Let’s not kid ourselves as brilliant as we were yesterday, and we were magnificent, Wolves would beat us most weeks. We have seen that with how the promoted teams have coped this season. Wolves didn’t have their first 4 first team attackers …. This was a big part of why they looked so toothless

Well the players reaction to Lawrence looked genuine and heartfelt …. Making a mockery of the insider view that they hated his training !

I know it was Comic Relief last night but Godden starting would be a bigger act of charity

If he signs for city on £25k a week for 3 years plus his signing on fee I don’t think any of us need to worry about what COH will do when he retires from football at 35 ! This phrase was true when the likes of Micky Gynn had to go o to normal jobs post football but the monumental spike in...

This “it’s a short career” rhetoric is of course largely no longer true. They earn more in that career than most earn in employment for 40 years. Those that look after themselves now play easily into their mid 30’s. This line was true in the 80’s and 90’s when almost all players needed to get...

I really hope not. We should get the best defensive coach we can attract not an appointment based on sentiment.

Do you actually just mean versus Hull and Ipsw ?

Not much of a bet. we have a poor recent track record of bringing academy players through and playing regularly for the first team. Aside from Eccles it’s hard to think of the last one who really made an impact in the last few years. Shipley, Thomas etc were all really lg1 or below players …

Clueless as always

I don’t believe that for a minute.

Every supporter would have accepted our current position at the start of the season. Simms and Hadji may not be in Vik’s league but you can’t argue they are not making a very material contribution:

He’s on £140k a week …. Next

The point is it was a long time ago. This is elite sport. Robins will choose the best candidate not someone because he once worked with them for a couple of years 20 years ago.

How many work colleagues from 20 years ago are you still mates with ?

I don’t believe so, and he certainly wasn’t mates with Adi or Dennis ….

Robins doesn’t normally do the lazy thing and go for a mate so it could be anyone ….

Less the quality more than intensity and quantity was the suggestion
