Are you sure you’re not Grendel? Your tangential pedantry and wish to argue about anything is very strong …

Not really the point chum. Just because one naturally very talented player who was here will become a top flight footballer, doesnt mean anyone here can with a bit of our coaching sauce eg. Simms.

Probably our best team atm that. Dont think he’ll play Bidwell or Kelly and he’ll probably play Palmer, Jds. Kitching no idea what Robins thinks about him tbh. Or Collins!

The crowd will probably be a bit prickly for this one. High expectations, probably a slighty flat atmosphere and with low away support. We need a few players to ‘spark’ early on. That’s where we really miss Sakamoto who is usually a live wire.

Rotherham are bottom of the league and bottom of the form table. They are dead in the water with hardly anything to play for. We can’t cock this one up. Can we??

Even the West Midlands riviera?

Who would a top 6 Championship side want to buy from us? Sakamoto, Sheaf, (COH). Maybe Torp in a while. That’s about it. We lack quality.

Villarreal are a pretty ordinary club not in the most interesting of locations. But would be interested to see how he gets on in tippy tappy skill oriented Spanish football. Probably reasonably well.

Ok. Never heard Torp being called Vik before….

Are we talking about Viktor Gyökeres who scored in that game against Benfica who top the Portuguese premier league. That bloke?

Do you really believe Simms can become a £100m Premiership player with a bit of coaching? Because some other really talented guy likely will?

Wright has been at 7 clubs in 8 years. There might be a reason for that other than him liking travel and diverse cultures.

Not sure how you can coach in aggression either. An aside from that is we have no attacking player who can head a ball. I guess heading involves getting in the mix and imposing yourself physically. Which our attackers struggle with.

It’s also why our stats are skewed in that we are attacking games for prolonged periods to try and equalise.

You mean we need to coach him how to stand, put one foot in front of the other and then kick the round thing properly. Great.

Mate. We’ve beaten Oxford, Sheff Wed and Maidstone in the FA cup. We've done ok in the league. But many new players have been disappointing, Robins still isn’t clear on his best 11 and we seem to be playing worse in the run in. I guess it’s lack of optimism looking forward that we have the...

Unfortunately my gut feeling is we will look back on the Wright, Simms signings as the biggest mistake Robins made at the club. Wasting a large chunk of the windfall money we got, including associated wages. The only hope is we can sell probably Wright on for half decent money.

It’s a bit desperate that we already signed 2 strikers, a keeper, a left back and the conclusion is we need a striker, a keeper and a left back…. Ps. Who’s being dropped when EMC comes in?

Some of the media pundits seem to be openly going after Simms now. Not going to do him any good. Wont do his resale value any good either.

It would help if we had strikers who could head a ball.
