I like Allen and think he is very underrated. He does work hard but I think his contribution is a lot more than simply running about a lot.He rarely makes mistakes and despite his lack of goals is certainly someone who works box to box. He is an example of how getting your head down, not moaning...

I said to my son the other day that in terms of the quality of football that we have played and also because there have been so many good games, this has been one of the standout seasons for me (and I have seen a lot of our seasons!).

I have enjoyed everyone of those seasons. Even last season, every game seemed to be a battle to keep our heads above the water line. This led to seem real edge of the seat encounters. This season we have played some glorious football and haven’t really got the rewards the standard of our...

The coldest I have ever been!

Don’t think he did. It may not have been a pen but the defender tapped Godden’s ankles when he’s clean through on goal. Accidentally or not, he brought him down when clear on goal. Free kick and red card I think.

Can you honestly say something is poor if you don’t watch or listen to it?

That’s like watching us against Hull having missed the game against Sheffield Utd and then saying the performance against Blades must have been crap because the one against Hull was.

Bit like Nick from Birmingham on the phone in. Never sees a game but comments on them all the same. I think the man is a genius! (That’s Gruff not Nick).

That’s a really hash comment. Jones didn’t just score that hat trick and then disappear. Until his injury he was our best player that season. His performances were good enough to attract the attention of Leeds and it sounds like had he not been injured then he would have been a Championship...

It was often pointed out about Jimmy Greaves that he could be anonymous for 89 minutes and then produce a bit of magic to score a goal. Seems as if JG was playing for us these days he wouldn’t be appreciated by some on here. I am not, by the way, saying that Godden is in anyway as good as...

For the penalty, I felt their player jumped into Sheaf. I felt the contact was made by him rather than the other way around. The ref did make a few mistakes. Dabo took the ball out for a corner but he gave a goal kick And O’Hare had a decision for handball given against him on the edge of the...

They could waste as much time as they want so long as the time is added on at the end. The fact that referees don’t do this is a reward for the cheating that goes on. The little guy doing the Mickey take jog to the corner, the three Hull players who didn’t move for the ball when Mattson gave...

I think the interviews with Robins are good. He is articulate and honest and the way that he talks about the game is the way that most people seem to see it.

Well they did win it 89-0

I seen a great stat in When Saturday Comes magazine the other day. Billy Sharp has scored in every match day minute, 1 to 90 except the 5th minute.

I think you are missing the point of his reports. If you’re looking to find out who hit the bar in the 49th minute then you won’t find that stuff here. He looks at the experience of going to a game and writes about it in a funny and very clever way. I’d say he was too good a writer to be a...

When he took over we were at the lowest point in this clubs history I would think. A lot of fans were staying away or had given up. Sisu were still intent on running the club into the ground, there was no stability with regard to the stadium and the football under Venus and then Slade was...

I think the one at Tranmere was a miss. He put it straight over the bar.

I thought that Walsh still had a year on his Bristol City contract when his year here was up. I was hoping we would go for him when he was not retained by Bristol at the end of last season. He obviously went to Swansea then but did we even try to sign him?

No, not a part time ref. At games I get frustrated by decisions the same as everyone, I’m as biased as the next person. I can see though that It wasn’t Keith Stroud who was constantly clattering O’Hare. The cynical approach that teams like Preston adopt is what causes this to happen along with...
