Personally, I agree that weighed PPG was the fairest way to do it - a part of me thinks the EFL went unweighted for spite Peterborough a bit. But that’s irrelevant. If you don’t like Wycombe or Ainsworth, you don’t have a heart. They are shithouses, but they’re a plucky club who’s fans were...

Definite contracts for McFadz and Kelly. As for Biamou and Baka, we’ve got the luxury of time to see if they can prove their worth for more seasons. Biamou looks more likely to secure a new deal so far.

On the PPG they finished 3rd, and whichever way you look at it, they were punching above their weight being a playoff team as they went into the season with the expectation of survival, not promotion! They beat the in form teams to get promoted so they well and truly earned the right to play in...

Agree on that one. The box just hasn’t worked out this season. Personally, I think next time we thinking about playing that system, we try a more out an out 3-4-3 with either Giles or Jobello to give us more of a threat.

We’re being more direct because we have midfielders who can pick up the second ball. There were times, particularly when we were doing badly, where we tried to retain possession in our own third and at times it invited pressure onto ourselves. Robins is pragmatic, we’ve gone a bit more direct...

I don’t think anyone said they reinvested every single penny so, politely, it’s being pedantic for being the sake of it. Most clubs, barring the elites, have to constantly battle against costs spiralling out of control and selling players is a means to an end of paying their bills.

So when we bought Hamer and Godden that wasn’t reinvesting? We sold a (promising) midfielder, and got a 15 goal a season striker in return. Is your expectation that when a team sells a player, you should spend all that revenue on signing replacement players? That works for only the top teams.

We have. We sold Bayliss, bought Godden. Sold McCallum, bought Hamer. We have reinvested, but we also have to pay all the bills as there is a football club to run. Playing Birmingham, we’re just not going to spend more than what we receive in transfer fees. Even without COVID, we have less...

He would have prospered. It’s unfortunate for him that he’s had injuries and a move that hasn’t quite worked out for him.

We're 9th in the home table, so I'm pretty confident we'll avoid defeat. Frankly, a draw is a decent result but, you'd like to think we can take advantage of Huddersfield crushing defeat at the weekend.

We're joint 3rd, so I originally typed '3rd' but forgot to change 'rd' to 'th' for 4th... I'm pretty sure I referred to Godden as Gooden for months because autocorrect on my phone recognises Gooden as an actual word... Oops.

They're 20th in the home table and we're 20th in the away one. Frankly, our away form flatters to deceive a little bit because we have played a few of the top teams away. That, and we're now 4rd in the form table and only conceded 1 goal in 7 games from open play. We're in a position to push up...

Hamer Godden Kelly

So he was injured. Unless it has been injury related, has MR ever made a sub in the first half? Whilst he wasn’t really involved, he also wasn’t playing particularly poorly. Honestly, I wouldn’t have been surprised if it was Sheaf who came off who had played some wild passes before Hamer’s...

You have a point because for two seasons in a row, I’ve told my mate our first away win of the season will be against Wycombe. Viola. Kelly of all people got the goals to win the game.

You’re right, but we’ve not played them in a long while either! That, and their home record has been terrible this year!

My step-dad bought me the home shirt for my birthday, but unfortunately, I’d already bought it myself. So, he returned it and asked for the away shirt, and the club failed to send this for literally 2 months. I didn’t believe he’d returned it and it wasn’t until I sorted it all out on his...

I’m a bit more optimistic, Sheff Wednesday and Preston away are both winnable. PNE’s home record has been shocking. Our home record has been decent, so I’m hoping we can pick up points against Huddersfield and Stoke. Our defensive record has also drastically improved too, we’ve only conceded...

Sheaf clearly pushed him though, which everyone knows you can’t do in today’s game.

Another soft penalty conceded. When will we learn?
