I'm satisfied with where we are at. We've been unlucky with injuries and had some fantastic results against the best sides in the division. However, our record against the worst teams is incredibly frustrating and clearly needs to be addressed if we're hoping for top 3. I want us to get top 3...

No, but I have been around professional sportsmen and environments to know you're talking nonsense.

HA! This is absolute nonsense. If he puts through a player through on goal, and that player misses, it’s on them. If he did indeed think that, then it’s clear he’s a bad team player, because a wild shot is in no way better than a chance on a plate, regardless who’s on the end of it. On current...

Yes, but they’re two leagues below Wasps - and a lot of their players are semi-pros still! Pretty good value for money, but they play on Saturdays like Cov - so I’ll always go to see Cov when I’m not playing rugby myself on Saturdays! Wasps play on Sundays so people like myself can go watch (I...

Also, it’s to do with the product on offer. Wasps are a premiership team with international quality players - they got to the final last year! No other team in the city can offer a superior product. Plus, there’s some 15+ rugby clubs in the city, so there was market potential in the city.

We are trusting our own young players; Bayliss, Maycock, Shipley, DeKE and Ponticelli have all made their 1st team debuts and the latter 3 I mentioned have all had a run in the starting lineup. Then there’s Willis and Haynes starting week in, week out for us. This Barrett lad is A) something...

I said I agree that he needs to improve the goal scoring aspect of his game. ‘Needs improvement’ and ‘not good enough’ do not mean the same thing. You saying things like Jones’ hattrick ‘papering over the cracks’, is complete nonsense. Recruitment, with the resources we’ve got, over one...

I completely disagree. The squad is clearly equipped to do very well in this league, hence we've beaten all but two teams in the top 9 - whereas we've won two games against the bottom 7. It should be obvious to all (unfortunately it is not) our failures are tactical as opposed to personnel -...

I entered this world to a 2-2 Leicester (A), 1994/95 season. Blackburn were champions - now look at us both...

It wouldn't surprise me if we terminated his contract, has scored 1 goal for both Solihull and Sutton. It's a shame because I was rooting for him.

My god that is so vague. People need to cut Biamou some slack, he was not signed to be a starter, injuries have pushed him up the pecking order. Moreover, he's been pushed up that order and he's not been a professional for a single season yet. The jump in standard is huge. He's been bringing out...

I personally think, after reading what MR’s said, that most of the players leaving will be leaving on loans. If we’re only bringing in loans, it’s stupid to get of players permanently. As for people suggesting Vincenti or Biamou be shipped off. Ludicrous. Both players are getting a lot of 1st...

I don’t think any starters will be sold, unless there’s a ridiculous offer tabled. It’s January, and most of these players have long contracts - there’s no pressure to sell. However, fringe players who aren’t getting game time, Thomas and Beavon spring to mind, will have to be shipped on to...

Again, Doyle has consistently played 40+ league games a season since he left us... So, to have 3 players competing for that last spot leaves us in good stead. Then you still have two highly regarded academy players coming through too. Remember, you actually have to be able to g Be all these...

Grimmer has looked rather shaky at the back of late, so I highly doubt you’d want to be in a position where he has to play. It’s good that these players can cover, if need be, but we have 4 good CB options. I think it’s unwise to break up an area of the team that we know is the best in the...

When you consider that last season two of them automatically promoted teams top scorer didn’t manage 15 goals... And we have two players on 8 goals and it’s not even Xmas yet - I think I’m going to disagree. We still have the best defence in the league - despite what I’d consider a bad spell...

Some people have badly misjudged McNulty - he’s clearly turned a corner and is the striker we hoped he’d be in preseason. He’s had some strong finishes, especially the Boreham Wood one. I’m glad he’s shhhh’ing the boo boys. Just hope Biamou bangs a couple in for some Xmas joy now!

Because getting rid of our joint-top scorer is a very intelligent move...

Last week I read Jim Bentley's comments challenging his team to 'get a goal' - seen Morecambe fired 15 blanks this season - thought jokingly that we'd lose... Lo and behold, 2-0... Annoyingly typical of our season. I think we'll draw v Cheltenham, 1-1 - they'll get the opener.

It would be typical of us to beat them, but lose to FGR the next week. We've not put together a real run of wins yet and it's always the 'lesser' sides that tend to beat us. How frustrating to see we've beaten all but 2 of the top 7 (excluding us and Wycombe), yet, we've only beaten two of the...
