2 year contractI guess there will be a queue of clubs after his signature in the summer given his obvious qualities

2 year contract
Yes imo
Good close control and seemed bit more energetic
That's about how I saw it.Burge 8 made some crucial saves at 0-0
Grimmer 6 offered little going forward but was relatively untested defensively
Hyam 7 solid throughout didn’t put a foot wrong
McDonald 7 same as Hyam was solid throughout
Haynes 6 decent going forward but got caught out a few times defensively
Bayliss 5 evidently not a winger
Kelly 6 offered nothing going forward and was relatively poor on the ball but was fairly solid in front of the back 4
Doyle 6 some good passes throughout but pulled out of some challenges most likely due to the pending suspension after next yellow card
Reid 6 few decent runs but far too greasy today
McNulty 5 offered very little and missed some golden opportunities
Clarke-Harris 7 poses a challenge to their defence with his physicality but offered nothing else in the final third until a good run for his goal
Biamou N/A
Barrett 5 offered nothing and clumsy on the ball
Do you really think Burge is choosing to slow the game????? It is instructionBurge 4 a couple of good stops but his distribution is slow and woeful
Grimmer 4 worst game I have seen him play
Haynes 4 is nearly always out of position
Hyam 5 best of a bad bunch
Macdonald 5 was ok
Doyle 7 does what he does
Kelly 3 plays to deep and doesn’t move it forward needs to be left out and should never play at home
bayliss 4 wrong position
Reid 7 mom we are far better with him in than one paced Shipley can beat his man and does put the odd good ball in
JCH 5 played badly but did the important thing and scored would Biamou have been in that position
McNulty 4 goes over too easily and did little

I think he kicked really very well today. I think 2 went out of play out his hands, off the floor he was excellent and he threw the ball out quickly a number of times.I don’t think it is I think his brain doesn’t work quickly enough and then is it instructions to kick it out of play?

I don’t believe that can be true. He’d be dropped. The whole plan from robins is to slow things down. Don’t get caught with too many players forward. Don’t make mistakes! Set up the team not to lose. It’s the robins way. He’s not wrong always. If you don’t make mistakes the other team have to do something clever.Multiple times he could have put players through, just dont think he was quick enough.
Players were going mental at him.

JCH has more league goals than biamou already , it’s case closed
Ok, I’ll judge him on the previous 20-awful. But hey, he waves at the crowd.I said he was growing in confidence and was beginning to score goals. It seems a shame for him to have lost his place as he was finding his feet, and beginning to deliver.
He’s come off the bench for most of the last 7 games so hardly fair to judge him on that.
He most certainly was. In all my years supporting the Sky Blues (35 years) I’ve never seen a more blatant old pals act between manager and player as was Strachan and Telfer.He wasn’t though was he
I saw Barrett after the game and said he played well to him but then he heard me saying how fat he was to my mates so gave me daggers. He was looking like a snooker player with a waistcoat on for some reason.

Yep another one. Wasn’t as long as the Telfer affair though.Atkinson and (Kevin) Richardson

You go ahead (and miss the point). Criticising a player for not scoring in the last 7 when he’s been a bit part for most of them isn’t really fair is it. Just like ignoring his improvement.
Burge 4??? Saved well including one described as “World Class” and kept a clean sheet. Bit harsh maybe.Burge 4 a couple of good stops but his distribution is slow and woeful

Whilst for some reason I like the guy its goals we need, Telfer used to run about a lot but I thought he was shite
He said he didn't even like football and likewise we didn't like him attempting to play it.Couldn't agree more. Teller was a shocking player.

Part of the weekly poker syndicate?It certainly dragged on. Telfer was part of a good side too - possibly the best since I’ve been going up.
I remember when Atkinson became manager I was dreading that he’d sign Richardson. I wasn’t a fan.
On the theme, I seem to remember Howard Kendall always used to sign Alan Harper.
These players must add something to the dressing room.
Multiple times he could have put players through
True story this , I was working at a fruit and veg shop when I was 14 and strachan came in , I had a chat about city and for some reason the last words that came out my mouth was , and drop telfer lol.He most certainly was. In all my years supporting the Sky Blues (35 years) I’ve never seen a more blatant old pals act between manager and player as was Strachan and Telfer.
