How does that work then? You have a Birmingham team in both competitions or will Birmingham Bears now revert to Warwickshire?

I don't really get it. Surely they'll have to play at the existing cricket grounds? Not like in Australia where they could use AFL stadiums so could do things like having a second Melbourne team. If you have, for example, a Midlands team and they play at Edgbaston will fans of the other...

Wins for Luton, Accrington, Wycombe (against Swindon), Notts County, Mansfield and Lincoln with Exeter's match postponed. Not a good night for us to say the least.

Not sure on this. I'd be tempted to drop a fair number of players to, depending on who it is, give them a rest to get over injury / illness or give them a kick to pull their finger out. The problem with that is the lack of squad depth. You don't really want to put out a very inexperienced team...

Post Xmas slump - check Conceding late winners - check Much more like we're used to.

Was getting worried we weren't going to have our annual post xmas slump but it looks like its well and truly here, Tactically things just aren't working and we're seeing no reaction from the players. Surely with the way the first half of the season went Robins hasn't lost the dressing room...

If we go up one of the key things will be the budget. I can't imagine they'll whack ticket prices up or that we'll suddenly have thousands of extra season ticket holders so the depressing reality is if we manage to get up we'll have a budget not too different to this season.

Its things like that, free kicks and throw ins that drive me mad. You know they will be coming in a match so prepare. Remember they always used to say about Beckham that he'd stay after training and just practice taking free kicks, doubt any of our lot do.

What we should do is employ 4 managers and then swap every couple of months. Problem solved.

We have a solitary Wasps fan where I work but he is like a 1 man PR machine regurgitating everything that comes out from Wasps. Today he was strangely silent, normally can't wait to start up when we've lost. Seems he's not in a good mood as "we're letting all our best players go as we haven't...

And that's just 3 key players in the last few months before you even consider the impact of losing Jones and Andreu.

Just had a look at various managers win %. It doesn't make good reading! Robins 49.00 Slade 18.75 Mowbray 34.67 Pressley 32 Robins 51.52 Thorn 18.37 Boothroyd 30.77 Coleman 29.06 Dowie 40.82 Adams 33.33 Reid 32.26 Black 45.45 McAllister 27.63 Nilsson 44.19 Strachen 32.71 Atkinson 25.68 Neal...

Big game for us. Apart from Wycombe v Swindon everyone above is playing a team below them they should beat so we need a win or we could find ourselves 5 points outside the play off places. Shame there's midweek games this week. Looks like the squad could have done with 2 or 3 days off which...

Not a bad idea, nobody can moan at a quid a ticket.

Correct

Its a conference to elect the BAME, Disabled, LGBT and Women's Officers for Young Labour.

Robins said he was injured and would be out for a while. Don't think there was any more detail on what he's done.

Yesterday was a terrible performance, there's no avoiding that. However we're 2 points off the play offs and 6 off the autos with 15 games to go so sacking the manager, getting rid of half the squad and starting yet another rebuild seems premature. Wonder how many L2 sides have squads that...

SkyDome is 4K but they only have about 1 gig a year! The facilities are there the promoters need to work on getting gigs booked. If the council and / or city of culture can help with that then great. Building a new venue when little use is made of the ones we have seems a waste of money. Would...
