    I think you’re misunderstanding my use of ‘great’, and also suggesting I’m saying he’s as good at Hutchinson, which I’m not. You have to think about the context. We signed him as a back up striker when we were in League 2. Aside from Kelly and Shipley, he’s the only player who has regularly...

    Great player for us, should be remembered fondly for his contribution. He did better than I expected this season and at one point he looked like he was really getting going, but missed a few big chances at key moments , and I think that was Robins’ mind made up. Don’t understand the slandering...

    Eisa definitely no better than Godden or Walker. If we're going to sign a striker we need someone who's a physical presence and can link play (assuming Biamou is off)

    Keogh awarded £2.3m against Derby

    Yeah, I’m sure Keogh made some bad decisions that night, but Derby hung him out to dry in a callous, stupid and obviously cynical fashion.

    Gustavo Hamer

    Tough one with Gus - don’t think he can get more than a few million on the basis that he ended the season poorly and subsequently the stats aren’t that compelling. Plus he’s only got two more years left on his contract. If we had three years, I’d say let him perform this season and prove he’s...

    21/22 season expectations

    Next season could be a more competitive division. Hull and Posh look better set than Wycombe and Rotherham, and no one has had the points deduction, albeit that could happen. I’d be fine with staying around where we are now - upper bottom half. All you want is to show signs of progress and...

    Would be great if that’s the case!

    Wilson - 6 - not good enough long term but think he’s done ok, deserves some credit. He’s decisive, knows when to just get rid, and I think the defence were better with him. Dabo - 4 - disappointing, never fully fit, expect him to really get going next season and get back to his best Rose - 4...

    Eccles

    Haven’t seen enough of him really. Unless he’s going to get a lot of minutes next season then another loan could be good for him. He’s 21 now and can’t afford to be sat on the bench too often.

    Of course but at what risk, playing time is everything

    Sam Mccallum

    If he’s going back on loan to the championship, then unless a promotion chasing team, who are going to guarantee that he’s a starter then why wouldn’t Norwich send him here? He’s settled, playing, and improving

    Sam Mccallum

    Yeah I'd agree with that. He's just brilliant, full throttle player with a great mentality, physically ticks every box - stepped up the levels no problem, and only 20!

    Sam Mccallum

    Such nonsense about McCallum - got every chance of playing PL footy at some point. In his first season in the champ at 20 years old and he's played loads, looked good, and is way above the mean when looking at defensive stats. This season, for me, there were two players who demonstrate the...

    Announcement on Ricoh future today - The Coventry Building Society Arena

    Their CEO was previously CEO at Principality - so he's got some form in this area! It's entirely a brand awareness move, should get them more national coverage. Not sure whether it's more cost effective than some TV and digital marketing though. Be a great move if we end up in the PL in the...

    Peterborough

    A moot point. If he’d stayed he wouldn’t have had the opportunities to be the player he is now. You can blame Robins (I’m sure he does himself) but no one else saw it either, Bristol Rovers got lucky. That said, quality player, wish we had him now. But none of what’s happened would have...

    21/22 Summer transfer mega-thread

    In my view he (Jones) was championship level when he got injured, made a mockery of L2. He’s got technical ability most players in the football league could only dream of. 3 huge injuries, next to no football for four years - would be pretty much unprecedented if he did come back and have a...

    Most surprising player this year.

    Agree on that. Had a few bad moments, misses, passes, etc. However his performance levels have generally been right up there, he's battered some championship CBs. Not sure he looks any worse/better in the champ than he did in L2

    Not sure Pask will ever do it, been fit enough times for Robins to give him a go, and he hasn’t.
