    No PLAN B

    Hindsight I know, but these away games where we've taken the lead recently would have been a perfect opportunity to change to a back 5 to shore things up. We certainly don't seem to have made it very hard for the opposition to get back into these games.

    Just A Blip?

    I'm remaining positive. We only need a point a game to make the play offs!

    Match Thread Queens Park Rangers - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 31st Jan

    In any season successful teams will at some point see a dip in form, and there can be a myriad of reasons for that. In our instance there has been a combination of injuries (BTA/ Rudoni), suspensions (Thomas/ Dasilva), sickness (MVE/ Torp/ Saka) and form (Grimes/ Wright) at a time of an intense...

    Asante 3 match ban incoming

    I'm not sure if Norwich will or won't report him, but I do think them winning the game makes it a little less likely that they will. It's the same as when a ref makes a bad decision in a game you win, whereby the manager is then less likely to be critical, than in a game where the bad decision...

    Video BTS for Jahnoah Markelo signing. ✍️

    1.81m is 5ft 11. I know because that's my height, although it has been known for me to occasionally claim I'm 6ft :)

    Is Wolfie to go down , as our most expensive flop ?

    I think you are right now I think about it and that Borrows signed the following year. Gould signed Kirk Stephens that 2nd Summer he was in charge.

    Is Wolfie to go down , as our most expensive flop ?

    Am sure I read that the Lloyd signing also resulted in us having to sell Mortimer to Villa to balance the books, who also became a European Cup winner.

    Is Wolfie to go down , as our most expensive flop ?

    When Bobby Gould first came to manage us he bought in Peake, Bennett, Gynn, Adams, Pearce, Platnauer and Gibson, then Oggy and Borrows the next season too, but ironically the marquee signing that cost the most money in that first Summer was Ashley Grimes who was awful.

    Transfer Rumour Jahnoah Markelo

    You seem a little obsessed with Sakamoto!

    It will be the new Sutton

    It's the hope that kills you! I was really gutted last night like many on here but its ridiculous really when you think about it though. We have been through so many poor seasons where we became almost desensitised to losing games and just accepted our fate. In those days we would have jumped at...

    Asante 3 match ban incoming

    I can't remember now if the BTA incident was before or after we took the lead, but I think there's every chance that if he had been sent off we would not actually have lost the game, as we would have then set ourselves up more defensively and wouldn't have made ourselves so susceptible to...

    Matches this weekend

    Withstanding the unpredictability of the Championship I would be very surprised if Boro don't beat Preston. The Sheff U v Ipswich game is harder to predict. Hopefully Hamer plays and has a good day to help us out, but I suspect a draw might be as good as we can hope for.

    Leicester At It Yet Again!

    It looks like the football regulator wants to get his teeth into parachute payments. It would be just our luck to get ourselves into the PL and then get relegated without them, when we've had to compete with so many clubs benefiting from that advantage these last few years.

    Match Thread Norwich City - Coventry City Match Thread - Monday 26th Jan

    With the plethora of options available to us going forward I'm easy with however FL wants to go, but the one thing he must do is to bring Thomas straight back into the team.

    You've always been anti Eccles though, and as such are blinded to the qualities he might bring to the team. You absolutely slated him at times last season.

    Transfer Rumour Frank Onyeka

    The description the Brentford fan gave of Onyeka makes him sound like a modern day Carlton Palmer. Not sure if that's good or bad!

    Team you dislike the most

    Forest for me. My Dad was a Notts County supporter, so he passed on a dislike for them anyway, but when I lived in Nottingham for a couple of years that dislike developed even further, as their fans were generally insufferable.

    Away shirt for 1p when you pay with Monzo

    I'm with you a little on this. Being brought up on games in the 80's resulted in a mindset that adults that wore replica shirts were distinctly uncool, which is something that still sticks with me a bit, even though I do possess a few shirts, mostly brought me as birthday or christmas gifts...

    Leicester At It Yet Again!

    If the roles were reversed I would not want us to lose regardless, and I imagine the majority of Leicester fans will think likewise come those particular games.
