Whilst the results are fine, the performances we’ve been getting aren’t going to be beating the better sides. Law of averages says the performances are going to catch up on us. im happy with the start but let’s not pretend we weren’t poor for large parts against Bristol and Stoke in the league...

Might coincide with this medical George Smith alleged

You can jack it in. Brentford did it a few years back. As someone mentioned a few posts back they’ve got one now. there’s really no benefit to an academy these days. Anyone of note is poached

Didn’t we actually win a game at Deepdale in the FA Cup? I’m sure we did in the late 90s

Is theirs Cat 1? Don’t get me wrong - I get the reasons for the categories and your nephew must be a seriously good talent. but outside of that Cat 1 there isn’t much point in having an academy - it must be costing us money now given the compensation system

Good luck to the lad. Does make you wonder if we should just jack in the academy though - run a B-Team like Brentford do and just sign the cast offs when they’re released by the top 6

It’ll be palace or Brighton away. Shit draw - and we’ll get beat

I mentioned this when we were linked my bro in law is a West Brom fan. BTA needs 15 chances to score 1. it’s not going to happen with the small amount of chances we create

Counter attacking probably not the best description. we need to start moving the ball around quicker basically if we pass the ball side to side in front of a wall we’re not going to get anywhere. we’re clearly the better team here, Bassette looks decent, but we’re not going to create much if...

Robins’ desired style is possessional build up. I really don’t like it - it’s slow and cumbersome. the players we have are so much more suited to quicker counter attacking.

It’s clearly an exploit. But you can’t attach an abitrary 3rd opinion as to whether teams have overpaid. a player is worth what another team wishes to pay. ultimately the only way I believe you can stop it is not amortising players value over the contract - if you buy a player for 20m it’s 20m...

I suppose the only thing they can do is ban associated sponsors - but it gets messy when you look at how far you go back on this

it is an exploit. But you can’t dictate to anyone what a sponsorship is worth it’s up to the sponsor on that amount. It’s the same as the new transfer exploit. If a team wants to pay 30m for a player - you can’t say… “you can’t do that the player is only worth 6m” Obviously there’s some real...

The overvalue thing is stupid aswell. If I was a billionaire and wanted to sponsor Coventry for 2 billion - who are the premier league to tell me what my sponsorship is worth. I also read apparently there’s a lot of charges in that 115 that are standard minor charges are nothing more than a...

I don’t disagree - Hamer is one of if not the best player in the league. O’Hare is class - we will sorely miss his drives

O’Hare will be one of their best players

Dovin 7 - MOTM - not fully convinced by him yet. But his saves kept us in it today MVE 6 Latibeudiere 7 Binks 7 Bidwell 5 Eccles 5 Torp 5 sakamoto 5 Rudoni 5 Wright 5 - on my own on this one. I thought Wright was very poor today. Gone from top class on Friday to this performance today...

Nobody can convince me that playing out of the back is a practical way of playing.

Be daylight robbery if we get anything from this

I feel like robins sets up as a patient possession based team. We’re always too slow in the build up. we need to be more direct - not long ball but quicker and more vertical. I find we’re a better side when we’re playing on the counter
