    School Protests

    Will be welcome if it happens, given that the article mentions some of this has been promised since 2017 and hasn't been implemented I'll reserve my praise until then. Have they said why they are introducing it now when in 2017 they voted against it and claimed it was unnecessary as existing...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    To be honest I'd be up for similar restrictions to Australia if that's what it takes. But at the very least get the quarantine in place as soon as the experts say it is needed. How many times do we have to repeat the same mistakes?

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Have you read the article? It quotes Indian doctors saying there's a huge surge in younger patients, with 65% of hospital admissions under 45. Also talks about symptomatic cases in children under the age of 12 when there was virtually none prior to the variant. Of course we need to open back...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Can't see that they would not be going as quickly as possible, what would be the advantage in that? The only time my local centre has stopped vaccinating is when they have got too far ahead of the rest of the country and been told to pause. Guess they don't want any accusations of it being a...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Was thinking the news reports of lockdown being extended due to the B.1.617.2 were just media talk but listening to Cleverly this morning it sounds very much like it could happen. Very much back to the 'following the science' line which they tend to use when something they think will be...

    Stadiums

    They do but equally they spend ridiculous amounts, often often taxpayer money, and class a 20 year old stadium as old and in need of knocking down and replacing! Also have a tendency to put them in the middle of nowhere. Imagine how people who moaning about the Ricoh being out of town would...

    Liam Kelly, Kyle Mcfazdean and Dom Hyam

    I think anyone who is expecting a huge overhaul of the squad is in for a disappointment. Fact is you could do it in L1 / L2 as you were mainly picking up cheap or out of contract players. Not sure you can build a squad of genuine Championship quality players on frees even before you consider...

    Wouldn't be surprised to see that happen before we reach the point where he'd be able to speak with other clubs.

    Marosi

    Got to love a 'news' site that posts things we can all work out are llkely to happen.

    Well we're defiantly going to need a couple of new players coming in up front as its a risk going into the season with just Godden and Walker given how many games they both missed this season.

    Surprised at Wilson given we definitely need a new first choice keeper and Marosi is under contract for another year. Have to hope that they have a move lined up for Marosi and Wilson is staying as backup.

    No surprises there. Wasn't it said that the obligation to buy on Sheaf only kicked in if certain conditions were met?

    He seems a nice enough bloke but some people are going way over the top, and we don't even know for sure he's leaving yet! If he were to stay for me he would need to be, at best, fourth choice, more likely fifth choice. You'd hope that next season those ahead of him wouldn't be missing so many...

    Pre-Season Friendlies? - L1 Title Celebration?

    Is there any events planned for City of Culture that involve the club? That might be an opportunity to invite everyone from the promotion squad.

    Max

    That strikes me as guesswork given we all know there's a very chance he'll be going. Why would he be saying goodbye to everyone today, not like Robins will have them in for training now the season has ended!

    Keogh awarded £2.3m against Derby

    Exactly this. If they'd sacked all of them they'd have an argument but only sacking the one who they perceived to have no value and whose wage they wanted off the books was poor to say the least.

    Gustavo Hamer

    Would like to see Hamer here next season but if silly money is being offered you have to take it but only if, and its a big if, Robins is going to get a decent chunk of anything that comes in to improve the squad.
