    I don't have particularly bad eyes

    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...

    the referiing decisions and luck

    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! :)

    3 new signings - Conor Henderson , Jamie Reckford , Franck Moussa

    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.

    Steve Taylor

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

    Mark Robins Interview after training

    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...

    Mark Robins Interview after training

    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...

    Sisu

    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?

    Would you trust sisu with the half ownership of the ground?

    Bump. Page 3 of this thread might help today.

    OLD OLD OLD OLD OLD NEWS : CET: Deal struck for half of the stadium with Higgs Trust

    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...

    Football disasters

    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...

    Football disasters

    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...

    Robins Interviews

    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! ;)

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

    Chelsea v Juve

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