Allen for Godden would be my only change. Back to 5 in midfield. Crucial game, and I am not sure I trust BNC to start ahead of Dabo despite Dabo's poor form. playing Godden & Vik again would be suicide against a team that will keep the ball. If Robins feels a change of shape is needed, maybe...

Robins said he was on the grass this week, but probably not quite ready. Would expect him to be available for Swansea.

If that happens, then we'll beat Swansea and Watford and still be in the mix for the last 5 games

All 3 of them will be big players next season. Yes and that includes Tavares. Got a feeling that lad will be a great player. If Vik goes then Tavares and Godden will need to step up. Unless Walker bangs in 5 in the last 8 games and we give him an extension

Yes, I remember that now. Horrible. Wasn't he hit by the Arsenal team bus as it entered Highfield Road?

As everyone knows, we are capable of beating all of the 8 teams left we have to play. It's about how Robins sets the mentality of the players. We should be beating Stoke at home, but being CCFC, we might lose that one and then smash Swansea and Watford, and be right back in it

I remember our first game after he left was a 0-1 defeat at Highfield Road against Arsenal. We battled hard, but clearly missed big Dion. Got back to the car and heard he smashed a hattrick on his debut for Villa. Crushing. To be fair after that Strachan got Whelan & Huckerby working well as a...

Regis and Gallacher. I think these 2 would also be as effective these days as they were then. Perhaps not the best finishers compared to Quinn, Dublin & Gibson but both technically excellent with pace and skill

Yes a tough game. We didn't play our best against Hull a few weeks back, when expectations were high, and I still remember that Bournemouth game last season off the back of the 3-1 win at Fulham. If they nullify Vik which I am sure they will be working on, and without O'Hare and Palmer I am...

Adam Armstrong was terrific for half a season under Mowbray. Then the January window and the sale of Maddison sucked the life out of the team, and he like many others wasn't the same.

I think Walker deserves to start, he did well at Blackpool. So unchanged for me. Allen & Godden to be introduced if we need a goal. Dabo was excellent against Huddersfield and Hull so give him another chance for this one. Can't see a lot of goals in this one. 1-0 COV.

Moyes is unfairly lumped in with the old bully boy dinosaurs like Allardyce, Pullis & Bruce. He worked miracles at Everton with a tight budget, got them into Europe. He was given less than a year at Man U which was unfair, and to be following Ferguson was an almost impossible task (whoever you...

Thought Walker was excellent yesterday, certainly first half. Made good runs and was heavily involved in all our best attacking moves. He faded a bit 2nd half but that’s to be expected after so little football this season. Hope Robins starts him against Stoke in 2 weeks.

Can't believe some of the comments on here. Palmer has been an excellent signing. Last season Pearson didn't play him, it wasn't because of injury. Therefore it did take him a while to gain full fitness here, but even when he still wasn't 100% you could see the class and creativity he brought to...

If we are to make the play offs, we need both of these to lose form. I think Blackburn, Boro and Norwich will make it.

Yeah, I think that result might actually be to our advantage. They'll come at us instead of looking for a scrappy 1-0 win, and that will leave space for our counter attacks. Have a feeling we might maul them. 0-3 City.

Let's be honest, If O'Hare, Palmer, Allen and Tavares were fit Walker would not be in the squad. From all accounts Walker was close to a move away in January but got injured. If the above were fit, it would be Vik as the lone man with 2 AM's behind him (out of Allen, Palmer & O'Hare), with...

Agree with that

Yeah Robins sang his praises after the game at the CBS. Would be an excellent signing. McInally too, and I am wondering if Blaine Rowe may be looked at for understudy to Dabo next season, with Eccles & Burroughs also available to fill in at RWB in a crisis.

Any news on Palmer? Would hope he'll also be back by early April
