  1. Probably going to rain. It's not cold. BP on a Tuesday night in January is cold.
  2. Goalkeepers can be recalled at anytime and any player can during January. Edit: link: http://www.football-league.co.uk/regulations/20130704/section-6-players_2293633_2125731#52
  3. Coventry have just released a goalkeeper. I can see us signing a full pro backup. No discredit to Luke Simpson, who I've rated when I've seen, but he needs some games under his belt and he won't get that warming the bench. Edit: a pro backup would also give us a bit of stability should Oxley be recalled for whatever reason.
  4. Sounds like he's devastated about something else too.
  5. That's a real shame. There aren't enough places to fix flags at BP unless covering seats which obviously has its own issue. The ideal place would be over the 1st tier of the main stand, but I doubt there is anything to tie them to. Shame really, can't say it adds to atmosphere but makes more of a statement of 'home' and can encourage that siege mentality.
  6. Maybe the suggestion to put some flags on the construction site fence would help combat this and see a return of flags. I know one bloke always brings his as he sits at the top of a set of stairs, shame we can't get more.
  7. Finished 5-4. There was a charity match at the Ricoh today with Coventry fans saying 8000 are there.
  8. Attendance 2204 today, 5-4 to Coventry at the moment. Can't see them keeping 2000+ all season, imagine it'll be 1000 on a Tuesday. 10000ish their attendances last season.
  9. I wouldn't take it so personally. Some of latics best players have effectively been hounded out of the club by the vocal "boo boy" minority, some of whom are playing successfully a level above. This.
  10. In addition to the above, try the PALS service if she is an outpatient at a hospital. Sorry to hear you are having a bad time, all the best.
  11. Walsall deserved the win, but a stonewall penalty denied at 0-0 could have changed the game.
  12. Hitler represented one of the great leaders of the 20th century, winning 49.7million or 98.9% of the vote in the 1938 German elections. Discuss the positive implications of this vote and its outcome.
  13. This, Sadly, hoofing it up won't work when our front line has an average height of 5 foot 11.
  14. By current U21 squad, that could be any nationality.... Is he called Eddie? Cos I've heard of a Latvian bloke who is alright and in their U21 squad.
  15. Do they have layers? Cos :censored: me he gets some strange conclusions.
  16. I disagree with this, but I was a big fan of Brown's on Tuesday. Meh, work needed all round but massive potential.
  17. He's graduated to the "Main stand moaners" (sorry Ackey) but seriously, three games in? Johnson out.
  18. We lost 1-0 and had a stonewall penalty turned down. I don't think they created much more than their goal, maybe one or two other chances but we kept them out pretty well I thought, they didn't look like scoring more than one. As for us, disappointing performance, Tarky was excellent. Didn't think Brown did much to silence the boo boys, got the ball caught up in his feet too many times and I was surprised we didn't take him off for Rodgers. I've said elsewhere that Byrne isn't the answer and today proved that. Thought Smeltz was good when he came on but he didn't see too much of the ball. I'd like to see more of Rodgers, he had more impact then Wes but you can't start him. Not convinced by Rooney or Charlie Mac, shame JCH is out for a month because I think we'll miss him. Baxter looked disinterested, something else on the mind? I still think this is a good squad and with nine new players it is going to take a while for them to settle and know each others games.
