Bidwell with the cross for their first, too, isn't it? Also, Latibeaudiere is an exceptional name to have.

Yeah, I think he was a decent lower league player, but not good enough for the top flight. Seem to remember we paid a bit for him, though.

Simon Howarth. Him and Lightbourne played up front together in an away game at Barnsley, and were utterly inept. Some of our recruitment in the 90s was baffling.

From what I recall, we started badly, got it going, then fell apart.

Think if we go up we have an obligation to sign him.

Birmingham owners clearly have no idea what they're doing.

Call for Wayne Rooney!

Markelo seems able to play either side. He's replaced EMC when coming on for us. Only Google told me he played on the right in Switzerland.

Hence doesn't have huge sell-on value. Plus contracts can be extended. He's a hugely important member of the squad; I don't see us moving him on for the sake of it.

Don't think we sell Sakamoto, and don't think we prioritise a winger to play on the left. Think it's a 'no thank you' for Esse and a new right-sided winger. I imagine Saka being a squad player / impact sub next year.

Agreed. Don't think it will be an issue, though. Can't see us going in for him.

Main problem is they never give anyone a chance long-term to implement their ideas.

Wouldn't touch any of the Leicester players, to be honest. Massive commitment question marks over all of them after this season.

Doesn't matter if he was slipping or not, their bloke fouled him. The fact that there wasn't a single murmur of complaint from the Swansea player probably tells you a lot.

First half EMC was superb. Grimes MoM. Onyeka, Simms, Dasilva very good. Rushworth had been shaky in the first half, but what a save that was at the end.

They had three excellent chances in the first half, but we had three goals and could have had others. Second half they only threatened at the very end, and we probably ought to have scored again before then. We got the breaks in this game that we didn't last week, and it was a well deserved...

Complete control that second half. I'm starting to believe we've got a chance here.

EMC excellent in that half. Grimes and Simms very good. Scoreline's harsh on them, but who cares. Less of the fannying around at the back, though; a couple of heart-in-mouth moments there. We haven't been very tight at the back at all. I'd get Eccles on for BTA quite soon.

I suspect Hull are looking below them rather than above now.

Alan Green was* a colossal cock-end. Looked like a gargoyle and all the wit of a dropped-trifle. Brainless pub-bore convinced that everyone gave a fuck about his ill-informed views on anything, when all they wanted was to know what was going on in the football. *Is? I have no idea if he's still...
