Hasn’t our skyblue lives changed & thankfully for the better .You might have to pinch yourself to again consider that it’s approaching April & we are still living the dream ……..but this time on 2 fronts !
Let’s all hope that the remaining home games are sell outs & we can do our bit for the team , as 8 games in April is ridiculous, but that’s football ….
We might not win the FA cup , we might not achieve the play offs , but this club ….. our club , is certainly moving upwards , so let’s all enjoy the ride

Been an awful lot of moaning, but it's been a great season.

Whatever happens now, we must feel like we are in a very healthy position for the next campaign going forward.

Robins and Viveash are our Clough and Taylor. If by some miracle we make the cup final, then it pretty much nails on their legendary status at the club. What a duo.

All but confirmed relegation when we went to Wembley for the checkatrade.

Forget the L2 p/o’s, back in 2017 if you told me we’d be back again for Championship p/o’s and FA Cup Semi Final, there’d have been strong calls to have you sectioned.

Found myself this morning fast forwarding to the summer and anticipating and dreaming of even more great recruitment and the new signings buzz we will feel.

Good time to be a fan

Fancy naming your child Emergency Caesarian?!
That said, I took my dog to the vets a couple of days ago, when a couple came in with a cat (luckily for it - in a cage). The girl on the desk said to them 'This must be Mr Pork Pie?' To say I stifled a guffaw would be an understatement !

To think there were a handful of people on here had sympathies with SISU and believed a lot of their lies and bullshit.

Was at the vets in Pets at Home down Hinckley Rd recently and there was a cat called Keith. Nothing else mattered, I was so happy.

Well if there still around they must be well hidden.
I still have misgivings about King, just because he shared office space with them.

Such an exciting time to be a Cov fan. It's April and we are still fighting in two competitions! Even if we come short in both there is loads to be positive about.

Most of our early season problems were caused by lack of time to plan and train. We also had to bed in loads of new players and work out a new system. That's not the case next season. A pretty much bedded in squad. Only O'Hare nailed on to leave but Kasey has stepped up massively. We'll obviously add to the squad but we will already have a really strong XI whilst new players get up to speed.

Everyone important has a long contract so even if teams come in they will have to pay top dollar and we don't have to sell.

I was reading an article about Jack Burroughs last night in the Cov Tel. Sounds like EMC could be quite some addition for us…and that Burroughs himself could feature a bit next season. He suggested he’s been playing LWB predominantly.

Totally agree.
We won't win the FA cup.and I'm treating the United semi as our actual final, as I think most people will.
Beyond that I think the play off qualification will go to the last match .

If we don't make the play offs there will be an absolute meltdown on this site by quite a number who will throw everything at Robins, the players and the owner.

See you say this. But alongside thinking we turn United over, I also feel the same about Chelsea. They are just as mentally weak and Jekyll and Hyde as United

I mean it takes an extraordinary set of circumstances, us to beat United and Chelsea to somehow beat Man City, and then Chelsea to not turn up while we do in the final. But stranger things have happened. Leicester won the premier league ffs

Saying all that though if Man City beat Chelsea its over for us, or united, they are the best team in the world for me

Between you and me, I thought Chelsea were absolutely abysmal again at Leicester in the second half. We'd have ripped them to bits. So you never know !

Just got to get a good start next season. For now let's enjoy the ride. These players have done us proud and if we make it to the Final, Robins will be ascended to Godhood.

We exist in a different world than the last few years. A selection of things we now have or do that were pipedreams in the L1 and 2 days - 1) Pay transfer fees 2) Retain good players. 3) Have become the big club in a lot of transfer dealings. 4) Have an expectation of winning. 5) Play really good football 6) Find ourselves covered in the media more 7) Have what appears to be a settled home. Huge progress really.
