    Boxing 2024

    You just can’t step up to that level from another sport. Fury should have done the same but a combination of not preparing and probably his head did for him. An elite boxer doesn’t walk onto them shots does he, no defence at all. It’s dangerous really. The big winner tonight was Parker. Has...

    Hopefully that’s an end to this crossover bollocks. Properly and utterly schooled. If a nearly 60 year old Tyson can please do the same to Jake Paul and put an end to that circus too that would be great.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Jeremy Hunt does a better Arnold Rimmer than Chris Barrie.

    Transfer Rumour Ellis Simms

    Between them there are potentially the attributes to form a decent partnership. Simms doing the donkey (pun honestly not intended) work and Wright finishing. But that would require a commitment to two up top and consistent formation change which I can’t see.

    Transfer Rumour Ellis Simms

    I just feel with Wright, if he gets the service, he will make the chance and hit the target the majority of the time. Whereas Simms will put it out the stadium or it’ll bounce of his shin, even if he is the one to close down and try and put a tackle in.

    Transfer Rumour Ellis Simms

    This is where I’m at with him. His first touch, technique and finishing are all so far below par every three games out of five. It may look worse as, in his defence, he rarely goes missing (Ala Wright) and so his errors are more noticeable. But it’s sometimes mind boggling to me that he’s come...

    Transfer Rumour Ellis Simms

    If an oppo striker put four or five in the stand and shanked a few with his shin and ankle we’d be saying the same. He looked an absolute carthorse last night.

    Average to shite. Toss up between Torp’s set pieces and Simms’ shooting for biggest bag of wank of the night. We improved second half but as always you look better when you’re two down and the oppo just sit back. Feels a while since we put in a good league performance over 90 minutes.

    Max joins the Vikings!

    Don’t you remember him turning down a move to Chelsea to help us secure safety first season back up? Fair play to him for his move though.

    QF Draw

    I am potentially after one for West Brom depending on the seat. Isn’t this the Wolves draw thread though? 🤔

    The atmosphere will be a cracker. Not implausible we get a result there.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Maidstone United [FA] Match Thread - Monday 26th Feb

    Job done. If Kelly is now fully fit I’d start him with Torp V West Brom. Don’t think we lose the midfield with those two in like we did Friday and Eccles needs to sit a few out, much as i rate him. Hopefully that kick starts Simms to be more clinical in the league. Needs service though. Would...

    5 at the back now

    I think it will happen. Probably unfair to write Haji and Simms off as a front two based on the first few games given they’ve both progressed since then, albeit only very recently for Ellis. It could work yet. I’d probably rather that than Tavares RW. And we really need to sure up at the back...

    Yep, hence I expect to see the return of a back five / three with wingbacks.

    Robins has to own that one

    I think his best position may be DM in front of a back four with two or three central midfielders ahead of him.

    Our support vs Preston

    The lights thing was embarrassing. Looked like a little mix concert. We‘ll be a laughing stock if that carries on.
