    Kyle Hudlin

    Thought I’d start a thread for the 😂 Got some dog’s abuse on here over the years from the brainy bunch for having the temerity to even suggest we look at a 20 year old undeveloped local lad who was studying whilst playing. I thought it an idea that we stick him in our u21/23 development...

    Gyok Or Arena

    It’s going to be silly season on here for a few weeks with no Cov games. There is talk of £30m for Viktor which seems quite bonkers but stranger things have happened. 27 scouts the other day someone said, obviously not all Prem, the £25m plus the Germans spent on Bellingham worth noting. I’m...

    Dear Boris

    Dear Boris Johnson, If you seize the assets of Russian oligarchs in the U.K. can we get to keep JCS and Maatsen please. Signed. SISU. We are Finns not Russians. (Satire. I think)

    Unattached Players

    Any of the sleuths on here know of any unattached players that may be able to do a job? Jack Wilshere types without a club that might do some kind of pay as you play? What happened to Andre Wisdom? Diego Costa as a far fetched idea?

    VAR In Championship

    What’s the opinion here? For me it’s a question of when not if. Yesterday would have IMO been a totally different result had VAR been in force. At least one of the penalty shouts or Godden’s header would have been awarded. It’ll be a travesty if we miss out on playoffs by a couple of points...

    Abel Alabi

    https://waterford-news.ie/2021/10/05/former-southend-player-signs-for-coventry-city/ News story from the other day that Abel Alabi has signed. (I can’t remember this been official anywhere). Anyway. This season will be biblical. Means our last two signings have been Kane & Abel.

    Birmingham Senior Cup

    Looks like we’ve got a fixture in a week or so (12/10/21) against AFC Wulfrunians (who I admit I’ve never heard of). I don’t understand why we don’t take this cup as a bit of an opportunity and have a go and also have a bit of a jolly. It’s a great opportunity for some of the fringe players to...
