We've never had a keeper so comfortable on the ball - it shows how much of the role of the keeper has evolved over the years. I could be wrong but I don't think I've seen Marosi kick it long out of hand this season. Always looking to build patiently from the back vs. launching it long. I...

I think it's an interesting debate on JCH. Our possession game this season has improved since the first half of last season. JCH suffered last season as we seemed to be launching long balls up to him pretty frequently; never felt that was his strong point. Our current style would suit him...

Don't be a total idiot as always BackRoom. Irish Sky Blue (one of the most reasoned posters on here) has not claimed that at all.

A Agreed. Just not sure how to fit in the 3 above + O’Hare? Possible team when everyone is fit? Marosi Dabo - McFaz - Hyam - Mason Allen Kelly Walsh O’Hare Godden Jones Pretty harsh on Hiwula/Shipley and Jobello to be left out. Nice to have this problem though - for the last couple of...

Got it!!

So not only are the Legion/Fellatio beating up the other lot - they are robbing them as well? Hooliganism combined with pickpocketing - it’s a whole new dimension.

Not sure about the 'robbed blind'. We played them off the park after half time with some fantastic football from highly talented players. Now if we'd won last week Liquid Gold, I would have agreed that we had robbed the opposition. Not today.

Agree with everything Pete 100% except that O'Hare is far too good not to start. The only question (as I think you are also hinting at) is in what position.

Agree 57 with all your points. Except I'd give O'Hare a 9. Big influence every time he had the ball, always looking for the ball even in tight spaces, technically brilliant, fast and made Blackpool further retreat as soon as he came on.

In my current dream team I'd like to see Kelly, Allen, Walsh, O'Hare on the pitch at the same time (once Kelly is fit). How would Robins accommodate this? I guess for once it's a great problem too have - class ball players in midfield. O'Hare is different class and too good for this level...

Really enjoying this second half performance. O'Hare looks absolute class after coming on as well.

CCFC every time. I feel a little disconnected with the English team as I only have a passing interest in the Premiership these days. Sometimes new players are picked by England and I have honestly never even heard of them. Back in 1990 as an example it was very different - I had knowledge of...

I would say that with the budget that Big Ron had - he completely blew it.

Thanks for the second laugh of the day PCH. :emoji_thumbsup:

To be fair 'Ten Bags Bayliss' always makes me laugh - so for that alone I'm ok with this thread. Obviously not fair on Tom as he didn't invent the 10 Bags tag line but still hilarious.

Exactly shmeee. Never cease to be amazed by the need for a boo boy. And how excited some fans get when their latest boo boy 'fails to perform'. The most remarkable thing about Baka as the latest boy boo is that he's not even really featuring in our first team. Robins has already made that...

Who was there the following year August 1996? Chelsea 2 Coventry 0. From memory the opening Chelsea goal was scored directly after a blatant foul against us; seen by everyone in the stadium except of course the officials. Even Chelsea looked embarrassed that it was allowed to stand. I...

I'm very relaxed about this game. Interesting to see a few players who I haven't seen much of. Good chance for others to get fully match fit - McFaz and O'Hare. Don't really care that much about the result to be honest and in a season in which I hope there will be lots of high pressure games -...

I'm beyond embarrassed for you to be honest Fellatio at this point. I'm genuinely starting to feel sorry for you. Enjoy the match. Over and out.

That's fair and point taken. I will always stand up though for players who I feel are being personally abused unfairly and in a damaging way.
