In no particular order
New songs shouldn't be chosen just because someone gets their little kid to sing the lyrics on video
We'd have been better off retaining Biamou than bringing in Waghorn
I would rather have finished 20th in League 1 twice on the bounce than get relegated and come back up.
Mark Robins is a Lower league manager. Completely out of his depth at this level as proven time and again. Three years of stagnation

Yeah I remember thinking at the time with Oggy in goal we were going out.Ogrizovic was (and still is) massively overrated
if Hedman had not got that ankle injury, we would have been in the 1998 FA Cup Final
Paul Williams was awful
Oh I’ve got a thread winner:
CCC and Wasps acted rationally from their position and Sisu were entirely to blame for the ground mess. Up to and including Ashley buying it. And scarpered as soon as they realised they’d failed.
On a lighter note:
“natural position” is mostly bollocks, especially for midfield players and most players can adapt to a slight position change.

Some of the best memories I have at the Ricoh were when Micky Adams was managing.
I think several players have shown it’s fairly easy to adapt to another position. No idea why it’s got this reaction.
I direct the honourable gentleman to the countless former CCFC forwards played on the wing
Paul Warhurst D M A CI don’t mean every player is a success. But Gus moved from RWB to CM, Maatsen from LWB to AM, I think Eccles is a decent RWB (which is what inspired the post). Away from CCFC Henry is a famous example. It’s about the qualities a player has rather than a strict position IMO.
To be fair we did finish 8th in the Championship one season.I hope your head injury is all cleared up now.
I don't think Eccles has the natural qualities to be a wing back. Burroughs may possibly, but Eccles to me looks like the tidy kind of player that plays CDM.I don’t mean every player is a success.

He's doing an admirable job filling in when he has to, but he's certainly not suited to it. Got Isaac Osbourne vibes all over it to me.
I think his crossing is Ok. We just seem to have a plethora of wingbacks who are terrible at it. Of course he's good defensively - he's a DCM - but I just don't see him providing that much of an attacking outlet. When he plays there his nature is to stay back so he doesn't get caught upfield.I think that’s harsh on Eccles. He’s got a good cross, solid defensively and good interplay and movement. I think DM and wingback roles are very similar in many ways hence quite a few players moving between them. I also think he’s not getting in ahead of Gus or Sheaf and it’s better for his development than sitting on the bench or the U23s.
He was.Joe Cole was a fucking shit signing and detrimental to that season.
The Kasey Palmer song is even worseThe Doug King song is shit
