    Huffed and puffed but created almost nothing then conceded a soft goal. How many times have we said that over past couple of years?

    Dabo loses his man at the corner and it's a free header from 7 yds into the net ffs.

    Transfer Shouts

    If he doesn't go he's going to cost Norwich the best part of 2 million in wages and other costs. You would think they would accept less to get him off the books if he isn't playing much.

    Nothing in it. Neither keeper has had a save to make. Only 2 fouls first half, 1 each. We're playing quite well but not creating anything.

    Transfer Shouts

    I read an article about young players who came through Premiership academy's. Often the their first contract is the best contract they get. They end up released at 21-23 and drop down the league's or become disillusioned with the game and leave it altogether. A number of the England U17 Squad...

    Gyokeres to Everton- Two in exchange?

    Not strictly true. A player can only play for 3 clubs in a season if the club's seasons overlap ie a winter season in England and a summer season in the US. To be honest it's clear as mud. https://www.inbrief.co.uk/football-law/footballers-transfer-in-season/

    A signing! (Brooke Norton-Cuffy)

    Benik Afobe is your archetypal journeyman striker. His best ever goal return in the Championship is 13 in a season 8 years ago. Best assists in a season is 5. He'd be a decent squad player but probably not suited to our style of play. Great if your chasing the game and needed to lump it...

    Poor display yesterday. Only Bidwell scrapes a 7 as he scored. The rest Meh. Allen and Panzo particularly poor. Whoever is coaching the strikers needs to tell one of them to attack the front post. Most of our crosses go between the front post and the centre of goal but no one seems to go...

    Singers corner

    I had a season ticket in the Telegraph stand when we first moved to the Ricoh. Spent a lot of games with Sun in my eyes as it sets right behind the away fans. I wouldn't be going back in there.

    Then you take the risk he comes back not the same player or injury prone or worse case both. Probably worth the risk though.

    Championship 22-23

    I wouldn't read anything into that, they are desperate for a striker.

    If we get a bid acceptable to SISU or King and Vic wants to go he will go. The only question is how much will MR get to spend.

    Out of contract

    Dabo has been a good p!ayer for us over the years but always needs 3-4 games to get back up to speed. He may be playing 60% of games a season but is injured 4-6 weeks twice a season and is then poor for another 3-4 weeks while he gets up to speed. Would be sorry to see him leave but he needs...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Sheffield United vs Coventry City Match Thread - Monday 26th Dec

    When a player heads the ball in from inside the 6 yard box from a cross 30m away I always wonder why the keeper hasn't come and at least punched the ball. So hard for defender who has had to turn and run back towards the goal to get too the ball ahead of the attacker and direct it away to...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Coventry City vs Swansea City Match Thread - Saturday 17th Dec

    My point is we are throwing points away from comfortable positions. If you're 2 or 3 up you should be winning that game not hanging on hoping you can snatch a draw. Happened at Milwall and again yesterday. You get freak results but twice already and were not even 1/2 way through a season is too...

    Dog shit last 20 minutes. We can't keep giving comfortable leads away. That's the second time this season we've done it. Today was worse than Milwall. We've a soft underbelly that needs sorting ASP.

    As days go that was dog shite. City and England losing when they both shouldn't of lost at the very least. I have been saying for weeks in our group that go almost every cross we put in goes near post but we never have anyone attacking near post. There are 20 tap ins a season to be had.
