    Cards on the table: where will we finish?

    Next season wise, I’m excited obviously got to finish this one but if we don’t go up. Lampard has got the fourth highest points since his appointment. Assuming he’ll be backed as Mark was so should be very interesting to see where we end up and if his style of play will diverge when he can...

    Yeah it’s not as bad as some others or even as bad as it’s made out. Would have done some good having it in the city centre area mind as would have meant it wouldn’t be as empty on the weekend.

    20 years on

    Sadly got no real memories of the place due to being too young. Looked a proper vintage ground. Location seems like it would have been immense with the people walking down from the town centre. Seems a shame we moved to the outskirts of the city.

    Angus Gunn

    Apparently according to Nixon we did but backed out due to the price tag.

    Angus Gunn

    With Dovin out till at least December anyone who comes in should at least be competing for the number one shirt even when Dovin is fit to come back. An experienced keeper like Gunn would be good for our young defence and would help mentor Dovin and Bell.

    Who would you sell?

    While it sounds like a decent plan. The only issues I can see is A who buys Sheaf for that much if no prem team is circling and B who do we sell our Keepers too. Wilson i could see but can’t see any team looking at Collins atm and thinking he’d be a decent pick up especially with the coverage...

    Apart from the FA cup loss, I don’t really have any ill will. Seems a bit of a circus with how it’s covered especially with the Americans coming over but not my club, not my monkeys.

    Brad Collins

    If we do look to sign Dunn or one of the others mentioned would we have to get rid of Collins and Wilson to cover the wages?

    Lampard

    Think it’s harsh to judge him if we don’t make it. Understand the perceptive and the season at the club should be seen as a failure but for us to be here with the injuries we have should been seen as success for lampard even if that success is 17th to 7th imo.

    Championship thread 24/25!

    It’s just a pendulum imo. I’m sure people felt the same in the past when for instance Queen’s Park in Scotland started to favour possession over a direct approach in the very early history of the game. It’ll keep changing based on what works and then tactics will be made to break what works and...

    Championship thread 24/25!

    Robins said this a lot over the last years he was here about football becoming more like Chess for managers. Sadly those moments of magic come at the expense of the managers control of the game. Ultimately tho I do think it’ll switch back when new styles come over here (Relationism)

    Lampard

    Tbf feel there is a good chance for both 5th and 6th atm. Both 3rd and 4th struggling to get any momentum atm, both seemingly having their own problems. Probably get battered now I’ve said it mind 😅

    1 game to go

    Is it bad I actually kinda like this idea. Only problem is the other CBs we have. But with the crosses we have and his accurate headers…

    Match Thread Coventry City - Middlesbrough Match Thread - Saturday 3rd May

    Must win isn’t it. Could even secure 5th let alone the playoffs depending on results tonight and on the day. Been posting squads all season but will just back Lampard on the day including Collins as trying to stay as positive as I can so I’m not a nervous wreck on the day 🤣

    Lets look on the bright side

    I’ll always argue you make your own luck. Great to get those goals sure but in both people forced the issue whether that was Simms putting pressure on a young keeper ( as he was told to by Grimes), or the team pilling on top of pompy at the death ( Thomas being up front so the CB had a harder...

    Brad Collins

    Rewatching the match, he definitely kept us at 0 - 0. Especially with his Walsh save. Absolute mental decision which I still can’t understand at all
