If the officials let that go he is opening the game up for a free for all. That is the sort of challenge that could severely injure an opponent and player’s safety is paramount above anything else.

And we know that how? Only person who does is Thomas in reality.

Yep-your opinion of course, but you asked why the assistant wouldn’t get involved did you not and that is what I was trying to explain?

Bit nieve there I’d say. So do players not do that? 🤔

Na, before the game a referee a Referee will give his assistants specific instructions around penalties that would probably include “If you see anything on your side of the penalty area please get involved. Anything from the penalty spot to the far side of the area I’ll deal with”

Everyone going around in circles regarding this. Does anyone think that Thomas knew exactly what he was doing by doing a crafty follow through on KDH? I think Thomas knew exactly what he was doing-took a gamble and unfortunately it caught up with him. McFadz is the type of no nonsense player...

The Assistant who is on the far side 40-50 yards away has a better view than the referee who is 10 yards away? Hmmmm.

I still maintain we will be just short and early doors was happy that it was a transition this season and a mid table finish would be fine. We couldn’t could we………,…,,,,?

I thought that he was a poor replacement initially when Gurney fell out with everyone and thought it best to move on, but Clive has surpassed him a long time ago and really now is the voice of the Sky Blues. It’s probably also helped that Linnell retired aswell.

Doesn’t Dewsberry Hall do it after scoring for Leicester?

Good shout! Forgot about that one. 👍

Which is the most likely outcome. If he does decide to wait till the summer, as long as he keeps doing what he is doing and doesn’t take his foot off the gas, he will go with my best wishes if and when he departs. Compare his contribution to some of the dossers we have had to put up with and...

It’s a great league the Championship and is really like a Premier League 2 (with the big name teams in it) but more competitive. As long as we are competing, which we now are at the right end, I wouldn’t mind if it took us another 10 years to make it back to the Premier League but think we will...

We were talking about the best/most important signings after the match on Saturday and the likes of Doyle/McNulty/Kelly/O’Hare/McFadz/Godden/Vic/Hamer are all quite rightly mentioned. Sheaf always gets forgotten about in this regard.

Surprised nobody mentioned this.

It was an easy gig yesterday for Da Silva as there was no attacking threat for that period down his side to defend-this we know is one of his flaws, but did well for his cameo. Bidwell is an experienced campaigner and you know what you get with him-reliable-solid and the attacking basis is on...

McFadz in the last minute 👌⚽️

Particularly the manager. I remember when he first came back and we were at a fans meeting with him at Warwick University. I asked him what has he got that others didn’t have (managers) when trying to clean the corridors of the cancer and stench of negativity and losing mentality that has...

Wish I had a ticket for this now. Have our own game on the Saturday so was happy to go to the cup game the week after but now that’s obviously on the Friday night which means no Cigar again. 😩

It’s hardly surprising when there was only 6-7000 rattling around in the dark days of Sisu that there was no real affinity with the Ricoh/CBS. We are now averaging 25,000 and everyone is pulling in the same direction-what a difference that makes. Wonder if people still prefer St Andrews…..
