I expect Burnley to come down and probably look to get value from him on the pitch rather than sell him.

2 games in short succession and Huddersfield are playing for their Championship future and we are in the beach. Could see it happening

Agree generally but as he is still only 23 would be keen to give him next season if we are sticking with Manning, a coach who likes him, to see if he kicks on

Popped up with some goals against good teams when he has had space to attack into. Don’t think he is as bad as made out on here, improves his decision making ala Semenyo there is a player there.

How much are we getting from Bournemouth for Anis then?

This debate was completely lacking in substance. If we play like we did today we will NEVER get 16 wins home and away. Listen to the pod every game but this was utter tosh to listen to.

Very average performance. But I think 9 points clear with 9 games to go and a much better GD will probably see us safe for this season with a few points picked up here and there.

Robins TV: “Dickie puts City DESERVEDLY in front” Glad we are up but that is comical!

Is James injured, or frozen out?

Yep, knows the players and sure he would set up in a way that actually fit the side. Same can’t be said about the incumbent Head Coach

Joe Allen, who I thought had retired, beating a man for pace down the wing shows how uninterested we are

Funny, FBC spent a large part of the pod each week discussing NP’s future when he was manager. Used to be that each of the pods were polar opposite in their views, which wasn’t so bad when listening to both after the game. Now it seems FBC in general have U-turned on criticising the board or management, guest dependent.

3 peeps contributors seemed optimistic to me with the performance in their pod and I couldn’t understand why. Haven't listened to FBC in full yet bar a snippet live, but judging by the comments on here about a certain contributor’s comments, and the title of the pod, I’m expecting similar views from some.

Listening to some of the views on the podcasts today is insufferable. We conceded 3 goals and a penalty all down the flanks and we changed absolutely nothing to try and nullify this, even after leading twice! I remember a number of times Pearson hooking a defender if he was getting exposed or putting another player there up support and to sure it up. Absolutely no risk of that happening last night. Mind-blowing the amount of comments saying “that’s on the players” or “can’t blame the manager for that” or even “Ipswich were too good”. Anyone with half a brain could see where we were getting exposed following their subs and Manning did nothing about it tactically or by making changes for circa 35 minutes until the end of the game. Saw a comment saying James has fallen out with Manning. It is likely hot air, but I wouldn’t be surprised. The players were absolutely hung out to dry last night by Manning’s tactics after putting themselves in a great position to win the game.

I think we should have kept him on and brought on Roberts.
