Needs to be in a front two with Wells, that's where he was at his best, he can't play the lone role

As heard in an interview he enjoys playing with Wells. Today in particular would have been a good day for the Conway/ Wells partnership. Hopefully Nahki is back soon.

No monopoly square, but the Scum do have their own version of Cluedo.

Spoiler alert: It was Miss Scarlett, in the Mansfield End with the tent spike.

They must be gutted that Bristol Manor Farm were given a square.

Stop the War march starting at 1245, route is 'Hyde Park to the US Embassy'. Might be a fair few road closures etc. - worth considering if you are thinking of going by bus or cab https://www.stopwar.org.uk/article/statement-november-11th-national-demonstration-for-palestine/

27 bus goes the other way from Paddington avoiding Hyde park

Yup, imagine walking will be fine. Imagine the roads will be clogged up though if not able to walk

Yes 1/2 mile further than from Temple Meads to Ashton gate

I’d imagine Christine (Lampard) would know also. And probably Frank Snr 

and Uncle Harry?

The Puma Hi Vis football will be in use for all EFL games starting with tonights  Leicester v Leeds fixture. The ball will be used for ALL games until mid February. Not just as in previous seasons low light/poor visibility.

Now known as Bristol Street Motors trophy with immediate effect.

Not my choice either but knows the club having been under 23s manager, was going to be part of the succession planning back in the day. Don't know what went wrong, prob a threat to LJ? 

Can see this happening.

Gary Owers mentioned him on SOTC tonight when asked about possible candidates.

Lisa Knights should go on. She’s competent.

Why? She's CEO of Bristol flyers. Dave Barton is the City Communication manager

Talk Sport is a far better show nowadays than Savage and 606. Infact Jordan will debate Lansdown quite happily with you. 

Exactly no love lost there.  In the past he gas called SL a "cheat" thrown a cup of coffee over him and criticised his business model

Well if you can't get on 606 then there's always White & Jordan on TALKSPORT tomorrow

A this stage yes for having a couple of banter years if nothing else

Think Colin would find it quite ironic if he ended up with us, and I'd think he'd seriously consider it if offered . But he won't be and it looks as though QPR are in for him

We started well first 10 mins 

Looked the much better team

Been a good game

Max let us down there

But saved us minutes earlier. The trouble is Max has no competition.

Nobody has said Neil Warnock till the end of the season?!!!!! ....  Yet? 

I was thinking Colin. But there isn't a vacancy. NP for me & I'm not sure if SL wants to sell the club that he would get rid of Nigel. He'd leave that to the new owners and/or NP would walk. NP doesn't need the hassle He knows he's got the majority of  fans behind him as he did/has at Leicester. Interesting that for the Keicester game I think fir the 1st time I can recall I saw half & half manager scarves

I think people underestimate or fail to understand the value of someone like Nakhi off the pitch as well as on.

I have been told that he devotes a large amount of time to talking to the young players coming through and being available for advice. 

On the pitch it's often his running and the space he creates that allows others to play, I hope I am wrong but I think the latter will become more obvious if he is out for a length of time. He doesn't go down easily and he doesn't stay down unnecessarily, so I am afraid that a lot of that workhorse stuff may be falling on Cornick's shoulders for a few weeks.

Spot on. Yes he hasn't scored the goals we would like but it's his whole round contribution that's so important as Nigel has alluded to on many occasions.

Not expecting anything. Already into the international break mode.

As bad as that sounds. I don’t think I’ve ever witnessed us get a result against Leeds.

No but Nigel has only lost 2 games against Leeds (11 played) So hopefully that success rate will increase tomorrow.

Be very surprised if he doesn't get a call-up to the senior Scotland squad in the next 12 months. 

Looks an elite prospect to me. Two quality finishes this evening, and a match winning performance. 

He'd already been training with the senior squad prior to his injury. 

I'd like to see Conway and Wells on to renew their partnership

Let's be real, we are a nothing club going nowhere. After years of false starts it's a wonder why anyone bothers.

People bother because come hell or high water they still love their club. Tested at times but still there. If you can't take the heat then being a  football supporter  is obviously not for you.

Wow, how was a penalty not given for the Sykes foul. Wasn't sure from the South stand, but the linesman was in line with it. Shocking decision.

And the BBC Sport in game text had it as a penalty

Remember when the 15ers signed Timmy Abraham, expecting him to be as good as Tammy ?

Not sure if he even made an appearance for them ?!

Made 4 appearances for the 15ers. Now playing at Boreham Wood.

As I said earlier, I really like Clarke.  I want Sam Bell to watch how Clarke stays involved in a game, he’s rarely quiet.

Bought to Sunderland by Lee Johnson. On loan similar to how he bought Tammy to us , but was able to make Jack permanent.

He’s worked hard with little reward, but I’ve never been convinced playing as the lone striker gets the best out of him. Put him alongside Conway again and he would be back on the goal trail. I doubt that’ll happen though as it’d involve reverting to three at the back in all probability. 

Agree Nahki works hard/ presses and TC scores the goals. They had a good partnership going before the injuries.

He’s just turned 17, Sleepy, and has plenty of scope for development to come both physically and technically. If SL had spent an iota of the Scott windfall, Yeboah probably wouldn’t have the chances he’s getting now but we are where we are and his raw effort can’t be questioned. 

I think Phil Alexander in his interview said that we had already committed  money from the Scott deal before he actually left.
