    Can we compete

    I reckon that if we get another striker, it'll be someone we've never heard of - which was the case with most signings last summer: youth players from other clubs; players from abroad; Bosmans from other sides who were not household names. I was looking at the Chelsea youth team yesterday...

    Can we compete

    I would think it's very unlikely that we'd throw all our financial rules away if we are promoted. There will be a bit more to spend and my guess is that a realistic aim in year 1 would be to avoid relegation. If we want to compete at the top end we'll need to build slowly as we have been...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    The majority of clubs will be neither in risk of promotion nor relegation and vote in the way that the deem fairest, I imagine. The small number voting in the way that suits them personally should be irrelevant.

    St Andrews/ The Ricoh

    I'm starting to think that there may not be any football this year! Possibly another option on the table is to cancel next season, and use any time we can snatch before May 2021 to complete this season.

    I've also got a bucket idea. Would you pass it on to Gary? The idea is that you take 7 buckets, all of different colours. And then you hide them. The kids have to find the red bucket. If they do, they get 7 points. But if the find one of the other buckets first then the lose points as...

    Well done. I wouldn't have got Paranoid - not really my bag. But thought that there were quite a few into metal here so I should include something - and I'm not touching Def Leopard or anything like that. I'd only just washed my hands :P
