No chance Murphy will sign a new deal, think he'll be off to the Champ in the summer

I think SP got it right with most of them. I still think McSheffrey would add value to this squad and SP perhaps it wrong where he was concerned - would still like to see him in a Cov shirt and think he got a bit of an unceremonious and low key send off last year.

For everyone going to the game tonight - did anyone receive email confirmation of your tickets being bought from CCFC? I got nothing, which is odd as it's the first time I've not received confirmation. Don't want it to cause a problem when picking up tickets from Wimbledon tonight.

Anyone remember a shite 1-0 win v. Brighton away in 2006? McSheffrey got the winner, but was a dreadful game. Away stand uncovered miles away from the pitch, and it shat it down all game. Think Clayton Ince was in goal that day

Seen Jordan Clarke and Cyrus in Kasbah before, with a couple of VKs each in their hands

Yes Robins did want to oust that culture, but surely he would have played McSheffrey less if he thought his attitude was a problem? Robins himself said McSheffrey has more to his game than he ever did as a player. McSheffrey was a regular under Robins. I suspect it is more a case of Pressley...

What a peasant

Who's captain now Baker's off?

Barton and Fleck are too similar in style. Both like to play deep, taking the ball off the back 4 and starting attacks that way. Playing both of them means the midfield sits too deep, especially playing a 4-4-2.

April 2007, lost 4-0 to Preston at home. 4-0 down before the hour, remains the only game I have ever left early. Also, Notts Forest away last season in the Championship. We'd beaten Leeds through a McSheffrey last minute pen midweek, went up there with optimism and turned in one of the worst...

I'm in the same boat, ordered last week and nothing has come through yet.

Who's skipper?

Just trying to steer the topic away from off-field stuff. Apologies for trying, I'l go back to my silence

What fascinating insight. Many thanks for your revelation

In an attempt to stimulate some more football-related discussion, who do we think would stand in for Baker if he got injured/suspended? Obvious candidate for me is Murphy, perhaps Leon Clarke (I believe both of them have had the armband in pre-season friendlies when Baker was not on the pitch)...

Big fan of Michael Doyle, who could ever forget his overhead clearances...!

I think he's a bit deluded if he thinks we will be realistic promotion challengers with this current squad. Unsure about his tactics, and this whole bomb squad business is completely ridiculous. I've mostly made my mind up about him - not impressed.

Who was captain 2nd half?

Just finished uni in Reading, my ex-housemate used to briefly date this Manset chap. Met him on a night out with the rest of the Reading team (then Championship, 2010-11) and he didn't seem to spend nearly as much as McAnuff, Kebe and co. Therefore he must be shite!

Finally a football related post!!!!!!!!!!
