    Oh did he. Thought he was still concussed. Haven't been able to keep up with the results as usual. Work has been chaos.

    Match Thread Birmingham City

    McFadz has to come in for this one. Rose has been calamitous since his return from injury. I'd like to see a partnership of Godden and Walker if the former is back from injury. Great finish by Walker last time out against Watford, hopefully we can see more of the same from him. If DaCosta is...

    Investment

    I think it's a lottery because it's not necessarily as simple as looking at who tops the table in incurring the most losses. As proven by the Wigan fiasco. Don't get me wrong, it's certainly an indicator, but in my opinion it's whether a club's owners have the means or drive to continue pumping...

    I don't think we're quite that desperate yet.

    Defence

    I have to say I agree. Yet I feel this has gone under the radar at times. For instance, I remember his ratings against Reading in particular were baffling considering he was arguably at the very least at partial fault for both goals conceded. McFadz certainly has a mistake in his remit as we...

    To be fair it's conditional on certain criteria being met. So, technically we're not completely bound to the purchase agreement. I'm not entirely sure and I'll admit I can only speculate. He may not have had the cash on hand to buy as the budget was drying up and a proportion of the Callum...

    Robins comments only refer to 'certain criteria being met'. But given how these deals are usually structured, yes I presume that a permanent transfer is dependant on number of games played.

    Isn't it an obligation to buy?

    I think it's a tad speculative to say he wasn't going to score, as it wasn't an impossible angle to score from. But Marosi certainly would have had a far better chance of saving his attempt than trying to save his penalty.

    Goals Against

    I agree and disagree with this. Yes, over the course of a game the defence isn't necessarily poor, however you just can't excuse that on average we're conceding 2 goals per game. So, personally I find it difficult to know where to stand with the defence. I think without stating the obvious the...

    Match Thread Nottingham Forest

    I think the great thing about our squad is that the never say die attitude has been instilled throughout the squad and regardless of a player's age or experience they all have a complete understanding of what is expected by Robins - especially in the event when we might find themselves on the...

    Match Thread Nottingham Forest

    It wouldn't surprise me if McFadzean came back into the fold. Forest have experience and quality in abundance so I feel we need someone to lead the line to ensure we remain totally focused, as whilst they're finding difficulty in scoring goals at the minute there's no question that they have the...

    Match Thread Brentford Match Thread

    The current model relative to our turnover doesn't quantify for salaries of circa £15k+ required to bring in established Championship players though. The gulf that's been created between L1/L2 and the Championship is ridiculous and as such the leap was always going to be a challenge for us both...

    Fridays deadline

    Lets get a bit of perspective and calm. We're certainly not 'being left behind' because we're not opting to sign players on £20k per week. Also, with regards to the signings, they're hardly 'cracking deals' are they. Jack Marriott's best tally in the Championship is 13 goals and last season he...

    A great player if fit but he hasn't played a full season for the best part of 5 years. Not exactly one to rely on.

    Not particularly something that we should wish for, or be relying upon, but further points deductions are probably going to be handed out over the next few months as well.

    Yeah it is. You have to feel for him if he isn't sent out on loan as bar an injury crisis/several suspensions his game time is going to be limited at best.

    Personally I don't believe that he's been mismanaged, I think the situation he now finds himself is just as a result of unfortunate circumstance. I'm sure initially there was a plan in place for his development but last season couldn't have gone worse for him. He started well in pre-season, then...

    Whilst Brentford paid a premium, Toney was a good buy and should make up at least some of the difference. Whether he'll totally fill Watkins' shoes initially with regards to goals remains to be seen but he's certainly capable of hitting the 15-20 mark at this level. Looking at who they've...
