR insisted he get the job as part of on-going takeover negotiations:p Either way, who cares. Remember that Fast Show character...

There's just a very vague bit in the CT which kinda contradicts their previous days "Thorn not offered job after Dulieu meeting!" angle. What it looks like is that one of their contacts has tipped them off that it's "likely" or at lest "50/50"; but they don't have enough hard evidence to print...

PLEASE GOD NO! If anyone could be worse than Shearer, it's him. Or Megson, obviously.

I'm sure their nickname used to be something to do with biscuits...I think there was a big biscuit factory there. I lived there for 3 years and it smelt lovely near that end of town. Still, that's probably akin to someone going "Sky Blues? I thought you were called The Bantams!?" It's odd, I...

Cracking interview with Mowbray in the CT I thought. A true gent and gracious in victory, I really hope SISU read what he said about our style of play and how impressive it is to have changed it so quickly. In fact, if SISU read that and heard Nick Pickerings reaction on CWR, that should be...

I wouldn't say we sat back against Scunthorpe-I think it was more of a case that we were building from the back, but we're still very much learning how to do that. The problem with Midboro was we kept attacking too much, when maybe we should have settled for a point. But from what Thorn said, I...

Yes, Wood shouldn't have been on the bench! His error led to the goal, as usual. He was maybe naive in that we should have sat back and settled for a point, but I got the impression that with nothing riding on it he wanted to keep pushing for all 3. Gotta admire taht, I suppose.

I didn't know Thorn worked with SH @Palace-that helps a lot. Explains a fair bit about their effectiveness as a team: if anything, Thorn is probably getting a lot more out of Harrison by allowing him more imput. Still, who would have thought Taylors No.2 and an ex-Crazy Gang CB could teach a...

Playing some decent stuff, sticking to our principles, Platty claims an assist FROM A BALL INTO HIS FEET! Take note, Mr. Hoofroyd! Sammy sounding superb again, lets try and avoid our usual equaliser just before h/t now lads!

Roy was deffo an Aidy signing, he saw him ripping up League 1 1st hand. I think Roy scored more in his loan spell last year than Morrison has got all season at Sheff Wed..deserves a chance ahead of Freddy after the Good Friday showing.

Real beauty by Davis, his first in a year! Leons was pretty funny-it was like he was swatting a wasp.

I hate Bellamy as he had the worst season of his career playing for us. Miss after miss after miss, usually from around 10 yards out! I know we should never have signed a guy just on the way back from a broken leg, but that was Gordon for you, not one to research these things. Hard to think of a...

I may be alone, but I quite like it! It's what I wanted-all Sky Blue, nice retro shade..you can't really re-do an old kit without working within very limited parameters and being faithful to the original, so I'm not sure what people expected! Sure, it'd look much better without the sponsor...

There's two pretty annoying kids sat near me, but they are quite entertaining at times. Whenever the King song is sung by opposing fans, they start up with their version of "she said yes". And when the old geezer sat near me shouts his weekly "sack the board!", they join in, attempting to match...

Tbh, it wasn't made "perfectly clear" that he had the job until summer. To quote Clive Eakin, "..it hasn't officially been announced, but we know that he has the job until the summer". About as clearly communicated as the RR resignation, I'd say. We only know he has the job until the summer...

If he was ever in the right place it must have been because he "jogged" over there to get some shade. Terrible showing by him. Stood with his hands on his hips looking knackered whilst everyone else was closing down. Bloody disgrace, see ya Freddy. Hussey was completely negated by Bakers...
