    Bad joke corner

    I spend my spare time eating watches... It's very time consuming.

    Paddy Kenny - The Best Goalkeeper In The Championship?

    Anybody see the save he made tonight? It was good but I have seen Westwood make saves a hell of a lot better and not have the praise reaped upon him Kenny got tonight!

    Ricoh or Highfield Road

    I can understand the psychological argument about not seeing success or even a sustained period of good football at the Ricoh and as such doesn't quite feel like home, but I don't necessarily buy into it. The Ricoh is a fantastic looking stadium, the pitch is in good condition for most of the...

    Clarke. again!

    Thorn obviously wants all of his back 4 to be ball playing defenders including the middle two and I agree with what Nonleague was saying in this sense - I disagree about Wood however. I think he is capable of playing football from centre back, he will not make attacking runs forward etc as Keogh...

    Marlon King

    I 100% agree. I had some idiot who sat behind me at Highfield road who consistently called Davenport 'Davidson' for half the season until he was eventually corrected! It is also an awkward one with those who come and constantly criticise - on the one hand they seem absolutely moronic in the...

    Cranie

    Spoke to him and aron last night, the two relevant things from the conversation were; 1) Neither were fans of AB, which adds some weight to the theory he had lost the dressing room. 2) Cranie is definitely staying around next season, and wants to play centre back with Ben Turner. For me...

    Poll: Ann Lucas v Marlon King.

    Oh yes, he was sporting a few gold teeth too! Nice enough person though.

    Gary Deegan

    He is more of a ball winner/box to box than a playmaker, although this isn't to say he has no ability in this department. Spoke to him today, "highly unlikely" we will see him before the end of the season.

    Jordan Clarke

    I don't think anybody has jumped on his back at all. I think a fair summary of the thread is he started poorly and then grew into the game, hardly words to destroy or alienate any professional. The Arsenal fan issue is nothing either, just some people correcting errors others had on this...

    McSheffrey - We need City's support.

    Brilliant finish for the first goal! Had a busy game today, best I have seen him play for a while, not quite there as he was a few years ago, but if he can build on today he will be there soon.

    Poll: Ann Lucas v Marlon King.

    Easily Marlon, whatever off field issues he has, everything he does on the field is a class above most in this division. Even today when at times his touch was abit sloppy for him, everyone knows he is capable of changing a game. Also met his dad today - an interesting character!

    Which is our best defensive two? assuming all fit...

    I would trust all of those are CB, this is the one position we have strength in depth. I opted for Turner and Cranie however, with Wood/McPake coming close. I like Cameron and he has a big future here but he is a little raw at the minute. The issue with Cranie at RB with Wood and Turner at CB...

    Protest

    The SISU Lies banner was up at the start of the game foe about 2/3 minutes until the stewards made them take it down. They had it up again for the last ten minutes however and nobody made them take it down then. There was also about 3 possibly 4 people left at the end towards the scoreboard...

    david bell

    With him and Clingan dictating play and spreading passes right and left we will, and did today, look a completely different outfit. Always been a fan of his, even in his Rushden days, was growing disillustioned with his performances here, but today playing more central and not necessarily...

    Jordan Clarke

    Agreed he definitely started shaky and first half there were occasions where he seemed to hide from the ball. Some of his passes were wayward and he looked indecisive at times with the ball. On the other hand; he grew into the game more as it went on, positionally was improved from previous...

    McSheffrey - We need City's support.

    Perhaps under Thorns new attacking mentality we will start to see the McSheff of old.

    Roland Nilsson appointed manager

    Wages would have been too high for our board! Plus the draw of champions league football is more attractive than that of League One....

    I am sitting in that bit tomorrow, so I will post on here who is (and in this case of our new board) who is not there!

    Damm you beat me to it!

    Is king available

    More than likely in which case perhaps a bet on a John Eustace hat trick is the better option, although Sky Bet doesn't have any odds for that happening!
