    Jordan Shipley - is he good enough for league 1

    Heard the other day there are more people in England who can hold an Irish passport than there are in Ireland .So all of us Paddies should back him not knock him. A 21year old and some want perfection. Good luck to the lad.

    The Curious Case of Jordy Hiwula

    Missed the Sunderland game I was away but if he (Robins) thought the way we were set up Tuesday night was going to win the game he needs to think again Portsmouth didn't need to get out off second gear if their CB 's won't have an easier game all season . We were set up far too negative.

    letsallsingtogether your post 534 according to your figures looks as though it's based on 71 games .If that is correct the away side got a result in 42 out of those games a shade under 60% so the home side done worse in the second half without checking back I don't think ours is that good . I...

    Match Thread Bristol Rovers v Coventry City match thread Saturday 22 Sep

    Grendal's comment " opposition know if they score first it's game over" is so true .The pressure is always going to be on our defence after a goal, managers know our forwards hold little or no threat mark Chaplin well and we are lost . Not having Bayliss yesterday was a big minus .

    Financial Madness ?

    Would be nice if that happened but I would not hold my breath waiting for our owners to put up serious money to buy the Ricoh

    Financial Madness ?

    You don't have to look as far as Reading we singed Stuart Beavon on a 2 year contract in June 2017 even at that time it was obvious that was money that could have been better spent elsewhere . All clubs waste money but I do admit the championship waste more than most . Magwitch if Villa went...

    The goal a certain player switched off causing that. He should be dropped for that alone. Unprofessional he is paid good money and should concentrate for all the game sorry but that's the way I see it We never had the fluency because they stopped Grimmer's runs but the management didn't seem...

    Irish Sky Blue I must admit Saturday first half was the best I've seen so far this season but once they sorted themselves out at half time I think they were in control we did not counter their move "no plan B".The wayward shot and headers is a recurring theme Saturday 16 2 on target Blackpool 8...

    Irish Sky Blue In my earlier post I did not call for Robin to go like you inferred but will say this so far this season no sign of a plan, we cannot change if situations dictate. We have players who repeatedly cannot tell when they are offside. We cannot hit the goal 7 games played...

    We carried 1 of those last season and nearly missed out on promotion looks like we have more than 1 this season. How can they be a huge asset read Wikipedia's version of a football forward that would be mine. or at the very least someone who supplies many assists ie: Shaun McConville and we have...

    S T P the 1 that gets me is the full hand in the back just as a player is about to head the ball clearly they are nowhere near the ball but gain an advantage from the other player missing their header.

    S T P if players fitness is a question why are they being played according to some on here he has 2 GOOD players for every position why is he playing unfit players .I also was not happy with Andreu at both ends . I except him to be dropped for the next game Like I've said before what do they do...

    Points from some of "Irish Sky Blue"s monologues post 587 "luck" from memory I don't remember us walking away with the first leg when we got a penalty a lucky 1 from where I sat Baylis going away from goal got a slight touch and went down given against us and there would have been uproar post...

    Today the tactics were alright to get 16 shots I thought is a pretty good average .We got the ball up fairly well to the strikers in good positions and they wasted them . We should have been out of sight at half time. What do we do in training? Because it is not shooting .I really do hope Conor...

    Just noticed a player who is not considered ready for our first team had as many shots on target as all our strikers on the pitch today , and he was only on for 36 minutes . I'm getting pissed off with "streetwise" coming from our manager, change the record don't we just the same when we are...
