    Match Thread Doncaster Rovers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 18th Jan

    We could actually do this, we’ve built up a lot of momentum! 3 away wins on the bounce is huge and against the teams around us is just what we need!

    Working to Become Financially Independent

    I’d rather a monarch that didn’t intervene and just stick to their constitutional role, performing public duties and so on. If Charles doesn’t have the discipline, then there is a potential crisis looming.

    Working to Become Financially Independent

    There’s no real appetite for abolishing the monarchy right now. But, Elizabeth II is overwhelmingly popular and has reigned for a long time. Frankly, she has been the model constitutional monarchy. It could well be the case that a more fragile monarch may not be able to survive a crisis in the...

    Working to Become Financially Independent

    I don’t disagree. The monarchy has its uses, but I’m a republican by nature. In fact, before this and the Prince Andrew scandal, the monarchy was in a strong place. Now, with all this and with a potential king who has abused his his position in the past to influence policy as Prince. The...

    Working to Become Financially Independent

    Agreed. A lot of people are keen to compare the press coverage of Megan compared to other royals. One example is about avocados with it being one of Kate’s favourite foods as well as Megan’s. With the coverage a lot more negative to Megan. The difference isn’t ethnicity. The difference is that...

    In the same window Portsmouth paid £1.5m for Marquis. Godden clearly wasn’t beyond their financial constraints, they just weren’t willing to pay £750k for him.

    Marosi

    Not particularly, we had the 9th best defence last season, we’re currently 8th based on goals conceded. I prefer Marosi, and he’s less error prone and better on the ball, which is important for how we want to play. Based on the stats, we’re not much different as a defensive unit compared to...

    Marosi

    I wonder if Willis regrets leaving. Personally, I think he’d be perfect in our current setup! Rose, Hyam and McFad all looked really good yesterday barring the occasional little mistake. Playing 3 at the back seems to help us play from the back too, so it’s a well suited system for us.

    Mark Robins

    But, we’re not in the top division so that’s a bit of a pedantic point to make. Win % isn’t the be all and end all, but it’s suggestive of success. Which Robins has been, a promotion in his first full season, then 8th in L1 and now we’re 3rd in the new year with the least amount loses in the...

    Match Thread Tranmere Rovers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Wednesday 1st Jan

    Agreed. Very frustrating to concede a goal from nothing when we’ve absolutely dominated this game. Hopefully it come back to bite us! My prediction for this game was 2-1, but we should really score another 1 or 2 goals to finish Tranmere off.

    Every set of fans has a section of Neanderthals. I’ve never bought into this fabricated rivalry between Sunderland and ourselves. It’s only come about after the anniversary of that Bristol game in the 70s. Half the people who feel strongly about this ‘scandal’ weren’t even born when it happened.

    Is Wycombe a one-off or the new normal?

    Let’s just see what happens now, the monkey is off our back and hopefully the team gets confident and builds on a great result. We’re difficult to beat, but it’s up to us to pick up more wins.

    I don’t understand why people would be happy with this? When a community is at risk of losing its team, it’s a tragedy. It’s surprising this would come from us, with our experience renting the RICOH and our current exile from Coventry. It doesn’t take much for the next Bury, Bolton or...

    Wycombe fans view

    Our current system gives Shipley and Westbrook a lot of freedom to attack and I’m very confident Bayliss would have thrived in that setup because that was the strongest part of his game. We’re doing well, and if we can pick up some more away wins we will surely finish in the Top 6 with a chance...

    Wycombe fans view

    I thought Shipley was underrated too. But, I'd still maintain Bayliss is the better player and think Bayliss would've developed nicely under MR this season - but, it's irrelevant now. MR knows how to nurture the talent we have, he had a plan for fringe players like Westbrook, Hyam and McCallum...

    Wycombe fans view

    My mate was graceful in defeat as we've had workplace banter for the last few months. He said we were the best team they've played this season and shown me a tweet from Chairboys Central saying the same thing. If we can keep Gooden on form, I believe we can make a real push at automatic...

    Match Thread Wycombe Wanderers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Sunday 29th Dec

    I work with a Wycombe fan, was supposed to be in the home end with him today. I can confirm they do not like playing us at all. Definitely a bogey team for them.

    General Election 2019 thread

    Since 2017 my enthusiasm for Corbyn has dropped considerably as a Labour voter. Corbyn is personally either very popular or unpopular with voters. With a lot of working class voters, he was despised and this is why places like Blyth, Stoke-on-Trent and Bolsover could be flipping to...

    Dabo

    As a fan base, we judge too quickly. Some of us have looked very silly with early judgements. Frankly, at times I thought Dabo had a mistake in him, but a few nearly moments shouldn’t be the basis of a judgment in my view.

    Pressley sacked

    In fairness to Pressley, he can take some credit for Wilson’s development with us. Had we not been in admin, I think we would’ve released him and who knows where Wilson would’ve ended up. Pressley inherited some difficult circumstances and did well for the first half of that season at...
