Not even trolling, if we were to win or play well in midweek I wouldn’t bring Hamer back. I’m not his biggest fan tbf

With all due respect that’s mental. Our midfield is so pedestrian with Allen and Eccles in there.

I’m guessing it’s a combo of the Hillsborough jokes, and the time he came home steaming after the Euros final and started trying to start fights with people in the Mental Health thread at 2am.

Play Hamer and he'll get sent off, don't play him and it looks impotent. If only we had a dynamic central midfielder who wasn't the easiest to wind up in the division

That away end after the game was as good as anything I've seen. Not many fans like that when bottom of the league. A different class.

Very much so. Coventry fans are elite, considering what we have been through. Take a bow SBA you throughly deserve it

Yes he is. He'll have suspected that the goalscorer was in an offside position and will have clarified with the lineo

I like Eccles next to sheaf. How could you drop him for someone who’s let you down so many times before?

He’s gonna get paid anyway, dropping him cos you’re worried he’ll drop himself seems strange.

Not true? I pointed out Parks hypocrisy on the mental health thread as he was struggling to make friends yet used that as a stick to beat me with. He’s now gone and is on Reddit asking for steroid advice so hardly a stable mind.

My comments about Liverpool were my own feelings and not jokes. Far worse has been said recently in regards to Celtic. Also I believe that was Warthog

He's a liability who shouldn't be able to just walk back into the side after shafting his teammates for nearly half of our games to date.

I said that if Robins preferred Biamou (which he did at the time) then there's little point in keeping him.

Look I know you're disappointed we won today but there's no need to make things up to prove whatever point it is you're trying to make

Mate I hope you didn't say Biamou was better than Gyok I don't want to have to start judging you!

No, it was Boosh who said Liverpool fans were to blame for Hillsborough. Good to know it wasn’t just banter though.

David o Day has never been banned and Parks once wanted “to know where I sat”

The banner looked great, especially at the end when the team went over to take their bows.

Great result and despite a few Stan and Ollie moments, thought the back line held up well and dealt with them. Eccles really stepped up today and justified his place, thought he was immense. Well done City, a boost on the pitch when it's all going off off it, and well done to the travelling fans, you sounded great.

I don’t mind him when he posts as himself.

Wind up accounts are annoying as are the faux outrage fits at someone calling him a tear or something.

If he could keep the test but reigned in he’d be a good poster.

I don't get this Hamer will definitely get sent off crap. He isn't that much of a liability.

He's missed 5 games out of 12 and will clearly be marked out as someone who's easy to wind up by the opposition.

It looked it when the Cardiff player headed the ball forward.

He was in an offside position at that point but commited no offence. He only becomes active when playing the ball which came off Fadz - it should have stood.

I could be wrong but I thought if it's judged that McF deflected rather than deliberately played the ball it's equivalent to no touch

I still think his last red was unlucky/daft rather than particularly aggressive. I'm not saying he should come straight back in but I don't think he's going to get sent off every match!

That can be his only interpretation but he clearly means to play it imo.

Against a team of expert shit housers who have just got 2 opposition players sent off today I think he will be.

Then it's down to interpretation but if that's what he thinks he's right to disallow the goal

I agree. I'm not advocating dropping him completely!
But he should be on the bench. As others have said, he'll probably start regardless

I think I'd start him on the bench but change up early if we are looking leggy. Not sure you should change a winning side unless an absolute fluke!

On the decision to substitute Callum Doyle...

“It’s difficult for anyone to come off, let alone in the first half and I honestly thought he was carrying something.

“He’s a young lad learning and if you’re not at the races, and he wasn’t, he was off it a little, it’s not a criticism.

The Cardiff commentators speculated that him having to play it made the player active in that phase.

I'd still play him in the 2nd half shit housers or not he must be feeling a bit of a knob by this point and know he's got to get it together.

He got caught on the ball twice in very dangerous positions. As MR says, he wasn't at the races, he'll be out now and Rose in and it's up to him to fight his way back in

I'd be OK with that just don't think he should be able to start immediately after letting his teammates down in a not insignificant way

I think we are violently agreeing. Especially on the back of a win today. We do need to be able to rotate but shouldn't be an instant kick out to put Hamer back in.
