  1. If if was Eustace I'd be telling Waggott, king rat and Rudy, whoever the fuck needs to know - get me at least 2 decent new players in the building by Saturday or you'll be looking for a new manager. He'd walk away with pride and a good reputation, into another job. Nobody should have to put up with it.
  2. I wouldn't go that far, and at least he's capable of staying onside. In a weird way I think he might actually benefit from the time he's had on the sidelines. A few weeks to recover and reset. He was looking a bit worn out and the last few games went down with injuries, it was only a matter of time till he got one that kept him out. A revitalised Yuki, like the one that we had in August would be a huge boost.....
  3. Not a thing. They're either A> keeping their cards even closer to their chests that normal or B> there's fuck all happening. I know which option is the more likely in eyes. I'm distancing myself from the subject to be quite honest, January is depressing enough as it is. Fair play anyone who remains upbeat or remotely optimistic about this window, the Chaddys of the world. I however am fully expecting another catastrophic shit show.
  4. Struggling to see us win a game till Travis is back now, although even then he’ll take a while to get back up to speed. You can’t really perform in the championship without a half decent midfield and I don’t think we have that with Forshaw in it. 1 nil defeat
  5. Nixon is being a dick there definitely no truth in it
  6. Thomas-Asante deal is no longer an option after he scores winner today and we weren't prepared to go above 5k a week in wages is my bet
  7. I'm not so sure, not like they're at the foot of the table. If he strings a decent run together they're right in the play off picture. Emotion often gives added impetus and there's a lot of it about with this appointment...
  8. Not true at all from what I've seen (the fan part), they seem delighted
  9. Aye thought that must be the case as he seemed to be scoring a few previously. Let us pray that he turns out to be a gem!
  10. Mafoumbi just scored a stunner to put us 3-2 up. Has he been injured? Haven't seen him mentioned for ages till tonight...or has he just been playing crap?
  11. I'm concerned he'd get rid of broccoli as much as anything else 🤬
  12. I liked Mowbray a large portion of the time, but I'd be gutted if we reappointed him. He got them promoted once, significant difference being he was backed heavily in the transfer market back then though which he wont get now. Presumably his last managerial job and I wish him well, just finish below us....
  13. What's interesting about the play off hopefuls below us currently is only WBA have a defensive record rivalling ours. But right down to Swansea they have all scored more. It's glaringly obvious who needs to strengthen where, the fear as always under this regime is that the others will do that, and we'll piss another season away....
  14. One of the weirdest loan signings we've ever had. I think it was the Newcastle game he looked brilliant AND an absolute liability in the space of like 10 minutes. Liverpool must have caught him on a good day when scouting him......
  15. Tough one to call, although they're unbeaten in 5 in the league, they've had a much easier last 5 games than us, at least on paper. Not sure what sort of team they put out against Exeter in the cup? Our response to losing to the twats up the road has been good, that could have signalled a real slump but hats off to JE and the lads putting things right. We haven't conceded more than 1 goal in 13 games now, to high flying Sunderland in the 2-2 draw. Defensive steel like that means you're always in a game regardless. A 1 nil away win would be nice but I've got a sneaky feeling this ends 1-1, not a complete disaster but could see WBA edging us out the top 6.
  16. I think he's on about in terms of the standard of football. Revenue wise, they have some really big stadia, multiple stadiums above 50k capacity ( that get filled) Which will account for the revenue side of it.
  17. If you read the views of Coventry fans on BTA they're very similar indeed to Plymouth fans on Forshaw. "I'll drive him there", "are we paying them to take him?" Etc etc. I didn't read much what blues fans said about Dion but presume some similar and Leeds fans have been exactly the same regarding Bamford. Seems our strategy is to target out of favour players who may embrace being taken under the wing of Eustace and get back to their best. Could work, could be a disaster I suppose. He does seem to get the best out of a number of players, Brittain being a prime example, he's arguably pushing for our player of the season IMO.
  18. Unleaded maybe, Tommy has never got anything right...
  19. Yes Weimann? He's probably our best finisher as it stands, it's worth a try but I think he'll tire so hopefully we can get a few goals in early ish
  20. Gueye won't be starting. Looks like Weimann is up top A possible "get me a striker now" plea from JE?
  21. I don't disagree, to be honest he was all out of sorts against them and probably shouldn't have played. I don't think the constant chopping and changing of attacking options has helped Cantwell build up much of an understanding either. Obviously injuries have played a part in this.
  22. I bet the name James Collins from Derby has been mentioned. There's absolutely nothing to back this up, just strikes me as exactly the sort of signing we'd make, cheap, ageing.....
  23. Cantwell will become more effective once Leonard and Gueye learn to stay onside as well. Lack of ability and experience are one thing but that's pretty damn basic. Really limits the offensive outlets when they're straying offside far too often.
  24. They didn't spend much more than us in summer so presumably set aside some of the Clarke cash. If only we'd made a few quid on outgoings that we could reinvest.....oh hang on a minute 🙄
  25. I think we need to persevere with Leonard, it's not going to do him much good if we keep chopping and changing. It's a shame it didn't go in on Saturday when he rattled the bar, I can't help but thinking with a decent run of starts the goals will come though.
