    Rose going to a Premier League Club

    According to the Godden / O'Hare Q&A a little while back they said he was one of the quickest at the club - something we lack. He generally is a decent passer but had an off game yesterday in that department. He was excellent in the match at Southampton so he is a capable player. As has been...

    Fallen short?

    Unfortunately I think it was always going to tail off. We are a high energy team with a small squad. I am not surprised we have burnt out a bit. Adding to the toll on the players is the deteriorating pitches. The pitch looked good tonight but some of the games at CBS have looked heavy. With...

    Moore 6 (thought he could have been more decisive at times but don't really think he could have kept out both goals) Kane 6 (a couple of decent interchanges and one good piece of cover play but otherwise mediocre) Hyam 5 (2 good blocks, particularly the one in 1st half but totally bullied by...

    Feel sorry for him. Looks very nervous. Clearly a much better player than what he has shown.

    Dabo and Bidwell only players to come out with any credit. Gyokeres did okay but those around him wasted everything.

    Bidwell is our best centre back at the moment

    Tactically spot on but not enough quality on the ball tonight. O'Hare must be the best player in the league off the ball but on the ball is a totally different matter unfortunately. His control is not good enough, let alone his shooting.

    Moore 7 (no chance with goals. Distribution good) Dabo 7 (some sloppy passing but crossing much better, including the assist) Rose 7 (steady) Hyam 7 (steady) Bidwell 8 (some great headers and blocks) Maatsen 6 (kept going but lost the ball far too frequently) Allen 8 (some nice link up...

    I am surprised by those comments. If you can play left back and you are only 19 years old, surely you can play wingback or develop into one. Bidwell looks like a left back more than a wingback.

    8 games to go

    I think it will be a struggle to move much above where we are. However, nothing would surprise me with this squad. When they look down and out they come back fighting. It has been an impressive season, so I hope at least we have some positive momentum to carry through the summer.

    That's assuming mine isn't as big!

    Met Oggy in the Pet Shop

    For red nose Day I got permission to roll a tennis ball around the pitch at Highfield Road with my nose. When I came out into the arena the first team were training. Bobby Gould was shouting at John Williams. As I was crawling around Oggy came over and asked if I wanted a bigger ball. I was so...

    Do you have an idea when he is likely to be available?

    Jodi Jones

    I am sure, had he not had his recent injury he would have had some proper game time in the run in with the injuries and illness we have had. His latest setback has probably scuppered it. Shame we didn't see more of him to get a indication of whether he is worth offering a new contract too...

    Ratings v Derby

    Your later post shows Allen had the highest passing accuracy and 2 key passes so hardly think it is fair to make any comparison to Shipley. Allen also works hard off the ball.

    Unfortunately I have thought that for a while (apart from when he filled in at LWB) but Robins continuously puts him in or on as sub. I don't understand what he sees in him.

    Moore 8 (good handling and some decent saves) Dabo 5 (positionally dubious defensively. Rash at times and got away with a pen and red card. A couple of decent crosses though) Bidwell 8 motm (looked really good at LCB. One great block throwing himself against the shot. Needed more of that...

    Maatsen found out time and time again (as was Dabo). Anyone think he, or any other post-McCallum player has done better than what we would have expected from Brandon Mason (apart from his injury)? I don't.
