    tbf although he was no Zidane, I recall he was a good character and served the club well, possibly captained us at times too?

    His first touch was subtle enough to score from 30 yards.

    Are you quoting his obituary in The Times?

    Ipswich Ratings

    Some (nearly all) of the comments about Ayari are excessive (1/10 etc.). Yes, we can all see he's lightweight for this environment, but he was superbly involved in a great move in the first half. I don't think he should be starting games, especially a tough one like yesterday's. But he has...

    Would he come to Coventry though?

    In that scenario it's nearly all gone, only Salts tobacconist left standing.

    Match Thread Ipswich Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 2nd Dec

    He stayed back and left way too much of the net (both sides of him) to shoot at for the first. At least make it as difficult as possible for the striker.

    Transfer Rumour Ellis Simms

    A bit of paranoia there Deleted member 9744! I honestly didn't have you in mind, as I don't fixate on who said what on here (apart from when people get properly offensive towards our players). I happen to really like both Simms and Wright, and feel they've both had some insane criticism from a number of...

    Transfer Rumour Ellis Simms

    Seems a shame that most of the comments about Simms are currently on the wrong (Wright!) thread. As someone who saw a lot of positives with Vik even during his loan spell (although I can't claim to have forseen quite how good he could be), I have to say I have similar feelings about Simms at...

    Rules they should bring back

    Rules they should bring back

    Despite some people thinking it’s a new rule, I think the “whole of the ball must be over the whole of the line” has always applied. We can (usually) just measure it better now. In researching this, I came across some gems from the early days of the game in the 19th Century. “If the ball...

    To all the jocks on here

    In the days when the forward line was defined as 5 players (right and left wing, inside right and left, and centre forward) I recall a bit of fuss being made about this all-Scottish lineup. Ernie Hannigan, Ian Gibson, Neil Martin, Gerry Baker and Willie Carr. Wow, there was some talent in that...

    Recruitment has been shocking

    It would help if you didn't give any of our players vile abuse in the first place though. Fair enough to make constructive criticism and then eat humble pie. But as a supporter, calling one of our players a useless c**t just isn't right. (It's not just you btw)

    It's not a photo. It's the system's graphical representation of where it calculates the ball to have been.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Plymouth Argyle Match Thread - Tuesday 28th Nov

    It's not new - surely the rule has always been "whole of the ball over the whole of the line"? We've just got lots of cameras and technology now to judge it. (I think that was probably out of play last night though!)
