    Wing backs

    Suggested it before and will say so again, wouldn't it be a good idea to try wing backs? Both Christie and Adams are pretty good at getting forwards, but our defence looks ropey. Half the time Christie and Adams are caught out going forwards anyway with the way we play, so why not go for 3 at...

    For Preston read Yeovil?

    Anyone else sense the similarities. Nasty, bitty, time wasting, shirt pulling, fouling, clogging and a plan to keep lumping the long ball up to the strikers to try and feed off. Trouble is, yet again we had a ref who failed to penalise the opposition for the constant time wasting and delaying...

    Steve Davis post match reaction

    AFTER watching Crewe Alex’s stunning 3-0 win at Coventry City on Tuesday night boss Steve Davis said: “We had to ride our luck at times and you need that against a good side with a partisan crowd behind them. “Our game plan has worked for us. We set out to frustrate them and restrict them...

    Plastics

    i am guessing they were plastics anyway! 35 mins. An awful lot of people went down to the malls. An awful lot didn't come back to their seats until the 1st minute of the 2nd half. There were 2 mins of added time, so they disappeared for 13 mins. 2 blokes by me didn't come back until the 55th...

    So, so unjust

    There is no way we should have lost that match, let alone lose it 3-0. I am not too despondent however. We play that same way again for the return leg and we can quite easily win 3-0 ourselves. I thought we played well, apart from our defensive problems yet again. This we must address before...

    Tonight's 'new fan' questions and comments!

    I'd ready and am expecting one or more of the following questions or comments; 1. 'You're in my seat!' (this despite me being an ST holder at the Ricoh since its opening and in this same seat all season long) 2. Is this Block 18/19/20/21 etc. etc.? 3. Is this the Ricoh Arena? 4. Why isn't...

    Where's PSGM1 these days?

    Robins a poor manager? We are nothing without McGoldrick? Time for a rethink?

    Still the fairer sex

    Anyone watch the women's cricket today? England v Sri Lanka. One day international. Now I know the women's game isn't at the same standard as the men's, but dear me, they was some dreadful fielding today. Absolutely awful. Had it been a men's match the commentators would been berating the...

    Eakin cracks a funny

    Did anyone else catch it? Usually find Geoff and Clive quite serious and I know at times they appear to not get on too well. Anyway, yesterday, Clive Eakin said that the City game was on but that all other local stuff was off, Bedworth, Nuneaton, Leamington, Cov rugby etc. Geoff Foster piped...

    The next 3 games could define our season

    Preston away Sheff Utd away Crewe at home (JPT). Surely these 3 games will decide our destiny or certainly go a long way in doing so. Points at Preston and Sheff U and we really could be cementing our place amongst the play-offs contenders. Lose both and it could be a bitter pill to...

    Bournemouth

    Two things. One ...... Today was their first defeat in 16 games. Now that's what I call a run!! Two .... Anyone see the third goal Walsall scored against them today? :o Walsall player running in from the right wing and just outside the box there is a challenge and the forward goes down...

    Bizarre mini bio of actor

    I have Sky Movies Premiere and every week they have 4 or 5 new films on a Friday. If there's a film I am not to familiar with or want to know about I have a quick search on IMDB (International Movie Database) or MRQE (Movie Review Query Engine). Anyway, this morning, one of the new films...

    Hull v Sheff Weds on Sky Sports 2 now

    Anyone else watching? Just caught the last 10 mins and have to say I am not at all happy about the insensitivity of the Sky commentator. Basically, the Hull keeper dropped the ball from a corner and an on rushing Sheff Weds forward bundled the ball into the net, kicking the keeper in the head...

    A week of cup upsets

    Macclesfield beating Cardiff. Luton beating Wolves Bradford beating Villa And now Swansea beating Chelsea 2-0 at Stamford Bridge. I therefore see no reason why we can't add to these upsets tomorrow and win a game at home for a change!

    Brian Roberts on CWR

    Don't know if anyone else picked up on this yesterday, but Harry was saying he'd been asking a few questions behind the scenes at the club. Questions that are not usually asked. He says he was told by a few people that previously (under Thorn and Shaw) it was all quite easy going around the...

    New Year's Day - 5 points outside the play-offs

    We would all have taken that wouldn't we? Played well today for the most part and it was just one of those days. We clearly should have won that match this afternoon. Not much gloom and doom from me today. We had 20+ shots on goal and on another day would have got at least 3 or 4 goals. 5...
