    January .

    I really don’t know what TM saw in Turnbull that made him think ‘yeah, this guy’s worth a fee and a 3 year deal’. Him and Willis are getting badly found out as the weeks go by. I’d go as far as to say they are becoming the weakest CB pairing we’ve had since relegation to League 1.

    Would you go to Wembley if we make it?

    Can't really believe this is even a thread. Obviously I’d be going, along with 30-40k others

    It could have been Leeds United .......

    Gate receipts are split 55:45 with the away club in FA cup games so even if attendance was 20k, would only have received 11k worth of receipts. Again, not to be sniffed at but hardly going to make a huge difference – we were getting 11k last season.

    CWR post Cambridge phone in ....

    Complete waste of time promoting from within as nothing will change on-field . Whoever it is (Eaden, Oggy, Ricketts, Dave Hart, Laura Hunter, the canteen chef etc etc) would essentially be just another interim and will continue to coach and train the players in the same style as Venus has after...

    Stevenson Red v Rojo yellow

    Yeah it’s more the niggly things, the ‘dark arts of the game’ as TM called them that we lack experience in. Things like one of our CMs making a professional foul around our centre circle area-ish if an oppo player is driving forward and has a clear run at our defence, little kicks when...

    Worst City team in history?

    I thought the Sixfields side under Pressley in 13/14 was bad in terms of depth at the time, but have to say this lot are substantially worse. No goals in the strikers, Sordell apart perhaps when he’s not played out wide, and the back 4 are shorn of leaders. We are crying out for experienced...

    Why the fuck did he start Harries and Maycock in the first place? Said we had to go with our biggest, most experienced team to even give ourselves a chance, not two kids with barely 10 games of men's football between them!

    I'm almost feeling the same. Make it a complete and utter embarassment (not that it isn't already)

    There's no defender?! 'Lack of depth at the back'...........

    The lack of depth at the back is on show today. Can see us being brutally exposed if we don't recruit in Jan

    Sterry must have a knock to not even be in the squad. Assuming 3-4-3 again :banghead:

    Surely we need to field the biggest, most experienced (minus Tudgay) side possible if we have any ambitions of the 3rd round. Something like: Burge Sterry Willis Turnbull (sigh) Page Rose (if fit) Bigi Gadzhev Reid McBean Sordell Subs: RCC, Harries, Lameiras, Jones, Maycock, Tudgay, G Thomas

    Men vs Boys this one. I'll be very surprised if we win, one of the few games this year where I'm genuinely expecting us to lose.

    Stevenson will be gone in January, lad.

    Think they both have similar limitations (slow, not great on the ball, not as physically dominant as they could be). Not been impressed by Turnbull this year but as you say, Martin was god awful season before last.

    Don't think there's much between Turnbull and Martin tbh.

    We've hardly seen Stokes at CB, I'd say it's a risk to expect him to be the solution especially with the injury he's had. Ease him back in at LB where he knows the position.

    Not too surprised by that. I can't imagine the rest are on much more than 1-2K/week. Sordell an exception I'd imagine, seeing as he drives a Maserati into training every day!
