Who is he and what position does he play?

Yes, I’m referring specifically to that incidenct. Poor kick from Burge which put us under pressure. However, had we conceded from that, it would’ve also been negligence from the defence as well. Hence, the defence mopped up the danger. It’s tough being a goalkeeper. You’re always in the...

Disagree. His kicking at times put us under pressure, but I think if we concede from that, you’d have to blame the outfielders if anything came of it. Nothing really came of any of his miskicks nor were they in dangerous positions. Contrast that with Cambridge’s GK, who got tackled by McNulty...

Really? I didn’t rate him, he looked a bit unfit, and he lost out aerially to both our centrebacks. However, he did exploit Stokes, when he crafted his 1st half chance.

Agreed. Take a game like Chesterfield away, even from the highlights, he dominated the game. But, he just had no luck that. Fast forward to last night and the few games before, he’s being a dominant player for us. I think he could’ve been as good as he is now, with Jones in the team and frankly...

No one else is linked with a move? Apart from Jodi Jones to Leeds or Bayliss, what other even noteworthy rumours have you heard? Willis was in the summer, we were ‘bracing’ for bids for McDonald. Before the January window, we apparently needed a ‘goal scoring’ striker because McNulty wasn’t a...

If Wolves want him that much, they can wait until the summer. I think our efforts should be going towards signing that striker Robins wants. This morning/last night, he said we don’t need to sell to bring anyone in. So why sell Stevenson? Yes, he might not be playing much, but if we lose Bayliss...

As much as I think Doyle has been a revelation, I think extending his contract boils down to where we are playing our football next year. If we get promoted, I don't think we should renew his contract. I say this because I feel like we'd have to change the way we play tactically and L1 would...

He had one good opportunity all game and he was largely contained I thought. When he got subbed off you could see him holding his head in his hands. That’s pretty telling to me.

Said to my little brother, I bet the attendance here tonight is less than our away support against MK. That’s bad. That said, I didn’t go to MK myself.

Burge, 6 - good punches and made a very good save first half, but some of his kicking was a bit off Grimmer, 7 - defended well and linked up well with Bayliss and Vincenti Davies, 7 - won his aerial battles and looked assured at the back McDonald, 6 - didn’t look as assured as Davies, but he won...

I personally thought it was a booking, he may or may not of slipped, but he did take their player out in a good crossing position. Biamou and McNulty playing v well, Bayliss has looked a class act (first time seeing him today) and Burge made a v good save. We look pretty solid.

Read the telegraph’s preview, they’ve got injuries to key players, including the player that got 2 assists versus us, they’ve struggled to score away of late... so it’s a game we’ll probably lose.

I think we line up with the following: Burge Grimmer Willis McDonald Stokes Bayliss Kelly/Stevenson - Kelly if still 100% fit Doyle Barrett Biamou McNulty

Which reminds me, I was at the Butts for the Cov RFC game, and they had a one minutes applause for Regis too. It was nice to see fans of all sports come together to applaud the legend of our city.

From MR’s comments, to me, it’s apparent to me he doesn’t rate Thomas. Telling a player they need to ‘reinvent’ himself, then loaning him out to Sutton and then Solihull, it doesn’t look good for his future at our club.

A weak link? He was their 3rd highest scorer with 9 goals. The only midfielder we had who was scoring goals is injured, and whilst everyone is fixated on needing a ‘Number 9’, we’ve forgotten that only Doyle has scored more than 1 league goal who is fit... If you lean too heavily on your...

Ideally, I’d like to sign a new striker, I think we’re sound everywhere else, good enough to win promotion. The thing is, we need to shift out some bodies before we can bring in players. You mention Beavon, but I think the priority is to offload Thomas and Reid first. My impression is that’s...

In that scenario, and on a 6mth contract, I think it’d be a win-win for us. A midfielder who hit in and around 10 goals last season, and we’re lacking goals in midfield and defence. He also offers the option of playing behind the striker, making MR’s favoured 4-2-3-1 a viable option once again...

I’d say we’re equal in size to Sheffield United. Mind, I only knew what was going on with the club (loosely) in our first season in Division 1. Our 7th place finish under Micky Adams’ is my most memorable season to date. Let that sink in for some you older folk haha.
