Have to remember Robins really likes Eccles - trusts him to do the job. My only criticism of Eccles is sometimes he gives the ball away too cheaply. Otherwise he’s one of those whose work goes largely unnoticed.

Just watching the latest Sunderland Netflix and Bannan is a right little shithouse, which probably lends itself to him being a dick to palmer during that first hillsborough game. I have to say as well I think he’s a shit player too.

Wasn’t haji’s recent groin issue to do with fatigue and tiredness - he did seem to overstretch it when got the injury but he’d played a lot of minutes in the run up to it, and robins did say he thought it was that. I think it’s wise especially given how long he was out for - wouldn’t want it...

They have had the youngsters play on it and also Nuneaton the other week when ordinarily it would have had a bit of time to recover between our games. That hasn’t helped.

Robins said this the other day, but it was happening to Viktor blatantly last season after a certain point, the tactic was to kick him to stop him, he got no protection either. It’s not on, the referee’s primary purpose is to protect the players. I think it was the Birmingham home game when he...

Yeah this is the reason why the keeper didn’t keep it out as he was expecting it to go far post I think. It’s pretty obvious when you see it. one thing with Wright is when he falls/tumbles down he looks a bit cumbersome/clumsy and it looks a bit silly, but he’s a big guy at 6’4” so I’m not sure...

Shocker that one

There were people pushing through the barriers in the snakes that were there

Thing is you don’t have to print them. The gap in the scanner is big enough for a smartphone. today I think the idea with the snakey queue thing was to not block up the path/road so fans can walk past. Once you got to a turnstile it was seconds in. Unfortunately you need people to comply with a...

This might sound a bit silly, but I often think that youngsters are good judges of players, and he’s got a lot of young fans. The amount of kids shouting for him to wave from the family zone when he was a sub the other night was quite something. bit like when Hamer is in town and they all queue...

Real Madrid do it as well. Did it when I went for champions league. “Casemiro”!

Got there at 710 as the teams were warming up. No issues, straight in. Re the printed tickets, people do know you don’t have to print them and can just scan them from your phone? I’d imagine the vast majority of people can do that?

Definitely not sexy then?

Never said it was a priority, just strange he ain’t got one when almost every other player seems to. People who need to get a grip are those shouting he’s shit as he didn’t jump for a ball played 6 ft over his head.

Yeah he sort of turned to run onto it but the centre half had jumped and headed it.

Bloke behind me last night - simms is so shit. He literally then scores about 10 seconds after he says it. Then Thomas lumps a ball up to him that he wouldn’t win and again ‘he’s so shit’…. Kids 22 years old - got bags of potential. Needs to work into it. Not surprised he gave it to whoever was...

I thought godden started pretty well and made some good layoffs and first time passes, but faded - although to be fair most of the balls through to him whether over the top or along the ground weren’t weighted correctly. Milan his touch wasn’t quite there tonight - nothing sticking. The tackle...

You are correct…. My bad. Long time ago. Home debut it was…

Yeah against Derby when ray winstone was there filming, although he did almost get sent off first couple of minutes for scything through Seth Johnson. I remember Joe Cole’s and he got a free kick and there was this noise that came over the stadium that I’ve not heard before as he was stepping...

Me and mrs got one each - think they’re up the loft.
