Top Robin

On his day he is excellent...trouble is that day is not often enough.

It's good to revisit this thread each day to get an update on a possible signing!

Not sure it will be, Sheff U and Luton /Cov are near certainties to go down leaving only one relegation spot for the others to avoid

Most said that about Brentford, Bournemouth and Brighton

Coventry definitely do too. They are dirty, made 16 fouls last night and it should have been more and then they hit it long to Gykores. Their GK spent about 3 mins taking each goal kick and his play acting despite not getting a bang on the head was incredibly embarrassing. Horrible style of football.

Sometimes I wish we would get stuck in more even if it meant giving away fouls 

I don't think it's dirty, it's just playing hard and passionately in a massively important game.

As many of you know, I have felt miserable all season. 

Cov and Luton making the play off final just just reinforces how poor we have been this season - we weren't even close to them.

They were one of the worst teams at the gate this year, 

I think the word deluded is rather strong , there is no way in the world they would play with this intensity at Wembley 

They had a different manager when they played us at AG

They had a different manager then

The sort of team, I believe, Nigel is trying to produce.

Wish he'd hurry up

What irks me is that they are in that position and we aren't. 

When we played at Luton a few weeks ago, I thought they were the best team we had played this season.

Strong all over the park and bags of energy.

They've got the finesse of a 300lb gorilla on ketimine. But I expect we'd learn to love the style if it meant we swapped places with them.

Gotta disagree....for big lads they are pretty skillful. 

Luton showing that height upfront can be an advantage. 

Tbh they are a big side all round.

Let's hope he gives an honest, waffle free assesment of the season just gone plus a strategy as to how he will improve things for next season.

The Mehmeti's & Cornick's will not push you to the Premier League - full stop.

We need to up our recruitment game.

They were both excellent players for their respective previous clubs.......I still believe they will both come good and unlike you, I haven't written them off.

How on earth can it have nothing to do with it? 

My expectations will be the same whatever ins or outs we make.

next 3 years we will be playing in the prem

Whilst it would be great for us to get in the Prem.....next 3 years will mean that will mean Nige has has 6 years and I'm not sure I can wait that long.

Surely it's a discussion when we know the ins and outs?

That should have nothing to do with it.

The interesting thing now is that expectation levels are going back up to where they were under LJ.

Next season it will finally be Nige's squad and he'll probably have some cash to spend to finish a big part of the rebuild.

Everyone at the club will be talking about 'pushing on' and 'challenging in the top half' etc.

The negative is that there will be less patience for poor form when it does arise. 

I think a bottom half finish will be sewn as failure, which adds pressure.

We can't fully judge until we've got the transfer business done but as it stands now I'd be hoping for an encouraging top 10 finish with signs of further improvement. Anything better would be a bonus obvs.

I think Niges expectations will be greater as by next season he will have created that team 

Auto......off the scale orgasmic

Play offs.....excellent

Position 10 to 6.....acceptable

Below 10....failure

A good end to the season despite the injuries we’ve had etc ,so well done to the lads and everyone at BCFC .

Also everyone on OTIB who make this whole thing a pleasurable experience throughout the season and to JB for the match day build ups , very informative, thankyou.

I hope everyone has a great summer and look forward to the new season when we’ll do it all again . 

 

I'm looking forward all those incomings over the summer

Millwall blowing it!

Chris Martin has the bit between his teeth today, fair play. I did always like him a lot 

For us he was slow and didn't score enough.....nice bloke though!

Absolutely past it, all he does is run around.

I mean when he came on all he actually did was provide an excellent assist, have a goal disallowed, come as close as anyone to equalising after a brilliant run & put one on the obnoxious Connor Roberts.

Bloke’s a total passenger, get rid Pearson.

More often would be nice

Hate to say it but a great goal

Excited with this team. Really strong bench with plenty of versatility. Glad Pring is back at LB. Plenty of pace and movement up top with James/King to provide cover, tenacity and control. 

Hopeful for 3pts - COYR

Yes
