    Best Captain (post PL)

    I believe Nathan Clarke who was a RB but wore number 7

    Best Captain (post PL)

    I love all the positivity around the club currently and I know Grimes is doing a good job but it is early days, however, who would you think of as the best Captain since our relegation from the PL. I have decided to not include people like Ricketts, Wright, Eustace or Grimes mainly because they...

    "It never happens for people like us, you know"

    It's like the Monkees song I'm a believer I thought love was only true in fairy tales Meant for someone else, but not for me Love was out to get me That's the way it seemed Disappointment haunted all my dreams

    Rivals for auto spots

    It has all gone quiet in relation to the points deduction though for Leicester. I would assume that would be 6 points or there or there abouts which puts them at 9 points behind us (if they get a 6 pointer) I think the Coventry fan pessimism comes out on here. It would be interesting to read...

    Did Frank inherit a top squad?

    It must have slipped my memory but my overriding thoughts on the second Robins regime was slow starts until he got things to click each year. But I stand corrected regarding 21/22

    Did Frank inherit a top squad?

    I seem to recall Grimes apparently being tracked by Robins or under the Robins regime. Doesn't mean he would have signed but if true it was a longer term target. Woolf was targeted in January so who knows if he was longer sought after too. I'm sure Lampard drove KKH and probably Rush too but...

    Dear Doug....

    Yeah they were chanting about being sacked in the morning. I just don't see the pull for Lampard to go to a club owned by a irrational trigger happy despot. I know the PL is the big draw but Forest most likely won't be there next season. Sky blues tinted glasses firmly on but I can't see...

    Dear Doug....

    Whilst he is quite rightly a Chelsea legend, he respected SAF greatly and wanted to replicate some success there. Lampard I would say is a bigger legend for Chelsea and doesn't have that link. Good point well made though

    Team for Blackburn

    If Haji is late are you saying Simms to start with BTA in the ten and EMC left wing or Eccles in the ten and BTA up top with EMC on the left still?

    Dear Doug....

    I'm sure Lampard would want a potential promotion on his CV with us. Plus the jobs likely to be coming up in the PL would probably be: - Nottingham Forest again (Basket Case Club due to Owner) - Man Utd (Doubt a Chelsea legend would take United hot seat also cursed job) - Wolves (Perennial...

    Chris Davies

    Grimes lobbed it over their player to stop the quick free kick in front of the bench. I do think Haji did it twice too but got booked for one of them.

    Oh we should have been you are right but we even had chances to snatch it at the end too. Think they are much better than are given credit for and they have shown that the last three weeks.

    Oxford just got a very good result away from home at Bristol City today. They did well last week too and against us. I don't think it is as bad a result as it's been made out. Norwich was just one of those games, another day we win that 3-0. Hull I agree was the issue result but first game and...
