    Is this more of a 3-5-2 or is Biamou going to be utilised in some strange position? Looks to me like we're taking an opportunity to rest players for the league. Slightly surprised Rose was the defender rested instead of Fadz but the club will have all the performance data and should know who...

    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    I've always wished that WAC was more central - it's a good venue with some quality acts that should've replaced stuff like the Hippodrome/Cov Theatre. This could possibly be converted for something like that but there's never been the will to try and bring something like that in. Instead of...

    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    An experiment with a highly likely outcome of failure which many predicted. If they wanted an 'experiment' it needed a control, like a traditional store close by to see which people preferred. The fact is we'll now been left with this massive building which is very poorly designed for a...

    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    Which has you asking why? Loads of people at the time saying this isn't suited to that type of retailer. Retail parks did and we had more than a few. So if Joe Public can work that out why can't the industry experts?

    There is also an argument for world security and reducing the likelihood of future conflicts and war. Europe has had centuries of fighting and wars with countries getting into willy-waving contests. Look where the last big bout of nationalism and populism took the continent/world.......

    IKEA Closing in Coventry

    When they proposed/built it I posted on another forum it was a stupid place to put it. Of all the out-of-town retail/business/science parks we have on old factories etc one of the retailers that REALLY suited those locations ended up in the city centre where the road infrastructure couldn't cope...

    I agree. having the long term goal is important but it's just as important to have the incremental interim goals that will lead to that ultimate goal for each and every parliament to reach. Otherwise we get to 2034, are nowhere near the target and whoever is in charge at the time gets it in the...

    Which supports the fact it isn't the English that are supporting her. She's hated here.

    One Minute Applauses.

    They wanted to commemorate Nicholas Parson's yesterday but no-one could decide what to do. Silence was too hesitant, applause to repetitive and anything else was deemed to have deviated.

    The vast majority of comments about Hopkins is what a vile creature she is. She relies more on upsetting the left than giving a voice to the right for her job - that is why she does it and makes massively inflammatory statements. It's anger against her that keeps her relevant, not those agreeing...

    On the EU, I see Alexander has said he won't accept alignment with the EU in a trade deal. Just like he'd rather be dead in a ditch than get an extension and couldn't possibly accept an Irish border. The only reason not to expect alignment with the EU is if the US tell him not to.

    The likes of Katie Hopkins and Tommy Robinson are massively unpopular with a massive swath of the country, just as Piers Morgan etc are. Of course they have people who agree with them but I'd imagine this O'Doherty woman does too. If she didn't how the hell does she have any kind of platform for...

    Was never that good. Had good stats because he'd put his foot on the ball and pass sideways, so he made lots of successful passes but more often than not totally killed a breakaway and allowed the opposition to get back. Clingan was similar. . He was poor here IMO but abysmal is harsh

    We were told he was a bit 'feast or famine' when he joined and he goes on purple patches like consecutive hat tricks then nothing for weeks. If you consider those two hattricks it means he's only scored in 5 separate league games and also has a few penalties to his name. As we're still doing...

    Would bring in Pask, just not sure whether for Dabo or Fadz. I'd give Biamou a run out and give Mason a game. Probably put Shipley back in for this alongside Allen. Maybe even put Westbrooke back in as well depending on if they feel Allen can do three games in a week. Marosi Rose...Fadz...Hyam...

    Fadz did step a bit to his left allowing JCH to take advantage and get past him but once he realised JCH was going past him he didn't have the strength to block him. Might have been worried about bringing down and another pen or red card. Was a tight angle for JCH too so may have been a tactical...

    That sounds like a error by the architect or builder.

    Brilliant three points to come from behind and two excellent goals. Shows our strength in depth in those attacking midfield positions. Poor goal to concede all round - from losing the ball at the throw to Fadz being outmuscled too easily, the poor communication (I'd have expected Fadz to know...

    Transfer Rumour Ryan Giles on Loan - Confirmed

    Who played right midfield? Seems an odd thing to do when you're playing with a back three and win backs to put a big striker just in front of one of them. Was it like earlier in the season when MR said Max didn't follow his instructions? He seemed to play wide left then too. Mind you I think MR...
