    That pass over the top of their fullback for Nouble to run on to, where he burst into the box and had his shot saved by their keeper, was played by Conor Thomas. Everyone only remembers that first pass that went straight out of play though, for some reason. It was a dreadful pass, but as I said...

    In your opinion did he make no good passes in the first half?

    Government to back Franchise

    There will be one NFL team in the UK. That will be based in London. There are millions and millions of American football fans in the UK. They will easily fill Wembley with 80,000 fans every other week for home games. Don't like franchising but have to say I will be absolutely thrilled if we...

    Ryan Haynes is still very, very raw. Let me pose another question here. Do we honsetly think Barton would have been able to do what he did yesterday without Thomas there to be the workhorse? Been argued several times that Thomas allows other players to do what they do best. He does the donkey...

    Barton

    What he needs now is consistency. Keep playing like he did yesterday and he'll keep his place, simple as that.

    I cheered the first goal, jumped up and down and punched the air for the sceond and went absolutely crazy for the third. Really, really enjoyed that second half!

    Why not leave it as it is, have Fleck still on the left of midfield and bring Jack Finch into the middle of the park alonsgide Barton.

    The NFL is all about franchising though and it has been that way historically for absolutely decades.

    Cue celebratory parties and open topped bus parades around the streets of Coventry. These will last 3 days and then the following 3 days will be spent scratching heads trying to pin down the next nominated scapegoat for the Orient match.

    They do indeed. Can't see any problem with not rating a player, but still praising him when he does well. Think you will find it is not a sin. I have never rated Barton, for the simple fact that I think he is a player you have to build a team around, his workrate is usually poor, his tackling...

    He did. We played from too deep in the first half and Haynes put in at least 3 crosses over when there was next to no City player even near the penalty area. Because we played a higher line and pressed 2nd half, when the crosses were coming in we had more numbers in the box and we were a lot...

    That's a daft accusation, cos if you read all my posts going back forever and a day, I am not even a fan of his. All I do is to speak out when any player is getting unfair criticism and as with most scapegoats (and Thomas is most certainly that) the dislike towards them becomes so great that...

    Agree and Nouble and McQuoid were playing far too far apart in the first half. 2nd half they played a lot tighter to each other (same with Jackson) too, and we were all the better for it.

    Yes. Again, labels against SP have been that he shows inflexibilty in his systems and that he can't change things. Well, we changed the system yesterday and he changed things at hlaf time too. Hats off to him.

    Better tell that to the rest of the team too then! Why single out Thomas when just about everyone was shit?
