Right so half a season of good form in League 1 means he is proven? He played 42 games in League 1 for an awful side, same for Morecambe in League 2. In my opinion he has decent technical ability, but is nowhere near good enough for the championship..therefore I'd be surprised to see him shine...

No I do agree that it could be pretty devastating for them, and having experience around them is essential. But if they want to be good enough, then ultimately they have to perform. Additionally, without investment, I don't see that we have many other options..

Perhaps not, the level is lower, I'm not sure how much more physical it really is, additionally they've a seasons experience under their belts. Could be good for them to be first choice players.

So how do you propose we reach a level that is capable of competing in the championship without players like bigi? As things stand we have zero investment and are in League 1. Give Gael two years at this level and by the end of it, we could have a player with some actual ability on our hands. If...

echo this, plus he's been offered a two year deal, whereas we'll have only offered him a one year deal (surely?), at 34 I can see him retiring after his two years at cobblers

Completely agree, and I would add that the statement is positive pr, creating the illusion that the club are trying to keep keogh, when in reality they have every intention on cashing in on him, albeit at a higher price

Harsh on Barry, very under rated player in my opinion. There's a reason he was one of a minority that played virtually every game in a premier league winning side.

ROD is just not good enough. I think he'd struggle to hit double figures in the conference (there's a reason he barely featured at a side relegated and struggling for goals). Disagree about Platt as well, he's almost immobile. Scores the odd header now and again but I don't think he unsettles...

There is absolutely no way Rodgers is being lined up for the man united job, furthermore what has led you to that conclusion? Rodgers has done a good job, but Lambert at Norwich has definitely done a better job! Additionally Rodgers inherited a great side at Swansea, where managers such as...

Liverpool still a huge club whatever you say, and if Rogers knew he was guaranteed the job he'd definitely take it. The reason he hasn't is because there is so much competition for the job, with up to a dozen managers being interviewed..according to various different sources. Therefore I think...

Have to consider whether Ferdinand or Terry will go, I don't think they both can and it's a very difficult decision for Hodgson. My CB defensive partnership switches altogether depending on which one of them is selected and plays. Lescott and Ferdinand or Cahill and Terry. Would also love to see...

ridiculous

Didn't get to the match today, but obviously watched it on the BBC. Find myself agreeing with many of the comments, talented group, but not got the physical edge. However I do have room for optimism. Next year we need to stabilise and find our feet in League 1. Would love us to get promotion...

Could be wrong but I thought our first match in the championship or Division One, was against Stockport and we got a 2-0 win? Could be wrong though. I think the best (and most realistic) scenario is we have a takeover, get rid of the high earners in the squad, possibly selling others. Leaving...

The strict Fair Play rules are only being applied to PL, I believe in League one the only thing that will happen or may have already, is a salary cap. Good article thought Otis, agree with much of what has been said. I would suggest that of the list we may not lose quite so many of the younger...

bristol have barnsley at home who're on shocking form, i'd expect bristol to win, sending us down on saturday

As for Westwood, good enough to play PL football, however there's only 20 number 1s in that division, hard to get there. Needs a break, that's all.

Not a chance, if you were a professional footballer you would want to test yourself at the highest level. I can tell you now I'd rather make 15-20 PL appearances a season than 40 championship ones. You train with better players, play against better players in the greatest (certainly most global)...

Possibly it is just the optimist within me..but I honestly don't think, when fully fit, there's a great deal between the two of them. Right now Keogh is a cult hero, but I think we have to look at the fact we're third bottom, and without pompey's deduction would be second bottom. A couple of...

Hang on there mate, don't think I ever said 'I don't like Keogh', I actually think he's a very good defender and also a better player overall than McPake. My point was that I think with a fully fit McPake, I don't think we lose out too much. Despite what you say, I think there have been games...
