    Ellis Simms

    That isn’t the same as the manager making it clear he trusts you, believes in you, and allowing you to find your feet at a new club. I think we can all see that Simms is a confidence player and a pretty low ego guy.

    Godden signed a new 3 yr deal only last summer as a championship player.

    I love hearing Oggy after the match on BBC CWR and most of the time I think he talks great sense but occasionally he has a wild opinion. I remember him saying he wouldn’t have signed Vik and we should have kept Biamou last night he said he thought Palmer was again excellent and hinted that...

    That model works at any level as long as your talent sporting is excellent.

    Doug on CWR

    Yes there is it’s just the fans don’t like it. You buy young talented players and sell them for more money a couple of years on . Brighton made £120m + last season. There certainly isn’t a sustainable model if you expect to retain your best players …..

    I look at that period as a wasted opportunity …. Robins persisted with Godden and didn’t give Ellis any run of matches …..

    24/25 changes?

    Robins continues to moan about the lack of depth in the squad but I assume it was his decision to give new deals to Godden and Kelly last summer. Neither have made any contribution since Christmas …. If he had replaced these 2 players with ones he trusted more that would have allowed more rotation.

    I think it depends on what you mean by serious and whether we have any high profile exits ( excluding COH ) It’s only 1 year ago that £3m investment would have been dreamland for us. I expect Sheaf to leave and a spend of circa £12m.

    I really hope so. Sunday was one of my best ever days following City, and I’ve been doing it for 5 decades.

    There is one huge difference…. It’s not in our hands ….. We also need other teams to slip up in their 2 remaining matches. I expect both to win on Saturday.

    Tonight is our chance to say thank you for Sunday. The players and staff deserve th it is not a massive match, if you think it is then you haven’t looked at the league table or upcoming fixtures. Just because something is mathematically possible doesn’t make it likely or probable.

    Most managers / head coaches bring their back room staff with them …. If you were hiring Robins you would want him to bring Adi with him. This is certainly not a barrier to Robins exiting.

    I doubt that …. When we eventually go our separate ways Robins will have no shortage of offers and he seems like a guy with football in his veins.

    Credit where it’s due I thought COH was pretty good yesterday and certainly worked hard despite lacking minutes in his legs. If however I was a Premier league scout looking at Cov he would not have been one of the names I would have gone back to recommend .
