I remember Jimmy Hill saying the Romanians (World Cup '98?) had a good idea bleaching their hair because it would make it easier to pick each other out...

I know you've excluded Robins, but didn't he basically say today that it wasn't good enough and he didn't blame the penalty etc. i.e. Displaying the kind of attitude you want to see from now on. Maybe that's a positive you can take from today! :)

Thanks Lynch.

Anyone got any idea how long Moussa's short-term contract is? From the feedback, it sounds like he could be a good player. It would be a pity to lose him in January or next summer if he lives up to that billing.

I'm still waiting for DCI Gene Hunt to turn up to take training at Ryton in one of Torchy's 1970s cars! :)

Good cop, bad cop routine?

We're not going to win games if we keep conceding. And we've used several different combinations of centre back pairings, which suggests Thorn and Shaw were struggling to find one that worked. Just because we've got numbers doesn't mean we're strong in that area. Sounds like Robins wants to...

Where was the interview Dimi? Sky Blue Player? We have, what, 6 centre backs at this club and after one look in training he thinks that area needs strengthening? Doesn't sound like this summer's recruitment panel (/Thorn, depending on the account) did a great job with the 3 they brought in...

Have they committed to the club financially for three years or have they set out a three year plan with a budget for this year?

Bump. Page 3 of this thread might help today.

Struggling to believe this - it's not a Thursday! :) Seriously though, there should be, tucked away somewhere in the finance section of this forum, a pretty good old explanation from OSB of what this is likely to mean. I can't remember all the details off the top of my head, but I hope this...

Any word Lynch?

That was shocking too. I guess my surprise regarding the Burnden Park tragedy was in part down to having not heard of it before when I had heard of Ibrox and, because they happened in my life time, Heysel, Bradford and Hillsborough. I didn't think it was right that I had not heard of it, so I...

We can look forward to getting a couple of points off Walsall then! :)

Someone talking about Stoke on the Cov board got me looking at Stoke's wiki page and I came across a mention of the Burnden Park disaster. It was a long time before I was born and I don't recall hearing about this before. It sounds terrible. Not only were 33 killed and hundreds injured, but "The...

Listening to that last interview, there seemed to be a veiled threat to the players there. It doesn't sound like Robins has been given the go ahead to do more than bring in the odd loan at the minute. But, reading between the lines, I suspect he has been given the ok to ship players in and out...

Any of those fans listed as Birmingham fans might want to consider suing - a clear case of defamation! ;)

You'd hope they know which city they report on! "Here are a few of Birmingham City fans' comments"

The more I watch that goal, the better it gets - and I thought it was magic the first time!

It was the first touch that lifted it from being a good goal to being an awesome goal.
