    Another worry for me is MOTM performances by midfield players. There was Baker against Brum. Struggling to find many more (if any) over the past few years past that though. What other MOTM performances have we had from a midfield player over the past 2 or 3 seasons? Bet you can probably count...

    Another oddity and embarrassment is consistency of players. Listening to a guy on CWR from the local radio in MK on Tuesday and he was talking about the consistency of players such as Darren Potter in the midfield and one or two others and he said that invariably they played consistently well...

    Kevin Malaga placed on transfer list

    I'm happy to move on, but while the players he brought in continue to be under the spotlight, he himself will also continue to be in the spotlight too. Hasn't helped at all that we have had such a bad start to the season and the players that have been brought in haven't at all shone. In fact...

    Kevin Malaga placed on transfer list

    We do need to draw a line under all this, but it was clear Andy Thorn was simply not up to the job and I will be very surprised if he ever gets a job in football management again. All the excuses in the world do not hide the fact that he came up woefully short of what was required to manage a...

    Kevin Malaga placed on transfer list

    Difference is, as follows: 1. We were one of the favourites to go up this season. 2. AT said we were very much aiming for promotion. 3. AT said that all the 9 signings were very good quality. Last season we were struggling and looked likely to struggle whoever was at the helm. This season...

    Kevin Malaga placed on transfer list

    Trouble is, he brought 9 new players in. While any of these 9 players continue to under-perform the trail is always going to lead back to him. Until it is Robins with his team this is going to run and run and run. Going to just have to get used to it I'm afraid.

    Wankers at work

    Maybe that was exactly it. Lunch time, just back from Beale's Plaice with takeaway tucked under his arm, urinals blocked, colleague desperate.

    Not being funny here, but just how much more benefit of the doubt is there left for David Bell? :(

    I do think Coventry is relatively safe from him now to be honest.

    Can't be arsed to read all the ripostes backwards and forwards, but I would think that Thorn identified players, Waggott would assist and Fisher would say whether or not we could afford them. Thorn - Chose players (with assistance from Waggott) Waggott and Fisher - Sort out the contracts and...

    Barton

    I sincerely hope he comes good. He's been very poor thus far though apart from the odd flash here and there. Hope Robins can do something with him because at times he appears to be on autopilot and just cruising through games and then disappearing for large periods. I personally think he would...

    So...Who will go next?

    Based on what little I have seen so far I would think these players may well be on the hit list. 1. Barton 2. Hussey 3. ROD 4. Jeffers 5. Kilbane 6. Wood 7. Bell

    Fair play to him. Always looked a player with great potential for me here. Very rough round the edges, but a player who could definitely prove to be a good un.

    Kevin Malaga placed on transfer list

    NTHWC, you're forming an opinion before the manager has even had chance to explain his decision. How can you say the decision is daft? Could be a number of reasons. 1. Hasn't settled. 2. Not committed to the shirt (something Robbins said he'd be talking to every player about). 3. Can't fit...

    Predictions for Saturday

    I had a good feeling about Tuesday. Going for draw again on Saturday after what I saw against MK.

    Kevin Malaga placed on transfer list

    We just don't see what goes on behind the scenes do we. I know nearly everyone on here seems to think there is nowt wrong with Cody McDonald's fitness. Robbins seems to think there is though. Who are we to argue? Maybe he is just saying that to cover something else, maybe it's true. I would...
