Stella Cooper is an apt name. As in you’d have to have had about 10 of them….

Got to be something to link into Bony M’s Rasputin:

Rob Rob Atkinson
Nigel Pearson’s first sign-ing
He’s a lad that can really play 
Rob Rob Atkinson
He’s Built like a huge machine

When he dribbles forward no-one gets in his way 
 

I’m sure others can do better, or consign this thread to the bin

Don't be so sure.  "Rob, Rob he's got a big nob..........."

Add to that injuries to Randall & Marriott and Pym's fallen out with Daz   .........................

Wait edit this has got Szmodics coming back to haunt us written all over it.

Shame. Only 12 points you say?

It should be a lot more they have been taking the piss for the last 3 years or more.

We are up to 9th and one point off the play offs!

We didn't move anywhere everyone under Birmingham moved up one place

The cold seal pig's ****** him up, and fed him to wolfie before themselves falling foul to a giant cock.

If Luton had scored early, hit the woodwork and forced saves and WE fought back and equalised in the 90+ minute would people be reacting differently?

But yes I agree home form is concerning, we are on a run that is unwanted and hard to shake off mentally. 

I don't think home form is concerning, more painful, I think its a burden that needs to be gone.  The sooner we beat someone at home the better for everyone.

This many pages really?  You get these games where you just don't play well, if you can win and not play well its a good thing, not losing and playing poorly is ok.  You've got to remember we would have lost this 5 nil last season, the defence is much more resilient.   As long as we learn from this we will do ok this season, we're in a better place than I thought we would be TBH, mid table is a good turn around, last years form was where Forrest are.......

I see Swansea having appointed a progressive young manager won 4-0 at Reading, why oh why don’t our club have the imagination to appoint someone like that 

Hahaha they appointed someone who would take the job like 11th choice. 

Bargain he's a quality player been treated poorly by Chelsea. 

Jesus, let's remember we are starting from a very low base.  We will get better as the season draws on I'm not expecting promotion better but I'm expecting a solid finish to the season that we can build on next year.  If you know we're in a religation fight on day one of the season you're mental.

It's a very simple risk equation. Balancing the risk if we keep him - that "this" is all he has, he doesn't develop, etc., vs the risk that if we sell now, we miss out on his potential and don't necessarily get duly rewarded for it. On the other hand, we get £Xm in the bank that we could spend (although with no guarantee that will work out), versus the risk that we have a Ribeiro/Brown situation, where we're offered a moderate fee by a bigger club, don't take it, but then never get that offer again.

I could write an equation if I could be bothered.

Me? I think £3m doesn't get you a lot these days, whereas we know what we have already. I'd be inclined to keep him another year, see how he goes.

But ultimately, the player himself will probably decide.

Absolutely, For me it's already a case of what he's worth today, if you think of him as a striker he's not a good investment as is, but he's got cracking skill and work rate regardless of goals if he's sat in a deeper role.  In that instance given his age he's worth all of the that 5m and some, I would say look at Eze his first QPR full season he scored 4 goals Antoine has scored 5 there is no reason given some decent coaching he cant score a similar amount, he's technically a better bigger player if you exclude goals.  I think there's also the fact the clubs are looking at him, this tells you they see potential, so I say keep him for a year and see how he develops under a decent coach. 

 

Why would we sell him, he's a boy with so much potential, with a decent year of coaching under his belt he could be worth a lot more than 5m, who are we going to buy for 5m to replace him is what you have to ask yourself.

It's always amazed me why this sort of deal is legal.

Respectfully, stop with the strawman. 

Fact is we had prior information on this and were slow to act, that's the point. 

We will see how it pans out, to many people trying to make political miles out of this.  Why I've deleted a load of people on Facebook..

Before anyone gets to excited bath have 5 first team players in Japan 

I was worried about this fixture because of the hammering they got at the weekend.  But Jesus Christ McLaren is a shit manager.  Get hammered 90% of team park the bus and play ugly, ugly QPR did well but park the bus they did not.

Ooofff that was a messy few minutes

When will they go for the Smith onslaught, i.e. launch it L1 stylee ? Best bet for them now.

He's a dangerous option Vs our little defenders

I think this form is going to drag on until mid Feb tbh, our injured players will take a while to get back into the groove, but lets hope for a strong finish to the season.

I think the fight could of been stopped earlier but the guy is a warrior and that alone made the fight go longer than it should. I don't think you can blame the ref because Blackwell was fighting back....his corner should of pulled him out a round or 2 earlier!

Blackwell is a very entertaining fighter to watch and i hope and pray he pulls through..

 

Looks like he will be fine, it was an awesome fight.
