    Ben Wilson' race for the golden glove?!

    With 11 games to play, the law of averages probably means he will make at least one error leading to a goal between now and the end of the season. We need to keep his performances this season in mind to give that some perspective when he does and hope that any mistakes are not crucial ones, as...

    Fifteen Years

    I was another from GMK. Under Nev & Smiler I thought GMK was excellent, but it fell apart under Knowl when it became very cliquey.

    Gyokeres

    Don't disagree with that, and maybe I was getting carried away with that run in the first half. Regis was very quick over 10 yards and could initially burst past players, or as I said before defenders would kind of bounce off him as he was so strong. Gyokeres has those same physical attributes...

    Gyokeres

    You not think that run he made in the 1st half with 4 of their players struggling to match his physicality and pace did not have a touch of Regis about it?

    Gyokeres

    For me the player Gyokeres has most similarities to from our past in terms of style of play is Cyrille Regis. Both have fantastic control where the ball can be fired at them, but that they manage to still somehow control it and turn. Gyokeres also has that Regis like balance and speed when...

    Transfer Shouts

    I suspect if Notts & Wrexham were in League 2 they would be leading that league also. The current Notts team re certainly a better footballing team than the one Nolan had when we met them in the play offs. Langstaff is absolutly on fire.

    Championship 22-23

    QPR is where he had the most successful spell of his playing career so there is bound to be an emotional tug to him returning to manage there. He is also near the upper limit of how far he can realistically take Wycombe, so I can see the QPR job being very attractive to him.

    Home v Sunderland 12.30, Sky, £33 a ticket

    Not sure how our sales look compared to normal but hopefully 2 wins on the bounce will tempt our supporters to provide a good turnout next weekend. Certainly 20,000 plus I would hope.

    Match Thread ⚽️ Rotherham United vs Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 18th Feb

    I'm pretty sure it was for a pre planned block on Bidwell who had been marking Hugill, and which then allowed him a free run to the back post unmarked. Stroud was positioned right in front of it so got a perfect view. That said refs don't normally spot those or view the tussling as both ways and...

    Transfer with Vik

    It depends how well we use that money. We will severely disadvantaged by losing Gyokeres and simply having a bit more money to buy a replacement doesn't guarantee a successful replacement and a better team, even though it will give us more leeway to strengthen other areas of the team. The last...

    Transfer with Vik

    I don't buy into the Burnley first refusal scenario. Seems to me its 2+2=5 type guesswork. In that scenario what happens if at the end of the season Everton offer £20m and Burnley only want to pay £10m? What happens if Gyokeres wants to go a club other than Burnley?

    You could put this same kind of post up at any point in the season. The Championship is notoriously unpredictable with teams constantly drifting in and out of form, often against most people's predictions. Its a cliche but it really is best to take each game at a time and see where you're at...

    Their player that really impressed me was their left wing back, Bramall. Not sure how he's progressed since that game but he looked a class above that night.

    Championship 22-23

    What's more surprising with Sunderland is that they have done so well even though their main forward has been, and is injured. They are on a bit of a roll at the moment and our match against them in a couple of weeks is going to be much tougher than any of us expected at the start of the season...

    23/24 Season Tickets

    Although I can advocate an increase in season ticket prices and possibly match day tickets too, the one area the club must continue to offer almost giveaway deals is on kids tickets, particularly while we are not filling the ground.

    New contract about to be announced

    I think we were still playing 4 at the back at this point and I certainly remember not being too impressed with McFadzean's start for us, where he seemed to overdo the playing out from the back, and where he often seemed to leave the defence exposed in doing so. Looking back now Fadz and the...

    23/24 Season Tickets

    I would expect season tickets to rise as high as £400, so approximately £17.50 per match. People will inevitably moan but that's pretty good value against likely match day prices. I think the £20 game band will be stopped but it will be interesting how the club set up matchday prices. There is...

    Championship 22-23

    People need to check his record out in this league. He has started off with numerous hopeless cases and turned them round. I would expect the same this time, and those people thinking that our upcoming game at their place hasn't become more difficult are sadly deluded.
