Loosey Boy

That’s all we need……Kalas injured (if true)!

Yep - 3pm on a Saturday it is for me

Sounds like he’s in a similar position now, health wise……? he will be OK and back at BCFC soon

Get well soon Nige - come back when you’re back to full health and not before. Look forward to seeing you on the touchline again soon. COYRs

I think that City will be looking for a new manager during this two-week break…..once someone has agreed to join, City will then announce Nige’s departure due to ill health. The firmest answer RG gave during that interview was “No” to the Craig Shakespeare question…..perhaps a sign that Nige won’t be here long term as you’d think City would have been interested, following his departure from Villa Hope I’m wrong as so want Nige to succeed here…..

Would be very odd, especially as it sounds like Reading have already “agreed” to a nine point deduction. 3 points is hardly much of a deterrent for future examples either

The Lino that side certainly didn’t help yesterday afternoon - for their pen, the ref looked at him to help his decision - waiting a while, gave nothing, only for the ref to point to the spot!

Couldn’t agree more ? Give Nige the time and resources and I still believe he will sort us. Just hope that his illness doesn’t result in him walking away….

SL has simply got to back NP - whether this is in recruiting another coach to his management team or doing whatever we can (subject to FFP) in January. What we can’t do is continue to chop and change the manager - we need stability and build over a period of time…..I’m still hopeful that Nige will sort us if he’s given the chance. We always knew that this season was going to be frustrating - we can’t spend the money that Ashton and Johnson wasted. If NP had the warchest spent by LJ, I think we’d be top six. Yesterday was a new low and having been at the game yesterday, supporters are turning against the team, rather than NP.

Think Nige’s relationship with Shakespeare is longer standing than with Smith and so hopefully this would help us convince him to come, IF (& it is if), we are actually looking to recruit further in our back room team?

John Terry to return as the main man? ?

I can see Nige walking away on medical grounds……he doesn’t seem in good health and will probably think; “I don’t need this sh@t!” Found it strange that he did all the pre-game interviews etc and then the next day, he’s not week enough to travel with the squad. I hope he doesn’t but something doesn’t feel right…..

Get Tinman on the touchline tomorrow

Right…..for all the 3,000 of us travelling tomorrow, let’s get behind the boys, Curtis and Nige from the start for the whole 90 minutes!!! Get well soon big Nige ?? COYRs

Will it be POTD? - Derby sold 3.3k tickets and it was then still announced as POTD…..think they ended up with 3.6k there a couple of weeks ago

Are there any pubs for away fans close to the train station or is it a case of heading straight to the ground?

Think Martin needs a rest….nothing to lose in giving AW and NW a go up front with Scott or Palmer in behind…..

Let’s see - expect 3 or 4 changes based on tonight…….

Agreed - will be interesting to see the starting 11 on Saturday - think we will see a number of changes! Personally, I’d like to see us back to a back four with Martin dropped and then Wiemann and Wells up front with Scott or dare I say, Palmer playing behind them.

Vyner should be no where near the 1st team - absolute liability…..

Terrible defending FFS

It doesn’t but there are only 736 left of our allocation now

Think the article is inaccurate - our allocation was 1,700 and so 960 sold as of now - likely to go through 1,000 by tomorrow I would think which is OK considering it’s mid-week plus the fact that we are likely to be taking 3000+ to Coventry on Saturday

Agreed today……was saying exactly the same…..until he scored ?

A very bold decision to bring him on…..would have gone for COD or Scott but now we’ve won, will have been a good experience for him ?
