    Be fair, though, he's shit in a lot of positions.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Ipswich Town [FA] Match Thread - Saturday 8th Feb

    We are nowhere near good enough for the playoffs. The defence needs completely overhauling.

    Fourth Kit

    I like it. Pity the sponsor isn't the charity's name, but I guess that they are contractually obliged to have Monzo on the front.

    Transfer Rumour January transfer window

    Can't understand any genuine supporter of a football club trying to defend Milton Keynes. It would have been like Sisu taking us to Northampton, leaving us there and then changing the name and colours of the club. They are stolen goods; all footy fans should be in solidarity with the...

    Clive's genuinely one of my favourite sports commentators. He can be a bit erratic, but he's knowledgeable, engaging, fair, and fun to listen to. Some of his commentary is iconic.

    You're not a very emotionally mature man, are you, really.

    Championship thread 24/25!

    Proper tiki-taka is, though. That Spain side that hoovered up all the trophies 15 or so years ago; god, it was horrible watching them. They were so, so good, and so, so boring. Death by 1,000 cuts. By contrast the Spain side that won the Euros were magnificently entertaining.

    Burnley's record is amazing, and their football is boring to watch. The two are not mutually exclusive.

    Tbf, in the 90s at least it was reciprocated. Midlands representation in the Prem consisted of us and them for that decade.

    Transfer Rumour January transfer window

    Are they? I mean they're a bit scruffy, but I doubt that many pay them much thought. They're not really a football club, but Milton Keynes are universally loathed, and rightly so. Apart from in Milton Keynes itself, where nobody seems to give a fuck either way.

    So he did. Clough signed John McGovern four times, though. Offered him his initial contract at Hartlepool, then signed him for Derby, Leeds and Forest. He thought he could do a job, clearly.

    How many times did Strachan sign Telfer? At least three.

    Or just a bit short.

    Pato

    The trend that has started of using players' given names rather than surnames is annoying. Though, of course it hardly hurts anyone and people's personal posting style is their own concern. It still annoys me, though.

    Josh Eccles

    He has an unnecessary 'r' in his name.

    He fits in tactically very well with how we are playing at the moment, and is also captaining the side. He may not start every game from now until the end of the season, but if he stays fit, I can see him playing a big part in it.

    Was Doug correct about the deck?

    There have been some shocking performances this season, though.

    And with that Simms chance....

    I was going on the premise of £3-4m for initial outlay. Not through the roof, but for a club of our means, we have to be getting those sorts of transfers right.

    They sold him at the end of the season. He played against us in the playoffs.
