    Reinvesting money

    Not really big money but we sold Paul Furlong and brought in Mick Quinn. We also sold Mick Harford and John Gayle and brought in Dublin, but he was far more expensive and needed the sale of Babb. Selling Huckerby to bring in Keane/Rousell (although again aided by the Boateng sale) and Rousell...

    Chaplin question?

    For Chaplin, I think there's a better player than we've seen so far in there and we're not fully utilising his strengths, but he was brought in to stick the ball in the net and he doesn't seem to be a natural at that. In that respect I think Ponticelli is far better.

    Chaplin question?

    Of course it's great to see long term thinking and investment, but like investing it's a risk-reward strategy. We can get younger players to develop at a lower cost but the risk they won't develop is there. We had a similar strategy when we brought in Bellamy and despite him proving to be a...

    We don't need to know what he's like in the bedroom thanks!

    8 without a win now in all comps. Only two draws in that, both at home

    If Baka got dropped from this squad for how he played last week then JCH really should get the same treatment next week, but MR won't. He's just scored the penalty so that's secured his place until new year. If we pull off a comeback then it'll be a completely unfair result, but then so was...

    Thinking maybe Allassani and Thomas out wide for Shrewsbury?

    Fair play to anyone who went to watch this tripe in this weather. They've earned their tipple of choice tonight.

    Lots to be said for a lucky manager though. 'Arry made an entire career out of it.

    Like that amazing 0-0 home draw Coleman achieved with all-out defense against Swansea when they were the lowest scorers in the division.

    Sounds like the crowd is starting to get a bit narked at the display. Just inviting pressure at 2-0 down.

    Liked the comment, but I don't want anyone to think I'm even contemplating getting rid of MR. He does have a decent record, but I do find his lack of willingness to change things and defensive mindset infuriating at times.

    Willis going off to protect an injury? He's always got some sort of niggle and this weather and the scoreline means we might as well get him off to stop him doing more damage
