    Match Thread Southampton - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Dec

    I don't know if there's any accessible stats showing which team has the most shots from outside of the box but we'll be well up there. Sakamoto, Torp and Rudoni are all pretty good from distance. EMC and Grimes aren't shy of an attempt although the ball's trajectory is often nowhere near the goal.

    Match Thread Southampton - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 20th Dec

    We're well above every other team for most shots and shots on target. Difficult to say whether we'll win as they're a good side which is threatening on the attack but I can't see us not scoring against Bazunu. He's only kept 2 clean sheets from his 14 apps. Think his save % sits at just...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    The problem with not going up for them is it's a bit of a wasted season if they don't. They've spent a significant amount of money but they haven't actually built anything. Whereas with us we've nurtured and developed our squad for over two years. Most of their summer signings haven't worked or...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    At this stage I can see Birmingham missing out on the play-offs quite easily even if they're still only a short reach from the POs. They've been awfully inconsistent this season so far and I don't see that changing particularly. Even Opta predicts them finishing mid-table. We'll see what...

    If he's happy on a pay-per-play in Spoons vouchers then we'll throw our hat in the ring.

    He's definitely fast. Awful technique and has a generally poor understanding of the game and a questionable work rate but he's got pace and power in abundance. Despite most slating him for pretty much everything else - and rightly so - even QPR and Bristol fans do at least attest to that.

    14 win countdown to promotion

    I think 'very strong squad' is a stretch to be honest. Outside of Fatawu and James no one else particularly stands out. Monga and Page are obviously talented young players. The amount they've paid for certain players such as Daka to use an extreme example distorts people's perception of their...

    14 win countdown to promotion

    I wouldn't include Leicester in that list. They're hardly pulling up trees anyway even without the points deduction and given how they're currently being financed, I'm expecting further sales to be made in January, with very little incomings other than a loan or two.

    14 win countdown to promotion

    Don't think AFCON will affect Watford as much as previously thought. Louza has been left out of Morocco's squad.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Upon tactical instruction to offer an extra body in attack when we're chasing a goal and looking to overload their back line, as he's very good aerially and poses a physical threat.... he hasn't got a bad shot on him either. That still doesn't at all make him the right choice in the event all...

    I'm frankly amazed you're bothering to post after your sensational claim that we should be playing Thomas as a striker.

    14 win countdown to promotion

    No one has said anything about settling for mediocrity? It's pointing out the likely minimum points needed which for us means a lot of leeway between now and the end of the season.

    14 win countdown to promotion

    Yeah based on PPG I'd be astounded if 90 was needed. None of the current top 6 bar us and Boro have shown they can go on a serious run. A club within the top 6 currently would have to win both of their games up until Game Week 24 then get 50 points across the remaining half season to reach that...

    Our next major appointment

    Rather than being determined not to go for him I think it's more that while he's under contract at Newcastle the FA just simply wouldn't be able to afford his existing wages, nor his release clause.

    Oh really. I wouldn't be shocked. He's one of those "but if he came good" type players which some managers will get tempted by.

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    If you're looking to hit teams on the counter, which Bristol did, then naturally he's going to cause problems as that level of pace and power is always going to pose a threat. But being that technically inept will make even your more better games look pretty crap - average in the grand scheme...

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    He was a handful at times, but his end product was very poor. I wouldn't really recommend basing his entire ability off a relatively OK performance. His all round play 'can' be good but a big part of that is because he's both ridiculously physical and quick. Technically he's very limited and...

    Well maybe you'll manage it one day. Maybe start with the FB lot first, they're more within your IQ range.
