Tis true though Paxman, whether you like it or not. If you listen to the people within the game, coaches, managers, players etc., then they all talk of the possibility of 'burn out' for young players. The seasoned experienced players have been playing week in week out for years in pressure...

'At worst, it can break them.' Been my fear too. When I mentioned it on here there were plenty saying 'if you're good enough you're old enough' but it is never that simple. Danger of burn out, too much pressure on them before they've had chance to develop and it can sometimes send them...

Very childish indeed. This is professional football. Should have at least been Pin A Tail on a Donkey or One Potato, Two Potato!!

Say hello to the 1%.

He is fine on the deck but struggles in the air and is not commanding enough and quite often let's the attacker get the better of him. He worries me a little at centre back. Neither Cranie or Keogh are commanding enough.

I'm serious!! We all think the Ricoh Station is to bring fans to the ground from Cov and Nuneaton, when in reality it is going to be a direct through line from Coventry to the City of Manchester Stadium.

I'm quite happy about it all myself. I see Man City also have us in mind for their own redevelopments. They are planning to build a fully operational 7,000 seat stadium at their training ground right next to their stadium. Means we could move in to an appropriately sized ground for our size and...

Could therefore move Keogh to right back and slot Cameron in. by the way, where's Wood, McPake and Clarke? :eek:

Disagree to an extent, especially in regards to Keogh. For me Keogh isn't a centre back and Cranie lacks the height. Both players lack the strength. I really like Cameron because he is big and strong and a no nonsense type who won't get bullied in the box.

Yep, that's really comforting that isn't it.

Not so sure I had faith with him in the first place. Have totally backed him and I like the football we play, but the bottom line is he is pretty untried as a football manager. He was a scout bumped up to the position because needs must. It's a learning curve for the bloke and it's going to...

Well this was what I was hinting at, kg82. Last week Paxman put up a post asking how good we are doing. Well last week it was okay, this week it is shite. Far too early to pass judgment on how we are doing after only 7 games. Harsh reality is though that we are near the bottom of the table...

Totally agree. Doesn't matter who the manager is. The squad isn't big enough, there's not enough quality and we are too dependent on blooding kids.

He is indeed. And in January he will go for a knock down price.

They don't ever seem to say it as it is do they. Always looking for the positive spin when I think people simply want the truth. The game was over at 2-0 and we were out of it. 2nd half much better yes, but as with what happens with many a team 2 -0 to the good they stepped off the gas a...

It was men against boys and now our predicament looks so much worse. As it stands now; We have the same amount of points as the team sitting 2nd from bottom. We have only scored 4 goals in 7 games. Only one team has scored less goals than us. We have only 1 win in 7 games. We are 4th from...

Or even Sheffchenko, but it was the first time I've ever heard of it!!

Someone also said that we bought Jukebox in as a replacement for Marlon King.

Has Carl Baker got any more brothers ... and if so, are any of them ill?

Is this how the Cuban Missile Crisis started?
