I think Burnley is our last home game. Perhaps we can prevent them being automatically promoted as we did Leeds last season.
No doubt it will be an 8.00pm kick off on the Friday night! |

Cheers Clive & I hope that you were all civil to the referee in the pub!
Yes, we missed 5 chances that we should have scored, with Edwards being the hardest of them, but we created 5 clear goal scoring chances. That is something I couldn't envisage two months ago. Indeed, I said in the pub pre match against Stoke that the only way we would score was from an own goal!
Obviously, it won't be the same number going to Hull midweek, but I expect we've sold at least double the number of tickets I would expect. Hopefully, you have another good night. |

I've no idea how the law is worded or why they don't have to change the 'keeper, but this isn't the first time this has happened.
I'm sure the lawmakers applied some logic in implementing this, but it's outside of my understanding! |

I'm fairly sure it was the outside of his right foot & curled away from the 'keeper.
Not that i would care if it had been a toe poke! |

Clarke-Salter & Fox didn't look very good as a partnership at Swansea.
If Dunne was going to play at right back, Edwards is the natural choice for the right side. Personally I'd have played JCS instead of Fox, but Fox played well against Norwich & Luton. |

Is that true about the best win percentage?
I don't doubt that it is in the EFL, but surely Brian Lee & Martin O'Neill would be higher? Both were managers when your club paid the highest wages in the Isthmian/Conference leagues.
I used to play against the father of Matt Bloomfield in the Ipswich Sunday Morning League & have vaguely followed his career. Is he the main reason that the animosity between Colchester & WW has decreased? [Post edited 18 Jan 12:11]

The same day as the transfer window Brian. I assume 31st January. |

Really? You want Lloyd & Kolli to go out on loan & leave us just with Frey? Or is Dillon going straight into the squad? |

No arguments from me with that Lblock, especially racking up the points quickly, although I think that 52 is too high for the "accepted safety total".
It's the games against the sides below us that concern me rather than those above us! |

My position is that as a supporter & player, I've always regarded the first goal of any season is mathmatically being safe fron relegation. We have a long way to go to achieve this.
What I can't understand though is your continuous choice of needing 53 points to stay up & that we won't draw any games! I would say that avoiding defeat in 15 matches (minimum of 47 points) is more likely to be enough.
Do I think we will do that? No, but there is a very good chance we will win a few, thus increasing the number of games we can lose.
Personally, I don't like the look of next week & I would feel more optimistic if we were playing Sheffield United rather than Wednesday! |

One for us oldies.
Tony Book, captain of Manchester City when they were league champions in 1968, FA Cup winners in 1969 & European Cup Winners Cup winners in 1970 has died aged 90.
He really was a City legend.
RIP Tony & condolences to family & friends |

I think "interesting" applies just for the results, but poor would probably be just as accurate!
Will Plymouth playing an extra game this week be in our favour? |

Two interesting games tonight regarding the bottom end of the table.
Cardiff - Watford
Plymouth - Oxford
When do Portsmouth play either of their matches in hand? |

As a matter of interest, please could you let me know if the standard in the Welsh League now is an improvement/different to the standard of it's predecessor? Other than Bangor leaving the English pyramid system & joining has anything changed?
Any knowledge I have of Welsh non-league football comes from an interest in Bridgend in the 60's due to a Welsh amateur international, Alwyn Morse, moving from Wales & joining Chesham. Then in the early 90's, Andy Yorke, Lee Costa, Ian Mitchell & Chris (Turbo) Townsend travelled from Wales every game to Chesham to win the Isthmian League. |

They certainly took it seriously in my youth. Cardiff reached the semi final of the European Cup Winners Cup in the 67-68 season losing to Hamburg. AC Milan won it after a German double, beating the defending champions Bayern in the semi.
Tottenham lost in the second round to Lyon. |
