    2023 ?

    Sorry, but I want to increase the incredible dullness of this thread by saying that recorded time is longer than that. Recorded time refers to the history of events and knowledge that has been documented throughout human history, which goes back thousands of years. The current year is just a...

    Ex Player Watch

    How bizarre. Although, to be fair, they are the 5 time Rock Cup champions and 7 time Gibraltar league champions, so he might end up with a medal. Love how they describe him as their 'biggest signing to date' and as a 'former Chelsea wonderkid'.

    The ones who got away

    To be honest it was so late in the window, I had no idea of it and when it did come about I knew it was two days left and nothing was going to get done – and even if it did I didn’t really want to leave. “As soon as I found out I rung my agent and told him I didn’t really want to go, I wasn’t...

    If Bidwell wants out....?

    I understand that I'll be in the minority here, but I'd still have Bidwell starting, even though he probably isn't seen as dynamic enough for how we want to play. I just think his experience, and his steady Eddie performances, give us real solidity at the back, and along with Fadz I'd want him...

    Birmingham

    If MR and his team were to resign tomorrow, I'd have Eustace here to replace him. He's clearly a good young manager. If I was him, I'd be spitting feathers right now. He has a 45% win rate over 170 games, which is fantastic, and is being replaced by 'a winner' in the form of the dull...

    Bob Taylor and Paul Gascoigne are the two that spring to mind.

    Agree that 5 is harsh, but I think he looked quite tired today. Was industrious, but 3 games in a week from a standing start was too much to ask.

    Really don't agree with the view that Simms didn't work hard. Can't question his effort imho.

    Suspect that if Godden had played from the start we'd have won that. Thought Sakamoto was fantastic all game, a constant threat, and delivered good crosses (well, they would have been if anyone attacked them). He's got the potential to be a real star.

    Championship TOT(Mid)W - Thomas included

    Very odd. Fadz and Binks both outshone him by far. Whoscored metrics are often rubbish anyway.

    Hate, hate, hate playing Norwich. I'm just going to assume we get a 0-4 spanking so I don't get disappointed.

    MR said Kelly had a torn hamstring, and according to the NHS, "a completely torn hamstring may take several months to heal and you'll be unable to resume training or play sport during this time." Ben Wilson said in his interview that Kelly had said his injury wasn't too bad, and hoped he'd be...

    I suppose when you think about it, we've only lost 3 in the last 30 games (excluding penalties). That's not bad at this level.
