    Tomorrow night, I want to hear.....

    Don Mckay is a football genius

    Would you start Leon on Friday?

    He has to play 1) if he does well he might be persuaded that staying with us is his best option - dropping him to the bench is hardly likely to do that. 2) if he's going to leave we need to inflate not deflate the price 3) from a football point of view we can't afford not to play him anyway.

    Buy Nuneaton Town ?

    Respond to the exile of our club into another county by appropriating (or stealing) someone else's? Even worse to suggest that we do it to put pressure on our owners.

    The silver lining

    hardly the same period, you came back at exactly the same time that valiant lost interest it seems.

    Arsenal v CCFC - on TV maybe ??

    A terrestrial TV channel that doesn't have PL rights and, it has just been announced also lost rights to the so-called Champions so called league, might indeed pick an all Prem tie.

    I think it is the right time to discuss this

    Butcher, Mackay, Howe, McAllister, Thorn - all terrible. Worse though in my view was Aidy Boothroyd

    Remember when he left for Sheffield Utd on deadline day in August?

    Anybody know why Carlisle on a Thursday night

    "Perhaps the legacy of Andy’s tenure at Coventry will be that he successfully acquired numerous players on free transfers, all of whom soon became considerable assets to the club (most of whom were sold on promptly), such as Jordan Henderson, Jack Cork, Danny Fox, Scott Dann, Keiron Westwood...

    Bothroyd sacked

    Pausing only to kill all the first borns and cancel Christmas? No need to wear a tin foil hat here. Nothing to do with the Northampton board, our board or the curse of SISU. A manager who has had one game plan all his career got sacked after that plan was worked out by the entire division his...

    Swindon match thread

    Or like Robbie Keane did when he scored the goal for Leeds in a 1-0 loss at Elland Road in our relegation season (cartwheels, badge kisses, and finger guns) - marked contrast to his subsequent behaviour against us as a Spurs player.

    Private Eye...silence

    As a strategy that's completely useless. It doubles rather than halves the number of people who might take action against you. It's probably more sensible to think that the first two articles were critical of the club owners who have done plenty wrong and deserve criticism. The second two...

    Private Eye...silence

    Today's is the fourth article about our club. The first two were critical of the owners and in the "in the back" section, the last two have been critical of the landlords and have been in the "rotten boroughs" section.

    Reid vs Moussa yesterday

    Reid was excellent and belied the notion that all Bradford did was hoof it forward to their Clive Platt figure up front. While I'm here that "mouss is on fire" chant was cringeworthy (and probably in poor taste at Valley Parade). Interesting to see Bradford fans also sing the "Take Me Home...

    vs Sheff Utd player ratings

    So no-one wants to dock a point off either/both Fleck or/and Baker for letting a straight drive go straight through them while standing in the wall? Just as bad as letting a bloke get a free header for the second and the general panic of the last 30 minutes doesn't happen without the first goal.

    Best Away Atmosphere

    Errington Kelly. I remember him playing for about half a season with AP Leamington in about 1981. played against his brother once in the Cov minor league about the same time.
