    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I don’t, although obviously I hope I’m wrong. I’m not convinced that boosting construction by relaxing planning laws is the way forward because we don’t have enough skilled workers.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    We aren’t in recession. That requires two consecutive quarters of negative growth and we have only had two consecutive months. It is disappointing though and with the anti-growth effect of the Budget yet to work through things are likely to get worse before they get better.

    We were the better team between the boxes. The Baggies were better where it counts. ☹️

    That won’t beat Keith Gillespie’s record. He came in as a substitute. Although he was on the pitch for ten seconds before being sent off play hadn’t restarted so he is regarded as being sent off after zero seconds 😆

    My best experience of a large crowd was when, at the age of twelve, I was at Highfield Road for the big match against Wolves in April 1967. Both teams ended up being promoted from the old division 2 to the top flight but our 3-1 victory virtually assured us of the title. IIRC the official...

    Any chance of Haji Wright being on the bench tonight? I assume it’s a bit too soon yet but we need him back.

    Absolutely. It’s one of the many reasons that I have always regarded her as a keeper. 😆

    Is talking a lot the prime requirement for being a goalkeeper? If it is we should drop Collins and select my wife. 😆

    I quite like Lati and with the CBs we currently have he’s a starter for me. If we can strengthen the back line then he’s a squad player.

    It was in response to a question as to how we could play EMC and HW together and in my opinion the only way is to have EMC on the left and HW in the middle. HW came to us as a central striker. He and Simms both struggled when they came to us but improved greatly when they had played for a few...

    I’ve got one of those: It’s pretty good, although I wouldn’t describe it as remarkable. 👍

    Haji Wright’s injury was a blow for us but the upside is that it has given EMC a run in the team and this has been good for him. When HW is fit again I would like to see them both starting. That probably means Haji playing as a central striker, either on his own or as one of a pair.

    Not a great half of football but on a more optimistic note it’s nice to see Sakamoto getting back to something like his best 👍

    Unless Torp and Rudoni swap positions from those predicted by the BBC. We will soon know.

    I will only predict the certain part of the score: Millwall 2 Sky Blues ? It’s looking like a win or a draw. Unless we lose ☹️

    I was disappointed for him but I’m sure his first test hundred won’t be too far away. Him and Brook will be the cornerstones of our batting lineup for years to come.
