    Baker is just the "grass is always greener" see DKE x 2, Ponticelli before they were actually on the pitch for a few games. 1-1 for me. McNumpty Peanut or whatever his name is these days

    Match Thread Coventry City v Luton Match Thread Tuesday 13th March

    On the mark. All we know about Robbins tells that he in a vital game he will not play anything other than Doyle / Kelly, not least because Luton are such free scorers. Bayliss in the centre too risky. For the same reason I would go with Stokes / Reid on left rather than Haynes / Reid favoured...

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    That was my feeling. Too many teams have to have their form implode for such a relatively modest team as we have to be able to get to the auto spots.

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    autos requires too many teams who have otherwise played well this season to now suddenly play badly. It could happen, but unlikely. Nor is our team good enough man for man to win a high enough % of games (and Robbins is too defensively minded)

    Wycombe Vlog

    hmmm another time that would have been an easy save

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    This is the most optimistic spin you can put on it. You could just as easily argue the opposite for each - Wycombe and Notts C bound to recover after a wobble etc etc As there are 6 teams chasing 4 places the odds are at least 3 of the five other than ourselves will maintain some kind of form...

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    No the other fixtures matter a lot unless you are run away leaders. We are in a highly competitive situation with 6 chasing 4 places. We are still not playing very well, - check the mismatch between what is being said during games on here, and the player ratings should we win.We are more than 3...

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    "no easy fixtures" = cliche, you can do better than that. if you were an exeter fan you would expect to beat Chesterfield, even though they are showing signs of resistance. Merely if you go thro the games and apply a reasonable logic knowing that correct / incorrect are likely to balance out...

    So... Saturday's fixtures

    If you look at all March's fixtures it could be well toward the end of the month before we are safely in the play-offs. Exeter have Chesterfield at home above, and in March our rivals have a good number of similarly quite easy games. Exeter have a generally easy run. The one to watch, coming the...

    GW46 - Where we should have V did finish this season

    How do you factor in that with so many clubs in the running - 9 excluding Luton - for 2 places the points requirement may fall? More teams will drop points to fellow contenders. Playing the club that are 10th would usually be seen as a certain win, not this year, it could be Accrington Stanley.

    Another confessions time anyone??

    Go to Wasps as there is a great atmosphere and as I have no affection for the Ricoh per se, It will never be Highfield Road., I think the MK solution to Wimbledon's was the right one - I can't work out why people get so lathered about it. I regard MK as my "second team". Wolves are the real...

    7833toMK.... come on back the lads.

    Well I will make the trip. But then I don't care that much about franchises - football or rugby - they are the way of the world. We are customers of a business - every football fan is. Always thought the MK move made complete sense and I really enjoyed the one day out I have had at Wasps ( it...

    Round 4 : who do you want ?

    In which case I would take any of those. Or even Posh as the Villa result was as statistically unlikely as us winning. A pointless thrashing away to a Prem club away is to be avoided, regardless of the pay day. A run to the 5th Round would be dandy for morale and a little money. For everyone...

    Round 4 : who do you want ?

    It's all about odds. Over time it will even out

    Round 4 : who do you want ?

    Peterborough away. The odds surely favour us being drawn away - we have had 3 in a row at home. Therefore I want the most winnable away game. I think Posh are the lowest ranked team before us still left in. Replay, win at home then drawn again at home against a Prem side, going out with honour...

    Does Robbins chop and change to much?

    Knowl has posted on Twitter about the number of changes made by Robbins being a problem, and a reason for disappointment. Venture to differ V Notts County August 2017: O'Brien: Grimmer Hyam McDonald Stokes: Vincenti Kelly Doyle Jones: McNulty Beavon The ideal starting line-up would have had...
