Sorry. Tis Monday. There is a Rob 87 isn't there? Or is it just me going senile. :facepalm:

Yep. Managers just say things to boost players confidence and we should never ever believe a single word they say. Unless what they say proves to be positive and correct of course. In that case, then the bloke was right all along.

Based on what Rob? That we play nice passing football? That he seems a nice bloke? That he's a novice in his first season? Massive gamble in my book to build with a complete novice who has made mistakes and has had us in the bottom 3 since October. The diamond thing could also well come...

Well the council and Higgs Trust etc. will have to see that there may no longer be a football club if we have to get revenue in through owning the ground. Certainly not in it's current form.

The Skip to the Tip you mean.

Not quite right. We'd make a mess of our push for the 1st division play offs.

I used to. Used to call quite reglularly. Then all of a sudden I couldn't get through and the line was always busy. This was about the time Ian starting being on every week.

Under Coleman, in the same place for sure. Coleman in my view though is a bad manager. He certainly was a terrible manager for us. And I think you have missed the point of my post completely. No idea why you thought my post was about Thorn. :thinking about: It wasn't. My post was simply...

Coventry City Fan was not Citizen's Arrest. He was a 19 year old student (well was 19 at the time) and his name was Martin. I know this because he 'befriended' me on Facebook and then everytime I went on Facebook he would send me an instant message and say "Alright, mate?" If I ignored him...

This is excellent news. Hopefully the takeover will be completed by last December.

Not so sure. Next door neighbour's have a CD of Susan Boyle playing at the moment, so it could indeed be all over.

As Ian is so miserable I delare that he is Ian Curtis of Joy Division and say that he hung himself in May 1980 and is now wandering the earth as an slightly unsettled, meandering spirit and claim my £100.

Everything of Ian's is the worst in the last 50 years. Worst game in 50 years, worst performance in 50 years, worst side in 50 years, worst dinner he's ever had in 50 years and biggest dump he's had in 50 years. Do think the bloke exaggerates a tad.

It does indeed. I always rated the lad. Such a shame he went and for such little money too. Bet he'll go for millions next transfer out.

You mean big Ben who was too slow and injury prone and who we were right to get rid of? That big Ben?

Have always said we should stick by a manager if we can and stability is key to our success. But if a manager isn't good enough, he isn't good enough and it would be madness to prolong the agony of his tenure any further. if we find we have a player who just isn't good enough, why would we...

I've got some Italian blood. Just can't scrub it off my jacket.

A few games ago. Tis possible MMM, but I was pissed off with the manager when Gardner came, who was a very attacking midfielder and he still insisted on playing the diamond and even played Gardner as the defensive holding player.

Well I have been thinking that. That would amount to criticising Thorn though and there would be a riot if that was suggested. You wonder if we would have had many more points as a result. But probably not best to go there as they will just be another 27 page row.

Wasn't screaming, but was wondering if he might do that. Think that may have caused us to lose shape though. For all McSheff's anonymity he did give us a bit of width and I'm not sure sure Nimely is half as potent out from the centre. Could see why AT didn't change it. Both Platt and Nimely...
