Just had a look at the weather forecast for today and the next couple of away days. I'm missing Cardiff, but going to Norwich..
For those travelling to Cardiff (looks horrible conditions) - not likely to be 'pretty' football!

14-day weather forecast for Cardiff.

How many we sold for Cardiff?
Same as you, sitting it out and going sunny Norwich.

Simms or BTA at number 9 today would be good to see IMO…

Not sure re: Cardiff. Big shout out to the die-hards who do travel, though, I'm swerving this to maintain matrimonial 'harmony' . Think Norwich will be the 7th away game this season, and I've just about avoided the rolling eyes.comments when marking dates up on the calendar; talking of which, next year's will be put up soon, and I had a request of 'let me know which dates you;re going to games (so need to check out the remaining away fixtures - Luton and Oxford for certain. plus some Northern Saturday ones).

Hearing about a change at GK

Dovin retiring after a clean sheet

Edit: On reflection, he could be refusing to play, after hearing the new chant from a group of lads behind me in Block 15

'Oliver Dovin, Dovin
Oliver Dovin, Dovin,
Oliver Dovin, Dovin,
Oliver (pause) ...Dovin !

to the 'I like to move it, move it' tune (by the Madagascan lemurs )

 

[CovValleyBoy]

2-2 ?

Likewise, my first game was v Derby county 1st April 1967

"We live & die in these towns"

Can't be right!
What is it with the goalkeeping position at this club FFS?

Good effort that.


Dovin starts

Any more news? You said EMC out. I can’t see a change of formation so rudoni left torp behind Bassette? Eccles and sheaf holders?

 

[Ashdown]

Can’t some people just wait until the official release of the team an hour before kickoff. I mean, if I didn’t agree with the line up, its hardly going to stop me travelling over

Block 4 on sale now, another bumper crowd

Nah they gamble on increasing their made up ITK status

Seems to be the case

 

[Boicey]

Funny how quickly we've moved to being concerned about losing EMC from the starting line up...
The fellas done really well. Looks thinner, fitter, quicker as well has having the confidence and ability to run at defenders, twist and turn and take people on.

Not only that but why the fuck would any supposed City fan want to give the opposition a heads up on team selection.
And don't think nobody takes any notice

 

[lewys33]

I think keep the team the same for today with rotation for the Cardiff trip.

 

[PVA]

This. I really don't get it. Just for some kudos on a forum?

Exactly. It'll be in someone's job role at all clubs at this level to keep a check on these things.

That's a cracking effort.

I’m just trying to give the best and most accurate team news I can as soon as I get it, and if it helps boost my likes in the process, everyone (me) wins.

Also, I can 100% promise that NONE of my team news comes from any genuine inside information or insight - that’s a guarantee.

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

You are one of thickest cunts on this forum.

The fact you have made statements saying how intelligent you are is even more funny.

Go and support someone else.

boo @Earlsdon_Skyblue1 boo, boooooo

not clever enough

still living rent free in your head aren’t I

You missed out 'Illuminati' @clint van damme (have enough points anyway)

 

[mmttww]

 

[Adge]

This is going to be a much tougher proposition compared to Plymouth, but if we want to start climbing in the right direction we have to win our home games.

Early warning for anybody planning to travel to Norwich by train via London - there's a bus replacement from Ipswich to Norwich; not the most straightforward journey and likely to take 4-5 hours. Other option by train is via Nuneaton and then change at Peterborough

 

[torchomatic]

That's a cracking effort.

We've missed just three away games all season, but having a "rest" in January and won't be doing any, to the annoyance of my lad. Car MOT and that kind of thing.

I'll regret it come KO time on Wednesday though.

 

[Nick]

If mason Clarke is out I reckon Bassette could do a job on the left.

When he's drifted out he's put some decent crosses in the box.

Only worry is the defensive side

Get leathered NYE and coping with the hangover will suppress any regret.

 

[The watchmaker]

Just seems so weird. Can believe Robins wanted him as otherwise have no idea why we would compete to sign him with other championship teams.

I hope it works out, but if there is a offer in January for a perm or loan I would take it

I thought he was an excellent replacement for Godden for the money and so did most of here. Perhaps at the point we did the deal Bassette wasn't on. We do have too many strikers now though. Should have loaned/sold one in the summer.

See if Simms was off as rumoured it would make sense to sign him as an experienced player.

Without Simms going tho just leaves us way to much depth especially as I think Mason and Haji will be playing together and rotation in between the ST and LW roles.

Will say tho if we wanted a godden replacement 1/1 we should have gone for Langstaff. Feel he would do really well here with his movement or Joe Taylor from Luton

Have never understood the sad desperation.

Not interested in who is in goal?
