Robins had a history of turning it round and getting a great PPG ratio in the 2nd half of the season. Not often I agree with @shmmeee but he's bang on. We're literally just 8 points off the play offs with 2/3s of the season to go. This is arguably the weakest Championship for a few years with...

Totally agree. And not only that, DKs fired arguably our greatest ever manager for a poor run of form yet were 8pts off the play offs, still with 2/3rds of the season to go. Any new man coming in must have POs as a minimum target. Also, quite a few keep banging on about xG and on that other...

Well I think that's me told on xG. I'll look into it a bit more. But probably still think it's bollocks next time it comes up in conversation 🤣

Fair enough. I guess I'm just of the school of thought that if you look at goals for and goals against and one's much higher than the other, its pretty obvious what the issue is. That coupled with actual visual evidence of watching games. And I'm not sure I subscribe to 'false league...

But why do you need a predictor of the league table when you can just look at the league table. Whats the accuracy of the above table....if we finish 19th, does that mean its bollocks?

Not trying to dig you out, but isn't your first sentence a pretty obvious statement and something we'd expect? I'm pretty 'meh' with all this xG stuff to be honest. And before I get responses saying I'm thick or don't understand, I'm well into Strokes Gained in the world of golf. Those are...

I mean to be fair, the only stat that counts is the league table. It does matter what we 'should' be achieving, it matters what we are achieving. And FWIW, I didn't want Robins gone, thought he'd turn it round and haven't been shitting the bed about relegation.

Would imagine EMC would be the natural replacement? Needs to step up with some of the Peterborough form from last season.

Too busy concocting his next pile of crap.

I'll be gutted it our next manager is one of a number from the bookies list. That said, they'll have to have my support as Robins has proved that some managers just click with certain clubs and not others. Our set up and squad could be perfect for Lampard. I'm not so sure but you just never...

Hate Coldplay but with that montage, even that songs ok! Some amazing moments there....the best 7 years I've had as a Cov fan (on the pitch stuff anyway).

Factually correct though. Just stop being a div on that subject.

Mate seriously, stop with this shit. Of all the Cov fans in the world, its not just the 20-25k who go regularly who are allowed opinions. There's no good reason why this forum isn't representative of 'regular fans'. In a roundabout way, you're pretty much saying the opinions of the likes of...

Surely there's a common interest of wanting the club to do well? Everyone on this forum wants one thing - success for CCFC - even you (I think). It's not pointless. If we didn't have representation, we'd be moaning that it was a closed shop.

Eh? It happens all the time?! Only a matter of days ago, Bruno Fernandes did it after Ten Haag was sacked by Utd.

Utd didn't stop their players from speaking about Ten Haag last week. I'm pretty sure it's not normal practice TBF as any time I've seen a 'big name' manager go, I always seem to see player responses in the media shortly after. Not saying it's right or wrong, just an observation.

So...again, why don't you do it? The irony of you castigating those who go to the forum (whether justified or not) and not offering to do it yourself when you obviously think they're doing a bad job and then previously saying that those who don't attend matches have less valid opinions than...

Why not go along with Pete then and ask questions you'd love to get answers to?

Cheers Doug

I don't know if that's a dig at me or not...if so...its still a poor take and many decent posters on here don't go regularly. But you know that already. Regardless, you could be right. If a new manager comes in and wins his first 4-5 games, then yeah, maybe. If a new manager comes in and...
