    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.

    Retained list

    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.

    Retained list

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

    Max

    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.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Pressing like on that does't seem right. What a horrific thing to happen. Glad he's getting some help now. My ex worked in mental health. Cuts were made (as part of the top down reorganisation Cameron promised wouldn't happen) which they knew would impact on the ability to provide the server...

    Pre-Season Friendlies? - L1 Title Celebration?

    Unless we're playing a 'name' then playing a pre-season game at the Ricoh with about 1K people there isn't going to be great. Would rather do what we have done the last few years and play at Nuneaton. Small crowd in there and you can still have a decent atmosphere. Shame the Butts pitch is...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Three of the six were candidates giving false information so not something voter ID would prevent. One was for someone trying to take the ballot box, again voter ID would do nothing. So that leaves a whole two cases. We must deal with this massive problem urgently and spend a huge amount of...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Would he want it? A party divided that's miles behind or stay in Manchester where he's won by a landslide?
