Excellent analysis, Harry. Spot on. it will never happen whilst Nepo Baby is chairman. He is clueless but Daddy will never take his toys away. And there is no board of directors to speak of who will challenge his decisions.

The old phrase “He’s lost the dressing room” springs to mind. That performance plus what LM said in the interview after is enough evidence for me. Cardiff scored from their first corner, regardless of all Pat Mountain’s coaching, says it all. LM is out of his depth as a coach without a DoF to do the hard stuff off the field (which Tinnion isn’t capable of). But whilst JL is “leading” the club his ego won’t let that happen.

Seb Palmer Houlden was sent to Newport on a season’s loan under Nige’s management. Isn’t it a case of horses for courses based on individuals’ needs rather than one size fits all (apologies for the mixed metaphors!)

I’ve been following him since he was at Colchester, my home town club. I was really excited when City signed him, then a combination of LJ not knowing what to do with him and Swiss Toni being persuaded to sell him to Posh when he wanted to stay summed up that pair. I always thought he had the potential to be another Jamie Vardy with his pace and eye for goal.

In the early 70s I used to go to Cold Blow Lane (wonderful name) with a mate who was a Lions fan. In those days many of the supporters worked in the docks, there was a great bond between the fans and the players and brilliant humour in the shouting and singing. They had a reputation then for aggression, I think after they smashed up the coach of a visiting team (might have been Portsmouth) but I never saw anything serious. I think it really kicked off later on that decade.

What a brilliant forum this is. So glad I’m a member of such a great group of people.

Mine is for Birmingham but it was in the Expired folder on my iPhone! I’ve rescued it now.

I recall when Maxwell drowned the Oxford crowd sang “When the red, red Robert comes bob-bob-bobbing along”. They hated him.

Thanks Dave. I didn’t see that instruction, where was it posted?

Is the Pompey game going to be on Robins TV? And if so, are the Robins’ Rewards used for the cancelled Reading stream going to be redeemed? Sorry if this is publicised elsewhere, I can’t find it.

I like the fact he doesn't understand about baked beans for breakfast. What would he make of fried Mars bars?

I was expecting David Brent to walk in to the strains of "Simply The Best".
