Obscure one this... Lloyd Mcgrath volley away to Tottenham when we lost 4-3 (when they had Lineker and Gascoigne). It was just so unexpected (he just swung his foot at it and hoped for the best) and we'd had so many 0-0s under Don Howe that our support just went mental. One of those days when...

Woah... are we talking about the same player here, the one who often (very often) gifts the opposition a goal with an underhit back pass etc. ? What he also does though is (and this is rare in our current squad) he keeps his head up after making an error and sometimes creates a chance with a...

I work with a lad who was at Bristol City as a 2nd year scholar last year - he mentioned about Wes Burns being the player who stood out the most in their Academy set up and that he was unlucky not to displace others from the first team. Really hope he's wrong on this one! Can see us playing...

It's amazing that some of us still think we have a chance to stay up after 2 points from the last 10 games... We are not cut adrift yet though. Beavon is a key player, if he can avoid injury and we get a more effective version of Dan Agyei in the transfer window, then we have a small chance...

Wonder why Mike Petrasso has fallen off the radar completely? Think he's still at QPR but is failing to break through there. I know RM is not as high priority as other areas, but with the pace of Reid and Petrasso on the wings we'd create a reasonable number of chances with them cutting the...

I think Sordell will be sold - remember that season when Jutkievicz (sp.?) was sold without Andy Thorne's consent? How to battle against relegation CCFC style: sell your top scorer.... Can see it happening because I think Sordell is still a half decent striker if given service (or not shunted...

Has resigned from Rotherham Possibly still based in midlands after spell at Wolves. Do you think he would consider taking the (thankless) task of managing us ? We could do far worse - he has the right kind of promotion experience. Bearing in mind that I think we'll sell Ben Stephenson soon...

Good post. Cotterill was the 1st name that came into my head - he made shrewd loan signings as well as permanent ones (e.g. that tall striker from Fulham who scored some vital goals for them, Smith I think). Also got Burnley punching above their weight. He recognises players who are good in...

1-3 defeat Think we'll play ok but concede goals from set pieces

Agree with comments about Gadzhev being a big disappointment. We desperately need McCann and Rose back because we are getting over-run in midfield (though Rose will probably be played at RWB by TM) Mind you, if defence can't win first ball in the air it doesn't matter if midfield is more solid...

Agree with Otis. Give him a bit more time. Mowbray said he'd only start looking at the table seriously after a dozen games, so that gives him 4 more games for us to show signs of improvement (that means a couple of wins, not creditable draws). I reckon we have got players who are unlucky not...

Didn't go to game. Listening to commentary was grim: poor Geoff Foster sounded in need of Prozac.

Look on the bright side, we're only 3 points away from safety...!

3-2 defeat. Sordell to score at last!

Let's give him the dozen games he asked for before looking at the league table seriously. If, by then, even with Jodi Jones fully (relatively?) fit, we are not creating enough chances in games, then reluctantly I think we might need to consider a change of manager. I like TM a lot, but I have...

"We should sign Reuben Reid" (Seem to read that comment on here all the time!)

To be fair, playing alongside those two was a hell of a handicap! Fairly strong defender, but could get turned very easily. He could be ok against a physical striker, but against anyone with pace, he has no chance.

Just the way to lift the fans after a 6-1 defeat, get Bigi back!! Saw this coming a mile off... actually, could benefit us if he plays defensive mid & Gadshev plays further forward. Gadshev seems to be happier further up the pitch (plus he's less likely to give penalties away then...) Still...

Wonder if this means TM will change his mind over Kane Smith? My impression was that he seemed to rate him, but thought we needed players in other positions more urgently. That may have changed. TM probably doesn't want to risk DKE as a starter (not physical enough) and Willis seems more...
