Also inherited players that had ACL injuries in the recent past - Brown, Ogogo, Biamou

Done his ACL in the 23s game on Monday. Wouldn’t be a City season without at least one of these! Awful luck for him

How is Jutkiewicz regarded by your lot? Always liked him while he was here, proper striker who leads the line well. We may well not have been relegated if we kept hold of him in January during the 2011/12 season

Impractical for many non-Midlands based fans (such as myself) and the iFollow money still goes to the club. It's a great alternative option to show support

David Meyler retired from professional football today, citing injuries to his right knee that have caught up with him

Exactly, they don't. Two yellows turn into a red card resulting in the sending off, they don't remain as yellow cards against a players disciplinary record. Dabo is on 2 bookings for the season

Haha I was absolutely fuming at him for that, shocking tackle right on HT

Also heard this too. And backed up by quotes from MR in press during pre-season His wife had a kid this week as I put on another thread so is probably the reason he hasn't been around U23s, Jack Burroughs played as a stand in LB yesterday Hopefully he will sort this move and start playing...

Suspect he may go on loan until January in the next few days, his wife has just given birth yesterday/Monday I believe so he's probably focused on her and the newborn right now

He did a Q&A on his instagram and said that bar Watford, Cov was the club he most enjoyed being at and in different circumstances would have loved to stay for longer, and also that Mowbray was the best manager he played under. I liked him as well when he was here, shame we shoved him out wide so...

Same. Robins is no mug and surely part of the reason for playing 4-3-3 in pre season is so we have a different approach if we don't get Bright or we get a young, unproven no. 10 on loan who may take some time to settle into League 1. Much better to be adaptable rather than try and shoehorn...

I think he just needs games to prove himself, ideally at a team in our league. A Ponticelli-style loan till January, then re-assess

One thing that will be interesting to see, regardless of formation, is how well Kastaneer/Jobello track back and show defensive discipline. Thomas was excellent at it last year and that discipline is not generally as well regarded in the foreign lower leagues, they don't place the same amount of...

The volunteer thing I agree with, although your 2nd point is a little lazy. Age group cricket leagues and training are (generally) deliberately run from April to start of July to account for people being away during school summer holidays. There are many cricket camps run outside of this period...

Yeah, when he did play up front on his own last season it was very much back to goal with balls lumped up to him that he had no chance of winning - Luton away springs to mind when Baka went off injured after 25 mins. Running at goal with interchanges between that fluid front 4 and he'd be very...

Unrelated, but Kevin Pietersen was at my club on Saturday watching his son play in the morning before our game started. His son is already very, very good aged 9 - 36* off 17 balls

Agree, I've been playing league cricket for years and clubs are absolutely desperate for more numbers and increased player pool. It's very easy to join a cricket club and certainly everyone at mine would welcome new players. Javid is an arrogant wanker with no idea about grassroots sport

Yeah he has tendonitis, which flares up every now and again hence having to miss a few random games

Hiwula what a boring geez!

Agreed. I'd be really disappointed if this was true
