    Cowley sacked

    What possible benefit can changing a manager with 2 games to go bring? Especially as they're against Arsenal and Man City. Madness by Watford unless what was said earlier is true. As for Paul cook to our place? I wouldn't be against that but can genuinely say we as fans have no idea what we're...

    Striker

    Indeed, £6M ish and £20K a week I should think. Probably about right that fee. They want a couple of ours so we may be in for him, especially if Famara Diedhou leaves us. Then again, we haven't even got a Manager. :( To the poster that said Paddy Madden, nowhere near good enough at the level...

    Is it inevitable that Robins will leave us this season?

    Brum and lee Johnson? That will end well. :facepalm:

    Is it inevitable that Robins will leave us this season?

    Nope, all your fault. ;) I was actually at Highfield road for that one as a little cidered.

    Is it inevitable that Robins will leave us this season?

    Ah, our beloved east end, we absolutely loved it, even if it was a bit shit!

    Is it inevitable that Robins will leave us this season?

    Indeed. Luckily for us, it's not but I do agree with the sentiment, we've been absolute garbage for months.

    He was given a free one by the club when the South stand opened due to the positive publicity it generated. Whether he still gets a free one now I've no idea.

    Seems to be the obvious choice, IF we can get him.

    Is it inevitable that Robins will leave us this season?

    I had to reply to this as it's factually miles out! Sorry but this post is utter tripe! We're not pretending to be anything we aren't, a middling club on the up, not a big club. Good luck for next season and FWIW, I hope MR stays where he is. Not the Ricoh but has earned rave reviews from both...

    Is it inevitable that Robins will leave us this season?

    Hence why we are after a new manager. We've been utter toilet for some time. Given the short break between the end of this season and the start of the next, it makes sense to do it now for us rather than waiting. Will we be after MR? No idea but Hughton seems to be the name being mentioned a...

    Just to warn you, most of the big boys charge large loan fees for their youngsters nowadays with clauses put in stating they must play. If they're crap, you either pay the penalty clause or play them anyway. An example, we had agreed a 7 figure loan fee with Arsenal for Nketia, before he turned...

    Is the Championship bigger now then it was when we were last there?

    You'll just have to disprove that theory then MusicDating. No reason why it applies to you just because it has applied to others. Look at Burton, they survived for a while but were always going to drop as they are a smaller club. No reason why you, as a far bigger club can't prosper up here...

    Watch the fixtures bring you to our place on day 1 and you batter us! ;)

    Is the Championship bigger now then it was when we were last there?

    £9M would be one of, if not the, lowest in the division I should think. Certainly pre covid it would have been. It might be the ideal time to gain promotion, we don't know how things will play out which has to be to your advantage. The other thing is you'll have far longer than other teams as...

    You might do a Sheff Utd and steam straight through jto, I don't know but I would be happy to survive next season as a minimum.

    Is the Championship bigger now then it was when we were last there?

    We've had 22 out on loan at various levels this season jungle. We buy em young (and cheap) coach them, then send them out to gain experience. Some make it, some don't. It's the only way we can do it. Even the ones that don't make it are usually sold at a profit, Mo Eisa is an example, maybe...

    £18M I believe but that soon got changed.

    Is the Championship bigger now then it was when we were last there?

    Excuse the outsider posting on this thread but it's almost identical to a thread on out forum from 5 years ago. Like you, we won L1 relatively easily and hoped to compete in the top half of the Championship with, pretty much, the same side and had been away from the 2nd tier for 8 long, long...

    The only Hewlett I know of at our place was Matt Hewlett and that was ages ago. We haven't got one in our current first team / reserve / U 23 / U 18 / academy squads as far as I know.

    I noticed a couple of posters mentioned players OOC at our place. Matty Taylor - Good intelligent player, absolute legend for leaving them up the road to come to us for a pittance. Works really hard and knows where the net is, not sure he's top Championship standard. We'll always have the Man...
