Looked good in a couple of games very early on, but then got a prolonged run in the side and appeared out of his depth. Some of that may have been down to trying too hard to impress when form had left him. The current management clearly doesn't fancy him, though. As others have said, he's...

I think you've missed the point. I'm not offering an opinion on how good or bad a signing it would be, just saying that this wouldn't be possible, or even mooted, if we weren't his hometown club. A similar status player with no connection would not be being discussed. That's all. I'd be...

If he wasn't an ex-player (and a Coventry kid) then there would be no talk, or possibility of signing him, at all.

If teams up their game against us it's because we are top of the league, and they know they have have to.

Very marginal, and if you quibble that kind of decision, where it's fractions of centimetres and no advantage is gained, then you want VAR and all the chaos and soul-sapping joylessness that it brings. Fine, if you do, but I don't; I would like to see us get one of these stonewall penalties...

You know you don't have to be in the same room as someone nowadays to speak to them, right?

This is getting annoying. If you don't defend, you haven't played well enough to win. And as shit as the decisions that have gone against us have been, referees are not against us. That's just mad.

No, because those decisions were correct. Marginal, maybe, but correct. So for balance, we need some stinkers to go in our favour, not just get the correct decision in some heart-in-mouth moments. Offside goal v. Sheffield Wednesday is the only one that's coming to mind. There may be others.

If that's true, we should have had two today. Both of the handball shouts were correct. I have no complaints about today's.

That's true. What is also true is that game-changing decisions are consistently going against us. We can be both poor and have a poor referee performance costing us at the same time. It's impossible to argue that we shouldn't have had a penalty today; if we do, then we probably take something...

It's just boring, isn't it.

He doesn't hide, and he isn't lazy. He's bang out of form and his decision making is particularly poor, but those kind of criticisms of him are just plain lazy.

Don't put it anywhere. It adds nothing, and is just childishly petty. "Oooo, you did it wrong!!" I mean, how old are you? 40s, 50s, going on the references of games you make. Grow up, for fuck's sake.

Ffs, we were battering in goals for fun. Whatever our form is now, for the first half of the season, we were head and shoulders above every other team in the division. We don't look like that team now, but I guess now we see how good Lampard really is, and if he can turn around the form of a...

It wasn't passion, it was childish petulance. Though there should be a retrospective yellow for their player's embarrassing response, too.

This is how I feel. How can you expect anything when you're capable of a performance like that? I think that's the worst defensive display I've seen from us since that awful Wrexham cup game. Not quite on that level, but getting there. It was just brainless all over the pitch. Against a team...

Today, for EMC.

You can't give away goals like that and then say you deserve something out of the game. Not with a straight face.

Fuck all for anyone after that. It was another brainless performance, all over the pitch. Again, I don't think anyone comes out of that with any credit.

Losing that in that manner to such an average team is unforgivable.
